They brought me another bottle of full Savignon Bianco, and I asked in Italian how much it would cost. They told me it would be the same as the other.

They are the masters of the upcharge and will take advantage of anyone, probably not specific to being of Italian descent or...

Read more1st visit as couple (seated inside): Pizza lacked marinara but hit the spot. The crust is already thin & it was confusing they would charge 2euro more to make thinner?! Pizza is enough for two people easily. Use oil or vinegar for Crist...it will be quite crispy. 2nd visit w/group of 5 seated outside under raised tent: not well vented to stick to other outdoor seating for.intersection cross breeze. Carbonara was good but had better dishes on our visits. Waiter bit rude when friend asked for to go tiramisu. You pay inside at conclusion when ready to depart. Ok for a decent food but don't expect much as far as the...
