"Excellent as always. One of my favorite italian restaurants in the Aventura/Hallendale area.
The key is consistency and I know my food will always come out of the kitchen exactly as expected.

"I took 6 business associates to dinner. 3 of them said this was the best meal they ever had! The waiter Nevin was outstanding. He knew his stuff and treated us like royalty. Family style dishes, outstanding veal marsala, and surprising burnt brussel sprouts made this a great dinner. Definitely a place to return to many times."
