The Risotto with Lobster was fantastic.The Black Label Burger was great as well as the crispy yet thick bacon and caramelized Maui onions were simply wonderful.

Short ribs and eggs $15 were good. Linguini with prawns and Calamari $18 also good. Can be a bit crowded inside.

Vanessa Burns

I've been coming here for years and I seem the same thing over and over again. The insalata with vinegarette and pasta bolongnese. Two classics and always perfect. And amazing creative desserts .

Jon Chan

An excellent place all around or lunch , dinner , and late night . I always get the Pescatore (red sauce ) and be careful to not eat too much of their great bread

Therese Bagsit

Don't drink alcohol ? Brian at the bar can make you flavorful virgin cocktails . Virgin mojito was delicious - complete with mint leaves - and not too sweet.

Michael Reid

Pasta , veal , and all your Italian favorites done well . Great people watching from their patio . Excellent pastry chef .

Adam Ashley

Great place! The atmosphere is 'hip casual ', the italian bakery is outstanding. The chicken Lasagna is the best. Reservations are strongly recommended.

N Conklin

The lunch menu has a steak sandwich with a chapotle dry rub (+ french fries ) that's totally addicting. My wife swears by the butternut squash raviolis - which are definitely unique to this rest.

Peter Lorimer
