Stumbled upon this fantastic Italian gem! The bolognese pasta was perfectly al dente with a rich, hearty sauce, while the funghi pizza had an amazing blend of fresh mushrooms and crispy crust. Christiano provided exceptional service, making us feel welcomed throughout our visit. The restaurant’s charming atmosphere is enhanced by thoughtful details like complimentary mosquito repellent for outdoor dining comfort. The elegant decor creates the perfect setting for an authentic Italian dining experience. Will definitely return for more delicious meals!

Wow. One of the best meals I’ve had in a while. Unique, surprising, delicious flavors in every dish. Had the beet yogurt salad, calamari, roasted totoa white fish and each was exceptional. Also the best mocktail I’ve had ever (O% gin/hibiscus). Beautiful ambiance and lovely service. Major recommend if in San Jose!
