If you call this a pie, we'll let it slide.

If you call it cake... we're gonna have a conversation.

Fresh-baked crostata with seasonal fruit and a buttery crust that's worth making a mess over.

☀️ Summer doesn’t need another burger.

We’ve got fresh pasta, killer sandwiches, salads that actually have some personality, pizza, seafood, and whatever else the kitchen decided was worth putting on the specials board this week.

No foam. No tiny portions. Just really good food made from really good ingredients.

Watch the reel. Pick your excuse to stop by.

🍝 Specials change. That’s kind of the point.

Not every pasta dish needs twelve ingredients and a backstory.

House-made noodles. Fresh clams. White wine. Garlic. Hot chili. Preserved lemon. Parsley.

A little briny. A little spicy. A little messy. Exactly how linguini and clams should be.

No truffle oil. No foam. No unnecessary life lessons. Just a really good bowl of pasta. 🤌
