It’s too jammed with tables and overbooked with people crammed in the vestibule waiting for tables. Even seated at a table felt claustrophobic. I’ll carry out but I can’t go into that mosh pit again.

The wood fired pizzas are delicious, but so is the calamari and other Italian favorites. Kid friendly with a very nice wine list

Nice find for us and our friends. Pizzas were excellent. Shareable - but we didn't :) Large salads are delicous and large enough for 2. Seemed like server was new and didn't quite know the menu - however she was nice and all overall good experience.

Great food in Northbrook. The only thing I didn’t love was that its so loud in there. I shared the Kale salad and Ricotta pizza with a friend. We had some gluten free friends with us and they had a lot of options available. I did notice the back room was not as appealing. Luckily we’ve always sat in the front.
