The food was delicious. Excellent flavor. We ordered four different dishes and they were all amazing. The service and attention were incredible. They even had live music on certain days. Highly recommended!
The two people serving us were very friendly. The place was clean and welcoming. We ordered three pasta dishes. Two were fettuccine; they overcooked the Parmesan cheese, and it became hard (too bad they didn't have pesto). Another dish was spaghetti with meat and eggplant, which was expensive and the worst. The eggplant was mushy from undercooking, and the skin was very hard. The meat, diced sirloin, didn't seem good from the start; it was too tough for my taste and raw in the center. They cooked it more, but it seemed like they fried it, as it ended up unappetizing and drier than before. They also reheated the spaghetti. The pasta tasted okay, and the tomato sauce was very tasty and natural, but overall it was a bad experience considering the price and the quality.
You have to double-check the opening hours because it says they close at 7 pm, but when you arrive they tell you they close earlier, at 5 pm on Sundays. The meat was okay, not amazing, but cooked to a good degree. The mashed potatoes tasted like chicken broth and weren't good; I recommend choosing a different side dish.
