The staff are so kind and accommodated us despite no reservation. We were fortunate enough to eat on the patio and it was lovely. The food was delicious my kid said it was her favorite pasta. We will be back! Thank you to Juliette for squeezing us in and for the incredible service!

I have been twice. The first time I had the special - salmon with a caper sauce. The salmon was perfectly cooked, but the sauce over powered the fish. It made me think the chef is not thinking about balancing flavors. Second time the salmon and caper sauce was a special again - hmm! I had gnocchi with Bolognese sauce this time. The beef the Bolognese tasted old, ropey and over cooked. I will never go back here. Too bad I moved to Novato six months ago.

Good Italian food. The atmosphere is a little Italian cheeky, could use a refresh. It's not fine dinning but feel like a special place for the community. There were a lat of family and friends gatherings all around us. It felt nice 😌! Good wine, drinks, and yes, they have beer. Save room for dessert!

Very disappointing experience. The waitress didn’t write our order down, and it showed. We asked for an appetizer without cheese, but it arrived with cheese. I ordered spaghetti alle vongole and was served spaghetti carbonara instead. The only good dish was the penne al pomodoro. The gnocchi tasted more like flour than potatoes, and the pasta was either drowning in tomato sauce or watery. As three Italians, we expected much better. Unfortunately, we won’t be coming back.
