Had a very lovely experience dining here! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with just the right blend of comfort and style. The food was absolutely fantastic—every dish was flavorful, beautifully presented, and exceeded expectations. A special shoutout to our waitress, Madina, who truly elevated the experience. She was attentive, kind, and had such a wonderful energy that made us feel so welcome. Her service was impeccable, and she added a personal touch that made our visit unforgettable. A perfect spot for great food, great vibes, and exceptional service!

One of many restaurants, several of which are Italian, on this street. We both had pizzas, which were large and tasty, washed down with a bottle of the house wine. My wife had a tiramisu which she said was very good and I just had a coffee. At the end we were offered glasses of limoncello which was a nice touch. The service was friendly and efficient. Well worth a visit.
