    My partner and I decided to do a day trip to MI! We ended up in Buchanan! So happy we did!! This place was such a pleasant find!! Not only were they open on Easter but the owner was so nice and caring! There's plenty of seating options! We opted for the chicken pesto and the Bianca pizza!! Both were amazing!!! I personally loved the pesto but try both! We finished with a double scoop cone of their cookie's & crème and moose tracks!

    I know people really like this place, but I did not love it. The shop is very cute. The staff is friendly. I tried carrot cake, tiramisu, cannoli, and pistachio gelato. The carrot cake was the best of what I tried. The flavor of the gelato was ok. The texture was not as smooth as the gelato I like. I did not like the tiramisu or the cannoli. Cannoli should always be fresh-filled, for one. I also did not love the flavor of the cream. The tiramisu was bland and the cream was more of a whip. I did not finish it. And it is served frozen so you have to wait for it to thaw.

    Stopped tonight to try something different for our take home dinner and not disappointed. Their FB post on their Friday night special mushroom ravioli caught my eye. What a great meal it was. Fabulous My wife is from western NY and has had many cannolis and she honestly said these were the best she has ever had. Will definitely be back. My wife wants to meet the person that made these cannolis.

    Absolutely delicious food, excellent service, and a friendly, welcoming family atmosphere. Not pictured is the cannoli or strawberry shake -- beyond yummy! Best spot in Buchanan MI for a sweet treat or a savoury meal. It was our first time and will definitely be coming back. Thanks to everyone who served us today. 10/10 Would recommend for everyone.

    This was our first time coming here, but just for an ice cream date. The staff was friendly and inside was super cute, they decorated with old-timey pictures and statures to really make it feel like an old ice cream shop, there is even a bar to sit at. The ice cream was great, fantastic sundae. We didn't get the gelato but tasted it and it was very good. We will be back to try the food and pasta night! (The sandwiches looked delicious).

    Great food. Old school vintage feel: vintage Hollywood photos on the wall. Scrumptious desserts

    Food was ok but overpriced. Dirty bathrooms could use some attention. Service was quick. Lower your prices and clean your facility.

    Food is authentic Italian, reasonably priced and prepared to order. Best cannoli ever! Pasta nights are the best. Worth a trip.

    The chicken pesto sub is fire! We've had other subs that are awesome, but that is a favorite. And I love the pistachio gelato. Great food.

    I'm so bummed. First time I came here it was the best quality, because the owner was working. The…read morepizza was perfect, and we couldn't wait to come back. The second time we came here, the owner wasn't in and the girl working had a major attitude because we asked for napkins. The pizza was super greasy and the crust wasn't cut so we had to use a knife. Sigh. I guess go in when the owner is there for the best pizza otherwise lower your expectations, a lot! Pictures are same pizza from first visit and second visit. Will try again but would call first to make sure the owner is on premises.

    Mixed feelings for this place. I have celiacs disease so it's a safe and good option. Recently i've…read morebeen running into problems when the younger people are working. They will disable online orders while they're open and say they will be back at whatever time, go back to check and they move it again to a later time and also won't pick up the phone. They answered one time and told me to hang on, and then hung up. I finally got my order. I ordered chicken ranch pizza, no bacon or onions. there were onions. also, i couldn't eat dinner last night and had to waste $30 because the black stuff all on the bottom was so strong and gross!! ... i eat here pretty regularly and this is happening every so often.. very upsetting. please better train your employees. there's a really nice lady with brunette hair who i assume is the owner? i'm not sure. The only time my food is good from here is if she's working.

    Wowww wow wow! I…read morewasnt sure what to expect when my friend suggested this place but I was thoroughly and pleasantly surprised. The "Detroit style" pizza really reminds me more of focaccia bread. It is SO fluffy and delightful. Unpopular opinion here but I typically don't consider pizza to be a "meal." It's something you eat when you don't have it in you to cook, and even if you get it in Chicago it's like...a last ditch effort at feeding yourself. BUT this feels like a meal. Like a treat. Like a schmancy lil indulgence you deserve. My friend is gluten free and I never in a million years would guess this is gluten free. I almost hope they didn't mistakenly put it on regular dough, for my friends sake. But if this is legitimately gluten free, I would gladly get it again even if I wasn't with a gluten intolerant friend. The artichoke pieces are massive, tender and tangy. The sausage is a bit strange, ground sausage instead of little lumps. And the mushrooms really top the "artesenal" feel. There's a cute little market with interesting delicacies and they have an incredibly diverse assortment of non-alcoholic beverages. The clerk did an amazing job of describing many of the options, took a lot of time making sure we knew what we were looking at. Definitely a connoisseur. Fabulous. A little pricey but, again, this is an indulgence. A meal. A quaint opportunity to relax and engulf yourself in fluffy, delectable fare that feels authentic and real. Not just ingredients tossed on a piece of dough for convenience sake. I look for to my next visit here!
