Start your meal with unforgettable appetizers like the Crispy Pork Belly, slow-braised until melt-in-your-mouth tender and finished with a perfectly crisp exterior. Paired with zesty chimichurri and a drizzle of chili aioli, it’s the perfect balance of flavors. For a savory delight, indulge in our Polpetti & Ricotta, where house-made meatballs of pork, veal, and beef are served in a rich Pomodoro sauce and topped with creamy whipped ricotta and a crunchy crostini.
Our brick oven pizzas are not to be missed! The Hot Honey Pepperoni Pizza combines the rich, tangy flavors of pepperoni and Italian cheeses with a sweet kick from house-made hot honey, while our Exotic Mushroom Pizza is a sophisticated mix of fig preserves, fresh burrata, and toasted pistachios, creating a sweet and savory flavor profile that’s simply irresistible.
Pasta lovers, rejoice! Our pasta dishes are handcrafted to deliver comfort and indulgence in every bite. Try the Fettuccine Bolognese, with its slow-simmered ragu of beef, pork, and veal, layered with deep, hearty flavors that embrace each strand of fresh pasta. Or savor the Gorgonzola Sacchetti, delicate pasta purses filled with creamy gorgonzola, draped in a luxurious pear and brown butter fig sauce—a perfect harmony of sweet and savory.
For seafood lovers, the Linguini Frutti De’Mare is a standout, featuring a succulent medley of clams, calamari, shrimp, and scallops in a spicy white wine butter sauce.
