    Noise level was terrific, especially due to picking a restaurant to join some hard-of-hearing company. Well-rounded wine list & great, attentive service. A white table cloth type of spot. IMO, Food was mediocre. Not bad but not outstanding Italian. A slightly bathroom-smell surrounding our table was notable to me. (bathroom is right behind one main seating area). Not stinky just notable. Overall, Great location with decent prices for a quiet, & pleasant easy Italian meal.

    Went for a casual lunch. Shared the grilled octopus, the Chilean sea bass and the budino di limone for dessert. Everything was well prepared and well presented. Great job!

    Food was a little bland but of you don't like a lot of seasoning you will enjoy it.
