Absolutely wonderful food. One of the servers (he had eye glasses and a mustache) was the highlight of the evening. He was incredibly friendly and made a wonderful wine recommendation. One of the other servers did roll his eyes and sigh at us because we don't speak Italian but I won't take any stars away from my rating because of that, since everything else was so good!

We ate here last week on our way South. We chose this place because of it's well cured cuisine. Very friendly professional staff. Tasty and well prepared local food. We went for the mixed antipasti in order to taste several preparations. Then we had the Milanese chop all accompanied with glasses of local wine. We will be back.
