They started us off with a complimentary Prosecco and a little portion of bean soup. So welcoming! My partner ordered the Ravioli with fresh shaved truffles and I tried their potato gnocchi with fabulous cherry tomatoes. It may be my favorite meal in four weeks of traveling around Italy. Claudio, the chef came by and we talked about the restaurant business and he even recommended a Mexican restaurant in Palm Desert which we will try. Finished with a special concoction of cocoa powder milk and two other ingredients that made for a nice digestivo. You can sit outside if you prefer

My favorite dish was the tonnaroli pasta with sausage, red onion cooked so long it liquefied, and a sagrantino wine reduction. The flavors were intense, original and memorable. I have lived in Italy and am 100% Italian so my palate is demanding - and it was one of the best plates of pasta I've ever eaten. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming and staff was attentive and professional.

Music was playing from outdoor speakers and the selections were great, mostly rock n roll from all decades. They are really trying to evoke a relaxed atmosphere. Our server was friendly and spoke English. We ordered a negroni cocktail and a "Negroski" an amusing variant which uses vodka instead of gin. She brought us plates of charcuterie, cheese, stuffed hot peppers, bruschetta and pita. All was very tasty. So we decided to order another beverage, and surprise surprise we received ANOTHER batch of food. Is it impossible to get drunk in Italy? Lol. The only reason we didn't get a third drink is because we were concerned we would get more food, ha ha. Did we finish the food? Yes. Did we go to dinner later? Yes. This place was wonderful and a very pleasant surprise to be located inside a tourist site.

The decor is elegant, service an A+.... the food is heaven! We had the pork filet with potatoes... it was like butter and almost melted in your mouth. Very tasty. I had the gnocchi with a Sagratino red wine sauce that was delicious. I liked the small size gnocchi, a nice meal portion and balance of sauce. We had wine by the glass and frizzante water. They brought an appetizer for us to try before our meal that was a mix of creamy ricotta cheese, a stripe of sauce and crunchy topping that made the perfect blend. The entire visit was so enjoyable we will be coming back again and again Seating indoors or outside on the patio The owner came by our table and told us his wife is the chef.

The last time I visted they had finished their outdoor patio dining area, which is a must for eating dinner and watching the sunset. When we had called ahead to make a reservation, we mentioned that I have celiacs and were curious about what the gluten free options were and by the time we arrived for dinner, the owner's wife had made homemade gluten free pasta special for me! Completely blown away. As usual, the food was incredible, as were the truffles. Musts from Re Tartu are fondue with truffles and the scrambled eggs with truffles... I crave both dishes all the way from Seattle.
