The happy hour is a bargain beers 4$, cocktails for 6$, select wines for 6$. Loved the carpaccio, Caesar salad and pennoni alla vodka. Very good service.
The Capellini al Pomodoro ordered gluten free and spicy is one of the best pasta dishes I've had outside Italy!

Lily Della MaggioraDecember 29, 2016The Arnold Palmers are fantastic! They let us change to smaller portion sizes as well.
Kaymann WooJanuary 6, 2018The food here is a lot better than the Santa Clara location. Sauces tasted a lot better
The breakfast here is worth it!!!! The applewood smoked bacon is out of this world.
The Pollo Peperoncino is very good. It has a nice spicy kick. Bartender's are excellent, chat them up.
Stefanie (Trimble) FluinSeptember 16, 2016Wasn't impressed with their food based on the pricing. Had the alla vodka pasta - seemed a bit too sweet and too salty at the same time. Tiramisu was so so. Service was excellent. Super fancy.
Nia OlmedaMay 5, 2013Service is above and beyond every time I cater or host a meal here... Thx Cole!
Richard DavisMarch 19, 2011Join the Passaporto program, it's super cool, every month they offer a different menu from a different region in Italy.
Megan ElizabethApril 27, 2018First of all, this place is way over priced. Second, when the brought my omelette out there was black grease on the plate (the kind you’d grease a door hinge or car engine with). Horrific.
Andrea LeeSeptember 11, 2011Great, regional Italian pasta dishes that change every few weeks. Not cheap, but worth it.
Eggs Benedict, French Toast with Marzipan and the Smoked Salmon Egg Omelette with Capers are highly recommended.- Uber SVNovember 20, 2013Be sure to show your Uber receipt to receive a free Tiramisu with a purchase during #SVLOVESuberX Week (Nov 25-Dec 1)
J JohnSeptember 24, 2022Glorified Olive Garden. The bread is good so is the Caesar Salad. Pasta-wise … save your money
Darryl CobbDecember 4, 2011Loved them in Seattle. They have a restaurant in the Pacific Place mall downtown.
Try the conchigli al polo for an amazing pasta dish, or the margharita pizza!
Michael mindelJanuary 13, 2011$5 Happy Hour! Full sized pizza, carpaccio, calamari and artisan cocktails... All 5 bucks at happy hour!
Kate WalkerJune 29, 2010Great place for a breakfast meeting. Very quiet and the service isn't all about getting you out the door.
Steffanie RushinJune 26, 2010So one of your patrons orders something you don't have do you still serve something else? They do here... so upset

"Eggplant Parmigiana is fantastic. Firm eggplant, sauce with a full rich flavor, cheesy but not overloaded. Great stuff!"

"Chopped salad is a must with extra blue cheese and chicken!!!"

"Highly recommend the Baked Chicken dinner. It's a bit of a sampler platter. You get a great tasting piece of chicken and a side of pasta with both Mizithra and marinara toppings."
