“ Authentic Italian food in a locale environment setting. Handwritten menu no price but truly enchanting. We could have been over charged but in European standards great value for money. ”
“ We walked up on a Tuesday night with a party of ten(6 adults,4 kids from 5-12). We got a table no problem. The only thing better than the service was the food. I can’t believe they only recently started serving pizza as theirs is amazing. Possibly the best I’ve had in Italy. Not the best pics but we had a great last night in Calabria thanks to finding this gem of a restaurant. If you’re anywhere near you must try. All ingredients are sourced from as nearby as possible. ”
