Wonderful atmosphere and service. However, a single average-sized serving of lasagna, 1.5 glasses of wine and a shared (small but delicious) turamisu was $150 (tip included) for two people. No salad, no veg, just a single portion of lasagna in a bowl and some bread. Waaayyyyy overpriced. This is our second visit, and although we love the Tuscany-esk atmosphere and service goodness, it is just crazy expensive. Too many other good choices in Falmouth and the upper Cape with great food and expensively reasonable prices..
My daughters and I enjoyed a wonderful meal here on December 30, 2023. I did my study abroad in Firenze in 1985 and my oldest daughter had an internship in Roma in 2023. We found the food here to be as tasty and authentic as any Italian restaurant in the USA. Highly recommend!
Wonderful place and atmosphere. They make their own pasta in-house! Yay. I definitely only love to eat homemade fresh pasta, if feels better in my system and this place was delish. Their pesto was yummy as well. Oh and the olives they have are my favorite olives (just a funny coincidence). The only thing was that I thought the bread and olive oil was on the cheap side. Not the best in comparison to everything else. Sadly.
The Rosso di Toscana wine 🍷 was absolutely lovely! Get a glass!
Sitting outside was very nice but a little warm. Wish they had some oscillating fans above to help move sit around in the summer.
Our server was wonderful as well.
Very lovely. Can’t wait to go again next summer.

Went there tonight for an anniversary dinner and OMG it was amazing! All my husband kept saying was "this is amazing food" and "you made the right call".
Started with a special appetizer (Tortino di patate) that layered potatoes with pancetta and then topped it with lemony ricotta and beets. It was beyond words.
Then we both got the tagliatelle. My husband got it with the Bolognese sauce and I got it with the funghi sauce. Both were so amazing I would just burst into tears if we went back and I had to pick one.
Dessert was also a special for me. It was a chocolate wafer with strawberry pane Cotta and more strawberries. It was heavenly.
All in all, it was clean plate club for both of us for all three courses. I can't stress this enough that this place is amazing and should NOT be missed.

Such a beautiful atmosphere. Cozy, rustic but really well-designed. Small items, sauces for sale! Bar is really fun and special for drinks & apps or full menu.
Would love to come back and try and entree!

Lovely ambiance, our waiter Jordan was great. Jordan was knowledgeable about the menu and helped us with our choices. We were not disappointed. The five of us shared the Taglier for an appetizer. It was just enough to get us started. We all enjoyed our meal.
Loved our experience here. It’s such a cozy lovely restaurant. Food is incredible, down to the bread they serve with the meal. Love their homemade pasta and especially their carbonara. I had their chicken in asparagus cream and it was so yummy. Also got to try three flavors of gelato since an order comes three scoops! Ordered the nutellina (isn’t on the menu) which is coffee with Nutella and whipped cream and it’s incredible.
Great Italian food from Bologna cuisine, cooked from a real chef from Bologna. I found the food very authentic. I would suggest you try the friggione, simply onion with tomato sauce, unique and delicious. The pollo is really good too. Great selections of wines and very nice staff and super attentive.
