Reviews
Dinner here was excellent! We ordered the Pappardelle with wild boar sauce and the grilled chicken. For dessert we ordered panna cotta. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Food came out quickly. I highly suggest booking in advance, the tables fill up fast and a lot of people made reservations.
