“Excellent pizza in the middle of Lincoln Park. Salad was simple and well made with savory dressing. Sports on big screens but not obtrusive -- normal conversation voice levels. Service was attentive without instrusion.”

“Lovely spot, delicious pizza (Quattro formaggi and piccante), and very sweet staff. This is a hidden gem!!”

“We were not planning to eat there but were passing by and this place looked very appealing. We walked in and fell in love with it. We enjoyed some really great red wine, speck arugula and prosciutto arugula pizza. What a treat on this beautiful and sunny Sunday afternoon!!! One of the best, if not the best pizza we ever had. Everything just fell perfectly in place. The taste, crunchiness, meat flavor, cheese and arugula. We were told that all the ingredients are imported from Italy. Unbelieveable place to dine in and out!!!”

Service was top-notch, just the right amount and timing of check-ins. The bartender came over to check on drink refills too..overall a”
