We just went here for the second time on 11/1/14. I had the shrimp fetticini alfredo. It was outstanding. Creamiest Alfredo I've ever had. The bread is hard on the outside and soft on the inside, jusg the way we like it. My husband had the Italian pork chops. i tasted a tiny bit and it was delicious. Get here early. It's VERY small and there is no room to "hang" while you wait for a table. This is in a residential area, on a street corner so parking is wherever you can find. Make sure you take home some of their homemade ravioli. They have a whole freezer case full of goodies. Also the shelves are full of pastas and other Italian delights.

This place is the cutest little BYOB! You have to try the spinach arancinis. They are amazing! Their daily specials are always tasty!

Started with the roasted vegetables. Added a little salt and it was magic.
I had the chicken scaloppini. It was tender and the sauce was excellent. Pasta was perfect.My friend had the Chicken Parma and it was good (but not great).I had the tiramisu which was average (not bad). The BYOB I did not know about but I will next time. The service was good. Not a romantic place (a restaurant in the middle of a store type of setting - very Italian (at least in San Remo)). This is not romantic but more of a family or just very casual friends encounter. Reasonable prices. Lot of customers speaking Italian. It's in a residential area (easy parking) and quaint.

Great atmosphere. Great italian food. BYOB. Friendly neighborhood meeting place. We started with the sausage and peppers appetizer which was excellent along with the bread and olive oil. The green and red peppers were wonderful as well as the sauteed sausage in oil and garlic. We had both the pasta and vodka sauce and a special with square pasta with vegetables in a oil coating. Very enjoyable with families taking hours to enjoy their meal. Wonderful place to go an enjoy! Can't wait to return for another meal.
