Great neighborhood place for pasta! Don't let the strip mall-y appearance fool you, it is lovely inside and I have always had great service.

This restaurant is an hidden jewel in Hunt Club. It's very cosy and clean. The servers are ok! I had a good dish of linguine.
Good Italian wine list.

I stopped in here for lunch today, as sort of a combined birthday and exams are finally over thing. I hadn't been since September, and it made me wonder why. The atmosphere is very nice, the service is excellent and the food is excellent. On a thursday afternoon they were booked almost completly, I got a table only by virtue of the fact that I came early and alone. Others were turned away.

I had the soup of the day and one of the pasta dishes on special, just tea to drink. Came to about 16 dollars, which I found nice for the quality. It was an excellent meal.

I had one of the specials, not on the regular menu. A linguini with bacon, broccoli and cheddar cheese rosé sauce. Everything was cooked perfectly and the taste was very good. The portion looked a little small in the large bowl it came in, but I was much too full for dessert afterward, so that was certainly not an issue.

Great app size. Golden Ravioli I think they call it. Quite memorable. Not overly thick and not overly filling to ruin your main course.
