"Wonderful wait staff here. Salads are the best! The marinara with my pasta was a little thick & pasty for my liking, but otherwise the food was good, but not spectacular."

"If you like good Italian food with impeccable service, this is the place. Small, not ostentatious, the focus is on the food. Definitely try the eggplant parmigiana. Meet-filled ravioli's are great. Saw some very nice pizzas go by as well. Generous portions and good value for the money."

"We have been to Vercelli many, many times, it's our local go-to spot. This time we went because the special was Cannelloni. Perfectly done and very, very good. Start with a nice Caesar, which we always split into two smaller salads. No corkage is always a bonus."
