The server was a little hard to find in the beginning which was frustrating for such a big group, but it was probably our fault for having some of the guests of honor arrive a bit on the late side.The desserts were good, not great, but the entrées and appetizers were very good. We were also the last people to leave the restaurant and the staff never made us feel uncomfortable even though all people want to go home ASAP, so thank you for your patience with us.

I know ill probably get some grief about giving a gem in Little Italy three stars, but we gotta be honest here. Its just okay. The service was mediocre at best, our server didn't seem too interested in our experience. The food was okay, the tomato basil was watery and the noodles were okay. Whole experience 2.5/5 - if you are in Little Italy, it's worth checking out - the restaurant is super cool and has a lot of great history, just be patient haha.

We were glad to have found this restaurant. Rick wanted to eat in "Little Italy" and this is where it was located.The atmosphere was very nice. The music wasn't loud and you could hear each other when having a conversation.We understood they were short staffed and they did a great job!We had fettuccine Alfredo, linguine with their special meat sauce and meatballs (extra delicious), crab cakes, and veal cutlet. All meals were super delicious.The experience was better than expected. We recommend heading here to check it out. ?

Came with a large group of friends, and everyone left satisfied and happy. Outdoor seating had a great atmosphere and the staff were very friendly. The pasta was delicious with thick, flavorful sauce. Specifically, the eggplant parmesan amazing - thick slices, cooked soft and covered with generous sauce. I can see how it's their specialty. I really liked how the gnocchi sauce was a slightly different take on the usual original marinara, more smooth and subtle. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant and will certainly dine here again.

Had an amazing dinner experience here. Fresh pasta and ravioli. The calamari was amazing as well. We will definitely be visiting again.

Was in Cleveland overnight, and decided to go to Little Italy. Went about 2pm on a Saturday, and the staff was rude and short like we were bothering them. No one even cracked a smile. Asked if we had a reservation, which we didn’t but there were two other couples upstairs and plenty of seating. Explained we had never been here before, and the waitress looked at us like we were aliens. I guess I would have expected her to say what was most popular, or what her favorite item was, but she just stared at us. The food was good, but I was very put off by the staff.

It was delicious! ? great cozy italian place to get the best pastas in Little Italy.

Great atmosphere and Food!!!

Been there at least a dozen times over the years. Food is always outstanding. Fine dining at a decent price. Good service delivered by servers who are knowknowledgeable and friendly. In the warmer months they serve on their beautiful patio.

Great food, excellent service a great place to go
