Description

Founded by Paola Pedrignan to share generational culinary traditions, the restaurant focuses on simplicity and authentic Italian flavors. Since the space is small with limited seating, it remains quiet enough for easy conversation during date nights or casual lunches. The kitchen serves flavorful classics like calamari and a highly praised Cacio e Pepe, which you can pair with drinks from the full bar. Outside, sidewalk seating offers a relaxed street-side option, while the indoor experience is backed by attentive staff and a soundtrack of vintage 60s, 70s, and 80s tunes.
