What a wonderful experience was had!! From the moment we walked in to ask of the wait time, to the time we walked out the door, the staff, food, and experience was hands down incredible.
I checked to see what the wait time was, was able to get Bar seating, and had the staff confirm if parking was good. They went above and beyond anything I have experienced in a restaurant setting. Even walking back in from outside, I was treated so warmly.
Now the food was incredible! The food was prepared quickly and tastefully. Calamari was crispy enough and the sauces complimented the flavor tremendously.
Pizza - amazing for something we had never tried before - Bianca with artichoke, spinach, and a pesto sauce drizzled on.
Even for the bar seating, the ambiance was something that made you feel at home but also in a lavish restaurant.
Thank you to all the staff for a wonderful experience - I will be recommending this place to anyone that is traveling to Corktown/Detroit area.

Had dinner here before a concert and it was very good. Highly recommend the bread with butter, it's amazing! The goat cheese and garlic were super tasty. Pizzas were solid but not totally outstanding. Service was very good. Only negative is that I thought the wine pours were a little small. But overall a great restaurant. I would definitely return.

Everything 10/10 or probably 100/100. The service food and servers everyone makes this place a great Italian hot spot. I was travelling here in Michigan for 2 days. Just randomly got to know about this place on google.
Must to be ordered bread service. Fresh baked bread with housemaid butter. The best bread had in my life it was so soft and delicious.
Our server Anna was so knowledgeable on her wine recommendations and helped us for food selection. She is friendly and so polite. Truly passionate about what she is doing.
Highly recommended for ur pasta and pizza cravings.

We booked here for a birthday get together, party of 12. Ended up being in the area early so the restaurant accommodated us and we were seated at 3:45. We were unable to order any appetizers while we waited for 2 others to arrive. We ended up ordering bread for the table- this was the only thing we could get until everyone was there. Dinner was amazing. Everyone loved their apps, pastas and cocktails. We received the bill for the table under 1 cheque. We asked for individual cheques, as it was a girls night out not couples. Server mentioned they don’t split bills individually for a party of 12. Wish we were aware of this ahead of time. Half of us are from Canada so it got confusing with trying to divide up the bills etc rather than us all paying separate. As we are dividing up the bills the sever comes over and mentions they need the table for a reservation at 6:30. We mention we are trying to divide up the bills because they won’t. The server replied “that’s exactly why we don’t do it it’s a lot of work”. Our original reservation was at 4:30, so if we arrived then.. we’re seated and ordered for 5 I feel like it would have been tight for time.
Anyways, we were a bit frustrated with the end of our night. But overall great restaurant. I don’t think I would go back for a large gathering but date night would work!

Went with a party of 16. We basically ordered one of everything on the menu and passed it around family style.
EVERYTHING, I REPEAT EVVVVVVVERYTHING was prepared perfectly. It was all so good. From the roasted potatoes to the Irish fried egg to the calamari, it was delicious.
Our waitress was doing it all, she handled our group like a pro.
Check this place out yall, it's nice ! ! !
