On New Year's Day, we dined at this establishment. I selected this restaurant for its authentic Italian cuisine, which was quite enjoyable. The pizza was particularly delicious. Additionally, we sampled the gnocchi Bolognese and fries, as well as the Cheney balls with mushrooms, all of which were very tasty. However, the service could use improvement, and the atmosphere left much to be desired. Despite this, I would rate the restaurant four stars primarily due to the quality of the food.
