One of the BEST Italian restaurants in Richmond. I lived in Italy for two years. I thought I was back at the Piazza Navona at the Tre Scalini. The Zacchetti with the pear and porcine mushroom filling spinach and a divine cream sauce. Absolute heaven in the mouth.

This Italian restaurant offers an unforgettable dining experience. The warm hospitality and elegant ambiance of authentic Italian cuisine instantly blew me and my family away. The staff’s impeccable service and genuine smiles make you feel like family. We started off with the calamari and it tasted amazing. It was perfectly fried and accompanied a great sauce. I personally had the salmon for the main entree and all I can say is that I made sure to finish my plate. It was so good! My family and I ended off the night with their famous tiramisu. Ultimately, a wonderful evening filled with great tasting foods and flawless service. 100% recommend!

Nice place, friendly staff, prices are a little bit high but still ok. Nice set up and location. Food was ok (not the greatest but ok. We had to wait just a little bit longer than usual for our food. But, we would/could be back!

Heard so much hype about this place that I thought it’d be a nice spot to take my parents for their 55th anniversary. I noted the anniversary on the reservation. Upon check in, I told the hostess. I thought maybe we could do something celebratory but the staff did nothing to mark it which was disappointing. Food was disappointing as well, but I heard the pizza is what I should have chosen. Attractive environment but very loud. Waitress did well.

I have to say, this was the worst meal I’ve had in a long time. Our server was very strange. I asked for one glass of wine since I did not want to share a bottle with the group, but she ignored me and poured that bottle in my glass. She also was very aloof, almost like she was drunk. The food runner was extremely rude. He slammed the food down on the table as he dropped it and was noticeably annoyed when our group was figuring out who had what. For those prices, I would expect them to know who ordered what at a 10 person table. Also, the food was HORRENDOUS. The calamari was extremely chewy and had no seasoning. I honestly have had better calamari from the freezer section at Lidl. I’m pretty sure they microwaved it, it wasn’t even crunchy. For my food, it was extremely under seasoned. Actually, i don’t think there was any seasoning. I drowned it in Parmesan just to have flavor. In addition to having no flavor, the chicken was SO DRY. My dish had cold mozzarella balls plopped on top, like it was right out of the fridge. This meal would cost $5 and but at this “elevated dining restaurant” was $25!!! The only thing that is elevated there are the prices. I will not even eat the leftovers, it was THAT horrible. It takes a lot for me to hate a dining experience so much that I need to write a review about it. I don’t know if the chef was having an “off” day, but I’m sad my money went to this “fine dining” nightmare.

Better than your usual Italian restaurant near the University of Richmond. Outdoor seating is nice, though inside can be noisy. A well-stocked wine cellar with knowledgeable staff.

It’s loud and it’s vibrant. Great servers with excellent knowledge. A very high quality wine list the barolos are a fair match. Wood fired pizza, Italian wine what else are you looking for?
