So, I waited to do my review on this place until after we had been here a couple times, and boy does this place not disappoint!!! This is a cute little Italian place in Sellwood that features linen tablecloths, great lighting and a full service bar. As for the food, wow!!! We have tried almost everything on the menu at this point, so I will try to give a quick rundown!

Great dinner of rustic Italian. From lamb chops that were perfectly cooked, hanger steak, rigatoni with Italian sausage, to corn agnolotti with butter poached lobster! It was all wonderful! Another grand slam for a locally owned restaurant!

Authentic Italian cuisine with absolutely great customer service! Came here for a family members birthday; we brought a cake and they went the extra effort to cut and serve it for the entire party! Great place to just have a few appetizers and drinks as well.

From the food to the atmosphere to the wait staff, this was one of the best restaurants I’ve been to in a long time. You can sit back and enjoy your meal because they do not rush you. I had the agnolotti with lobster. Our table shared 3 appetizers including the octopus which was fantastic. There was nothing put on the table that wasn’t delicious.

I thought it was pricy in the menu, but couldn’t complain when I had the meal. I would definitely try other menus in the next time.

The food did not disappoint. We started off with the octopus and it was very flavorful. The lobster agnolotti got better with each bite and the garganelli alla norcia was amazing and the mushrooms were great. Service was good. A server noticed our table was wobbly and quickly tried to fix it and filled our water when it was empty.
