Mathieu PlancheApril 9, 2012My absolute favorite is the Focaccino ! You won't find anything like it elsewhere !
Their daily specials are worth discovering. Posted on their twitter & webpage at 5pm.
Ryan McMahonMarch 21, 2015The burrata was very good; although, it's hard to mess that up. Lamb ragu was good not great
Lizzy MangoldAugust 17, 2010Wine charged by how many quarters you drink of a bottle. Amazing. Food is really good, the gnocchi special is almost always delish.
NidJune 19, 2010one word. BURRATA!come here Friday evening throughout Sundays to have some great mouth watering ball of cheese! you wont be disappointed!

Sarah NelsonNovember 21, 2011simple, inexpensive italian. cozy atmosphere, friendly service. frequent often.
If the Buratta Mozzarella is on the Specials menu, get it!
All the food is excellent but stick to the specials for delicious homemade pasta
Best Calzone I have ever had. It comes with house made marinara
The roast chicken is even better than before if you can believe that. Insalata Mista & Roast Chicken. Great lunch!
Steve IsaacsAugust 2, 2009Great brunch. Get the Eggs Polpettini: eggs covered in marinara sauce and little meatballs. Wash it down with a perfect Bloody Mary.- Simmy PappachenSeptember 1, 2011Looked good but only had dessert there. Cure place gotta back and check out the Pizza
Order one of the berry infused lemonades. They're refreshing and will last longer because of the tartiness:)
A.E. RathlakisJune 13, 2013Would not recommend. Made us wait at the hot bar for 25 min saying there were no tables. Then brought us to a back room which had ac and tons of empty tables and already in use with people eating.
Paige CJanuary 1, 2013Absolutely appalled by their lack of service and caring. Had reservations for a large party at 10pm, kept us waiting until 11pm and did not even apologize or attempt to compensate. Very rude staff.
Are you Italian? Do you miss a good pizza? Lil' Frankie's is the answer.
MichelleAugust 28, 2016Service is HORRIBLE and the Salsiccia pizza has one small piece of sausage per slice.
