Yeah, there’s no way you can mess up a lasagna, but the lasagna was disgusting.

Staff were very friendly and checked up on us. One of the closest feel for Italian cuisine in town. The tasty dishes were not heavy and the dessert was not overly sweet. The 4% city fee was unfortunate but otherwise overall a good experience.

gemeli pasta wasn’t well done, red wine didn’t seem to be reduced enough or at all so it tasted way too boozy. seafood pasta was salty but otherwise was great.
