    It has kept residents coming back for 20 years with a menu of classics such as chicken Vesuvio and housemade lasagna served in a space that looks like a transported cocktail lounge from the ’50s. Read more

    Pretty sure you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Try the calamari calabrese grilled, mission fig salad, eggplant parm, and martini night on Tuesday.

    Martinis, pasta, bruschetta is the bomb. However, a previous tip mentions $6 martinis on Tuesdays but that is no longer the case unfortunately.

    Martinis and other drinks are great. Fried squid is large and in charge. Would definitely recommend. Great date spot.
