The best restaurant in Northern Pinellas County. Never anything but a truly well prepared meal. Chef Massimo attends to it. We have been going for years. It’s a bit pricey for the steaks in particular, but as a retired airline pilot neighbor concluded, it was the best steak he’d ever eaten. And he had traveled widely in his career. Not just Italian dishes, but excellent fish and steaks. Wonderful wine list, great desserts. Simply yummy.
