    Great spot. Spinach Fusselini was awesome, as was the fried quail and steak tartare. Pizza dough is fabulous, but we felt that the clam pizza doesn't need the Lardon as it doesn't add anything to the dish. We suggest guanciale or chorizo in its place,

    I really enjoyed everything I had. The fennel and sausage pizza was delish and the endive salad was perfect.

    Dinner with my son, such a lovely time. We love coming here the food is always great! Best ever is our favorite mushroom toast, delicious! We ordered the clam pizza with fontina cheese which was perfect and also my favorite the grilled swordfish over bits of butternut squash in a creamy sauce. Oh and don’t forget to order the sourdough ice cream for dessert. You will not regret! Can’t wait to dine here again.
