A fine Italian restaurant with good food in an older style atmosphere, with the main seating area setup to look like outdoor italy, with murals of italy on the walls and wrought-iron branching lighting giving a candle-light ambience overhead. Service is typically exceptional, and atmoshpere is a little coarse but charming. There is a main dining area with a large firepit in the middle. Patrons walk by the chefs efficiently preparing dishes. Grab a drink at the full bar. The free bread here is to die for, and the pizza is recommended.
