Love this place! Super cute restaurant with very friendly owner/staff. They have English menus.

The suace and spice on the food is done just right to highlight the flavors of the food. The chicken was moist and tender, not at all chewy, that allowed the flavor of the olive oil and truffle to really shine. Deliscious food, friendly place, I highly recommend it. In fact, I'm going back again soon bringing more friends.

My husband and I came here for lunch back in October. The setting and the ambiance of this…read morerestaurant were both outstanding. The dining room is light and bright with an absolutely incredible view and some vaguely Alice in wonderland vibes. For food we opted to do the à la carte option as I preferred to do the vegetarian items (though I'm not a vegetarian) and you had to do the same tasting menu across the entire table. Truthfully, I found my dishes to be too rich and just ok while my husband's courses were pretty wonderful. The coffee pici pasta and wild boar tortelli were specific stand outs. Wonderful experience in an idyllic location but would go with the non vegetarian options if we were to go back.

A mixed grill of different local beefs cooked rare on a hot plate at the table. Lightly garnished, but maximally stunning. World class meal, top notch service and peaceful atmosphere. This is why we save vacation days and frequent flier miles. Enjoy!

The host is very warm and welcoming. The menu has English descriptions We ordered: Ravioli con fiori di zucchini, stracciatella e pomodorini: It was delicious and they divided into 2 plates as our appetizer. All ingredients fresh and soft bread to clean it all up in the end. Costolette di Agnello con verdure di stagione: These lamb pops were thick and juicy with a very tasty crumb and herb crust. Amazing flavor combinations, bravo. Guancette di Maiale Brasate e pure di patate: Braised pork cheeks with mashed potatoes This was a very flavorful dish as well! The meat just falls apart and when combined with some of the potatoes makes for a delicious mouthful! Finished off with a Tiramisu Everything we tried was perfect. We gave 4 stars due to our server being worth about 2 stars. He was obviously treating us poorly and ignoring us due to the fact that we are Americans. Acting very distant and not helpful. He was very polite and helpful to the Italian families around us. He took their orders before ours, when they sat much later than us and he was very short when dealing with our table. He never checked on our table and we had to order dessert from the busboy. The rest of the serving staff was delightful.

We could not have found a nicer place to have lunch!
