Experience Through Their Eyes

I had just come back to Albany recently and stopped here for dinner. Was not disappointed as their pizza is still THE BEST! Keep up the EXCELLENT work!

Went with my family and had a great night! Great selection of Italian food. Not that big of a menu but what the menu lacks in quantity, it makes up for quality! Service we received was impressive. Waiter was friendly and personable. We went here because one of their former staff members suggested it to us and we were not disappointed. Okay, I'm a bit disappointed that they said they haven't been serving pizza since the plannedemic but that's minor. They had impressive Italian wine selection and server knows good recommendations. If you're going to get salad, try their in-house blue cheese dressing. Veal piccata was really tender and the Alfredo pasta was rich and creamy but not over-the-top. Ps. We also enjoyed the murals inside the restaurant.

If you want TRUE pizza, like you get in the best pizza shops in New York , this is the place. Fold in-half thin crust with great flavor and bite. Since they are only open 3 evenings a week: you are not going to have a server, so get over it. If you are worried about your feelings, this is not your place. However, if you want the real deal authentic crispy pizza, this IS the place.

I've traveled most of the states and a fair amount of Europe, including Italy, and I have to say this restaurant has outstanding food. Service may SEEM slow but that's part of the ambiance. The timing allows time for conversation and laughter, if you want food being shoveled at you one course after the other buy a conveyor belt and go to a fast food joint. I saw two reviews in particular that made me laugh and caused an irresistible urge to clown on them. For example, one had the nerve to say small portion sizes. First of all you're a human and not a horse. Their portions are plentiful there buddy. And another called her salad "uninspired." Really? Lmao, calm down there Chef Karen Ramsay. Just reading your review made my drink taste like truffle oil. Friendly, casual, intimate location with well crafted food made from quality ingredients. I was impressed and will definitely be back.
