“ A recommendation by Troy from Best Western, I had to try out this Italian restaurant. The staff were lovely and accomodating to my perhaps too-foreign self and tended to anything I needed. I had the gnocchi with beef, and it was absolutely one of the best gnocchis I’ve ever had, though I seldom have gnocchi, it was memorable enough for me to want to try it again!! ”
“ Chose this restaurant on a whim as we looked for parking on a cold, snowy day in Buffalo. Man oh man did we get lucky as this place had GREAT Italian food. On arrival, the host, a.k.a The owner, put 2 tables together to accommodate our party of 6. We sat and ordered garlic bread and they came with a roasted garlic and red pepper and olive butter. Really good. We also ordered a few drinks, The Sicilian Old Fashioned and a Chianti. Finally we ordered dinner (See pics) and everything was EXCEPTIONAL! My son had the Steak Giacobbi which was so darn flavorful that I was a little jealous I didn't order it. Overall great food, great service and cool atmosphere. This is a HIGHLY recommended restaurant when you are in Buffalo. ”

“ This place was such a delight. We were greeted by Nicole and our Server was Jessie, they were both awesome. Great customer service and a tonne of amazing recommendations. We had the prosciutto pizza, casino clams (a must), Pasta rapini, Brooklyn style spicy rigatoni, linguine Alfredo and a peanut butter pie to finish. I've ate at Italian restaurants all around the world and this mom and pop was up there with some of the best food I've had. Bravissimo ”
“ Food was excellent, the drinks were great a little om the underpowered side but I like it that way! The pasta and appetizers were great, and the the portions are fair! I will definitely come again. *Note the bread is not complimentary, think staff accidently implied it was, had to clarify. ”
“ Jacob our waitress was very nice and attentive! I had Short Rib Meatballs & Lasagna and they were both good would highly reccomend! ”
“ Might just be my new favorite Italian restaurant in Buffalo. 10/10 everything we had. I had the chicken piccata, spaghetti, house bread, and apple cobbler thing for dessert. I'm eating my leftovers right now and they are so freaking good I had to hop on and review this place. ”
