Description



Named after a Guns N’ Roses album, the restaurant pairs a rock 'n' roll spirit with a feel reminiscent of a Florentine trattoria. The owner personally runs the front of house on a low-key block, keeping the service pace relaxed. The menu includes classic bolognese, spinachini, and dishes like Italian sausage pasta with a hearty chew, alongside rotating specials like homemade gnocchi. You can pair your meal with a half-liter of wine and finish with their highly regarded panna cotta.
