The food at the restaurant was delicious, but the portion sizes were not very large. We received only ten medium-sized tortellini with our order, and the octopus dinner special felt more like a generous appetizer. However, the dinner salads were a good value and everything tasted great. The service was just okay, as the waitress seemed distracted due to the busyness of the restaurant. The noise level was also very high, making it difficult to have a conversation. Even though we were seated in the back of the restaurant, the live music made it hard to hear each other.

I'm not sure what was happening last night, but the restaurant was completely out of popular dishes like lasagna, penne, and tiramisu. There were hardly any customers, and the service was really strange (we had a reservation for four but were seated at a table for two, etc). At one point, someone brought out raw seafood on a slimy plate to show us for a "future menu" while we were eating dessert (which was totally gross). I used to like this place, but I was really disappointed.
The food at this restaurant, whether it was the pizza, steak, or pasta, was extremely salty. The service was inconsistent, and we had a hard time getting the check. The outdoor atmosphere was pleasant, but the unnecessary lounge singer made it hard to have a conversation.
Whether the pizza, the steak or the pasta, everything was very, very salty. Service was immaculate, with great difficulty getting the check. Outdoor atmosphere was nice, not sure they needed the lounge singer, which made it easy to hear conversation. Book a table now
This little Italian gem in Downtown Evanston is my GO TO spot for homemade, delicious pasta and Italian fare! They not only have amazing food and great service, they have an affordable wine list hand selected by owner Marco!
The restaurant had a nice outdoor dining atmosphere. The food was delicious, but the service was a bit slow. Despite that, I would definitely go back.
Went for lunch. Cool atmosphere, delicious food, very friendly and accommodating waitstaff and reasonably priced. A new goto place in Evanston!
I really enjoyed it and highly recommend it. It may not be as popular, but it's definitely worth a visit! Book a table now
Food was excellent. Loved the $10 pitcher of mimosa! Service was good. Perfect Sunday brunch spot!
