Gift Tips
- Order any of the handmade pastas—ravioli or gnocchi are standout preparations that highlight the house techniques.
- Ask for wine recommendations to pair with pasta or seafood; the modest but well-curated list complements the menu.
- Make a reservation for date nights or weekend evenings—tables are few and the dining room fills up fast.
- If you see MJ or Linea serving, request them for a welcoming, attentive experience.
- Order the focaccia and house bread to start, since they are a strong fit for the restaurant’s simple Italian style.
- Look for seafood dishes like the mussels, calamari, salmon florentine, or shellfish fettuccine if you want to lean into the kitchen’s local seafood focus.
- Save room for dessert and try the flan or homemade vanilla ice cream with biscotti for a nice finish.
