Very cute Italian Restaurant, make you feel you are actually dinning in Italy. The food was tasty and the wine was very tasty. We usually are not big fun of the bread, but the bread here was also chewy and tasty. We finished it before the food was served, lol They also have a very nice outdoor sitting area, the view will be generous in summer. The servers here were very friendly, he gave us great recommendations on both food and wines. Highly recommended and definitely will visit again.

It’s been a long time since we’ve eaten here and really I don’t know why it’s been so long. The food and service is absolutely incredible! It’s a small restaurant that has added outdoor seating to probably double its seating capacity. We chose to sit outdoors and while it wasn’t windy or raining, it was surprisingly warm under the heater. If you’re celebrating or looking for an intimate and romantic dinner, this is your spot. We definitely won’t wait as long to be back!

Listen. I did not have a reservation. I had to wait 30 mins. Then I had to wait 30 mins more. When I tell you that this was the best dining and country Italian experience of my life regardless of that is an understatement. The extra 30 min wait was beyond anyone's control and the owner personally apologized. The waitstaff were excellent. The menu was just enough. The sunset view was superb. The food and drinks were top notch. Intimate and personalized. This solo diner is very pleased. Large and small parties accommodated. 10/10 must when in West Seattle.

We are from Lake Oswego Oregon, and Palm Springs California and I wish we had this restaurant in our neighborhoods. Everything about this restaurant is sublime. Be careful with the bread, I could make a meal out of it with a glass of wine. Max our server was has attentive as he was last year. He took great care of us. What is most surprising is the fabulous food at such a reasonable price. Haven't experienced that in very many restaurants lately. Keep up the excellent work! Robert and Dianna
