Service is outstanding; always the right time between courses and staff takes the time to explain the menu to you. The menu is unique and always delicious. Quantities are relatively small, but that allows for sampling a variety of dishes.

Really nice dinner, the staff were excellent and they served us quickly. My only suggestion would be an improved dessert menu, as the majority of items currently involved some liquor, coffee or alcohol component.

This is a great Italian restaurant. The waiter was very friendly and the food was great. We booked for 6:30 on a Tuesday and there was probably about 15 other people there, which meant it was quiet and service was quick.

Our whole family enjoyed ourselves for my daughter’s 20th birthday dinner - she wanted Italian, and when I told her that it was a set menu because the ingredients were purchased that morning and meals were prepped accordingly she was so excited. It was worth every penny- delicious and definitely fulfilling. The staff brought out a candle with cannellonis - thank you Zia RINA’S for a beautiful night
