Good, simple dinner. We ended up here after the place we were looking for was closed. We had the gnocchi and the spaghetti with chilli and garlic. Service was friendly and quick. Food was decent but not outstanding. Wasn't over priced (as some places can be and some other reviews said). It's very similar to other restaurants in the area with a higher rating.

We loved this restaurant nice and cozy and the food is good. We visited twice. First time we had fish soup- it was ok. We also had spaghetti pomodoro was great and salad was great. Second visit we tried the spaghetti with garlic and oil and that was fantastic. What we liked was the options of food/ pasta and salads without ham or pork in it. We liked that option very much and the food tasted good. Service is fast and friendly. I do recommend this place.
