This Italian restaurant offers a fantastic dining experience. The staff is exceptionally nice and friendly. The food is incredibly delicious, and the desserts are simply phenomenal! Although the place was a bit crammed, it didn't take away from the overall positive experience. The cleanliness of the establishment adds to its appeal. A great spot for delicious Italian cuisine with a welcoming atmosphere.

This review is more like a 4.5/5. This is a popular spot on a Saturday night. The interior is small and well decorated. We started with the calamari which was solid but the breading was a bit loose, the flavor was there though. Our service also brought out focaccia with a pesto/olive oil dip.
I had the farfalline rose and the sauce was perfect. Fantastic dish. The others in my party had the filet mignon salad and the buccatini. I heard no complaints. Our server was attentive and checked on the table a few times to make sure we had everything.

It's got to be one of the loudest restaurants in Orange County... the brick walls and the small tables make it very intimate and if you're into that type of a atmosphere it is great!
I would recommend sitting at the bar... at least you can speak side by side and have a little conversation.
But you will want to go here because the food is amazing... everything we tasted was fresh, high-quality, handmade and really delicious. Thinking back on the menu there are at least 12 things that I still have to go back and try. Think more red sauce southern Italian family-style then upscale northern and more refined dining.

Outstanding food & service! Would definitely recommend and we will definitely return. Love the local family atmosphere! You can definitely share dishes family style, if you wish to try a variety of things/portions are abundant.

The egg plant bites were amazing, nice and crispy full of flavor.
I had the short rib fresh pasta, wow was it a big dish. The beef melted in your mouth and the fresh pasta was tasty.
