good food (tried the Spaghetti al Frutti di Mare al Cartoccio & the lamb shank special) & service and balcony seating is very cute (though limited!)

Very good menu. Traditional Italian. Home made pasta, spicy seafood and homemade desserts. Awesome. Great service and violinist at your table!!

We've been here twice, and we loved everything we tried. The food's delicious and the service is great. They even have a nice, old guy who goes around playing his violin to set the mood :)

Their fresh pastas are excellent—some of the best I’ve ever had!! Their sauces are all delicious, and desserts are to die for—especially their chocolate hazelnut cake 😋. Their servers are great!

Some of the best service I've ever received at a restaurant. Exquisite food. Go on a Friday or Saturday night to enjoy being serenaded by your own personal violinist.

Great $20 brunch (app, entree, drink) in Georgetown! The seafood omelette can't be beat! Read more

They have a great "sunset" menu which is price fixed at $19/person. Comes with a number of choices and their home-made tiramisu. Starts at 4:30pm during the week

The pork special with mushrooms, spinach, and fried potatoes was out of this world. Awesome food!

Bloody Mary and brunch was pretty disappointing and just okay. Otherwise service and second-floor seating were fantastic.

The Gremalota was delicious they also have an expansive wine list

Food is mediocre.....except the salmon cake sandwich which was moist and well seasoned. The lobster ravioli was so-so and the Picci Alla Piccollo (spaghetti 'n meat sauce) was really nice.

Fantastic homemade pastas! Wonderful atmosphere

Don't sit in the window under the stairs. Fear of flying trash undermines the otherwise great experience.

Staff can be rude and sometimes leave you waiting. However the atmosphere was stunning and cozy. Good for date night but not recommended for groups

Their seafood pastas are amazing!!! Great service too!!!!!

Mushroom ravioli was excellent, but oil olive sarved with bread was old and discusting. We were sitted in main room, which has no air flow and smells bad. Overall looks this place looks dirty to me.

Wine by the glass pours are pretty generous.

All of it was good

Nice food, reasonable prices. Usually busy.

Great food. Terrible service. Server never checked in with us during meal and waited 20 min after dinner plates were cleared before we just flagged down hostess to order dessert.

The desserts are amazing

Just excellent. Great food!

The food is pretty good here, but I couldn't get over how rude the manager was to both customers and the staff around him.

They were out of beef to make the Italian burger :-( Small menu and not a kid friendly menu.

F this place, they only take a maximum of 3 cards. Horrible for big groups. Don't come here

Alem das sobremesas deliciosas, as massas sao frescas e cozinhadas ao ponto certo, bem recheadas e saborosas, e os garçons mega atenciosos! Os preços para almoço sao bem mais em conta !
Nacho SierraSeptember 27, 2012
Mezcla de decoración italo-española. La cocina está conseguida. El trato es, como suele ocurrir en USA, bastante correcto. Tienen una pequeña terraza en la que disfrutar la comida/cena.

Deliciosa sobremesa
