    The pulled mozzarella was delicious. The pasta was average. Good but not amazing. The calamari was lack luster. Not a bad spot for the vibes which were upbeat and fun but not my favorite dining food experience. Service was excellent though. Overall we enjoyed ourselves.

    Good food in a homey bar-like setting. Service was good, although I'll never understand why an "authentic" pizza place only offers Heineken zero instead of Peroni zero as their only non alcoholic beer choice. 🤔 Arancini was tasty but a bit more breading forward than I'm used to. 7/10 Margherita pizza was tasty, with great crust and a perfect cook. I would have liked a little more basil. 9/10 I'll give it another go sometime soon.
