**Overall Experience:** Unlikely we'll return.
My friend, a veteran and a big fan of Italian cuisine, wanted to try out a new restaurant. When we arrived, we waited several minutes to be acknowledged—yet we were clearly visible to the owner. I thought it was standard practice to wait to be seated, but after some time, the owner called out from behind the bar, telling us we could sit wherever we liked. The place seemed decent enough, though I felt a bit uneasy since there were no other customers at the time. Eventually, two more tables were filled....
Family owned place, authentic Roman food. We visited Rome 2 weeks before we ate there, and while not identical to Roman food, it's very close. Delicious warm bread, and seasoned oil and cannelloni beans to start. We had the artichokes (very good) and supploni (the rice was a bit soft but otherwise tasted very much like the suppli in Rome). We shared a special crab lobster ravioli with shrimp and blush sauce and it was delicious. But the star of the show was the tiramisu. I've only had one other tiramisu this good, and it was made by an Italian born friend. There was a bit of a wait because they were very busy and understaffed.

I recently dined at this restaurant for dinner, and overall it was a fantastic experience. The food was exceptional, deserving a perfect five stars for its quality and flavor. The service was equally impressive, with attentive and friendly staff who ensured we had everything we needed throughout our meal.
However, I found the atmosphere to be average, rating it three stars. While it was comfortable, it didn’t quite match the outstanding quality of the food and service.
In summary, I highly recommend this place for its delicious food and excellent...

Absolutely incredible place. Roman taste, Philly grit, lovely owners. Core de Roma style Artichokes are sublime. Cacio e pepe and gricia pastas might have been very well be served in a Trastevere restaurant where Luigi is from. I can't believe it took me so long to discover this place. Will come back regularly.

Great experience. Little hole in the wall Italian BYOB. Best bruschetta potentially ever. The service was excellent. Little slow with the bill, but they had a waiter out sick. The infinity mirrors in the bathroom were an extra fun bonus! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
My favorite place to eat at! Everything is homemade and delicious and you can tell that the owners care about what they put out. I will come here over and over again. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Good local place with good quality food. My only suggestion is look for a better source of bread. My wife’s entree was very good .
