Excellent! We loved…read moreeverything about our dining experience. We dined mid-week and the restaurant was bustling. We were quickly seated for our reservation, and our server was friendly & attentive. We started off with a delectable appetizer special of burrata with heirloom tomatoes, pesto and olive tapenade. The tangy tapenade really complimented the creamy burrata. We were also served the softest french bread, which sopped up the pesto so nicely. We were lucky enough to get a bite of all 4 dinner entrees on the table. I ordered one of the daily specials, the Saltimbocca. The chicken/prosciutto combo was so flavorful in the white wine sauce. The portion was plentiful, I could have taken a doggy bag, but devoured it bite by bite. I was thankful to have made this choice - score! Hubs ordered the Diavola pizza, with crisp pepperoni and pickled serranos. Either the serranos or red pepper sauce gave it quite the kick, not overly, but deliciously. It was perfectly crispy! Family ordered Carbonara and the lamb ragu. Both great portions, very flavorful! Our dinners came with a salad, which was a perfectly lightly dressed compliment to the appetizer and mains. We drove quite awhile in 5:00 traffic to get here, but it was well worth it. We savoured every bite!

No reservations. There was 1 spot open in the small dedicated lot and then I found a spot on the street. Recommend coming in fewer vehicles if possible. No reservation at peak dinner time (5:30) on a Wednesday, the host (and manager?) found a spot for us promptly anyway and he was super kind and our server for the night. Preschooler was asleep in my arms, but we made it work. We ordered: 1 rose cider (sweet but not too sweet), 1 pulpo (grilled octopus!) starter, 1 boscaiola pasta for the preschooler (boxed leftovers), 1 spring ravioli (more Italian name), and 1 rabbit with polenta entree. Each main came with salad and meal started with bread and whipped butter. We were offered a kid menu option of pasta with alfredo, marinara, or bolognese sauce, but opted for normal menu so we could bring back leftovers. We loved the pulpo and the salads (they offered to box up the preschoolers salad since she was still sleeping). Kid enjoyed the bread. Bit of a wait for mains but nothing out of the ordinary. All the dishes we ordered were delicious. Boscaiola was a hit with the kiddo since she loves pasta and sauce and mushrooms and cheese. Husband thought his main was really good. I was so full after eating all of my ravioli. Really impressed with the quality of food and the level of service. A busy place, but as mentioned, we were luckily seated right away. We're thrilled to have finally made it here after our old Italian standby in proctor shutdown and we can't wait to come back! Definitely recommend. Parking: you can find it, not plentiful but not bad either. Kid friendly: sort of! If your kid likes pizza or pasta!

Our server was very helpful and quick to congratulate the newlyweds. We were able to split our check which was great for everyone. They offer a great 3 course meal regardless of what you order. This includes a soup or salad, your entree and ice cream scoop. They allowed us to bring in a cake that they stored in the cooler until we were ready. He quickly cleared the table and brought small plates for us to use. The group ordered a variety of entrees and the soup was minestrone. They had a separate area for large group and that provided an excellent environment for our group. The music was loud enough to hear with being too loud. It was a great experience for our family!

The atmosphere is warm and lively, the location is perfect, and the entire staff made the experience feel elevated without being pretentious. We had a 5:15 dinner reservation and the restaurant was already packed, which honestly says a lot. The staff was incredibly kind and knowledgeable about both the wine list and menu, and every recommendation felt thoughtfully curated. The food was phenomenal. We have the chef special which was a chicken skin dish and the short rib pasta with the added burrata; flavorful, well-balanced, and beautifully presented. You can tell a lot of care goes into every dish. Definitely one of those places that feels just as good for a casual night out as it does for celebrating something special. Already looking forward to coming back.

This spot is off A street and is located within the big grey building that is the post office. You'll enter where there's stairs on both sides of a grey wall/stone structure. And once you're in, take a right and and the restaurant will be straight ahead. And of course parking, downtown is mostly street parking. And you have to pay during certain hours, so look at the signs to enure you don't get a ticket because the police are pretty well known to not give any grace. Made a reservation online to celebrate a birthday. (And just FYI with the small print, if you cancel less than a day before or a no show, you are subject to a $20 fee PER person). Alright, so this spot has no air conditioning even though its pretty small in there, so I'd recommend sitting outside. Or else, the inside can become a sauna especially in the summer. Had initially requested to sit inside, totally forgetting about the no A/C and my friend who has never been here requested to sit outside. But the server became short with us and was less than pleasant but had intially agreed to take us outside. So it was a confusing situation. And I was embarrassed to bring my friend here because they were talked at and not to and was suggested to sit at a dirty table at that. Food was mid and wasn't as good as it used to be. There wasn't much flavor in either dish.

I ordered their classic old fashioned cocktail and it was served right away. The drink was a perfect balance of sweetness, possibly the best old fashioned I've ever had. With help from the bartender I decided on the surf and turf for my meal. I was told that the steak would take a while because the kitchen was a little backed up. Not a problem. I did wait for a while but it was well worth it. The steak was absolutely beautiful. There was a nice crust under a buttery chive sauce. The lobster tail on top was perfectly cooked and not rubbery at all. It was served with lobster dumplings that were delightful. It was possibly the best steak I've had in Tacoma recently. I'll have to come back to try other delicious looking things on the menu. I ended up talking to a person who sat next to me at the bar for a while and we shared the berry crumble for dessert. It was hot, classic and fresh, served with ice cream. I don't remember exactly what the cost of everything was but it was all totally worth it. The food, the service and the company were all amazing. I loved watching the bartenders make drinks and being able to see the chefs cook is also fun. Their new building is much bigger than the last and it's beautiful. Will definitely be returning to try the lamb rigatoni!
