This is a nice Italian restaurant that focuses on small plate dining. The food was decent and the prices were reasonable for the portions. The servings weren't as small as Spanish tapas but not as large as entree portions. I dined with 2 friends and we split 5 dishes and we were full. There are definitely some dishes that are larger portions and would be enough for an entree for one. We had this gelato ice cream sandwich dessert that was so cute and innovative! The one thing about this place, though, is that it was LOUD! The three of us had to basically yell across the table throughout the whole conversation. I wouldn't recommend it as a first date place.
