Description



While the kitchen serves Italian fare with gluten-free options, the experience divides opinion. Supporters praise the unpretentious elegance, reliable service, and wine selection, while others call the prices too high. Because the space is petite, a full house generates intense chatter and tight seating—an environment that either delivers a vibrant city energy or a loud, cramped evening depending on the diner.
