“ I've been here before & it was a pleasant experience, so I brought my mom for lunch. It is cute inside, has a designated take out counter, it's clean & well lit, has bar seating & plenty of wine choices & 8 beers on tap. Our waitress was very pleasant, but a little unattentive, most likely because she was alone & there weren't many customers to keep her attention. The coffee was rich & robust; a cut above your average cup of joe. So much so, that i asked her the brand to which she responded lavaza light roast espresso.. The pizza was decent. The crust was not quite New England style, it was lighter & airier like focaccia. I am a NY style girl, so I wouldn't be able to handle any more than a small, w/ out being breaded out. Both pizzas were tasty & had plenty of toppings, but were a little bland. However, there was cheese, red pepper, s&p available for seasoning to your liking. The beet salad was a little difficult to eat, but It was delicious! The grinder/sub was a 3 out of 5. The roll was excellent, it was toasted perfectly & packed, but not to the point where it decintagrated. The flavor was there, but it was a little mushy. It's hard it get crispy eggplant out, especially in a sandwich. The portions in general were a good size, not too much & not too little. We split the salad & took 1/2 the grinder & the equivalent of 1 small pizza home. (which technically was overkill, but they don't do 1/2 & 1/2 on specialty pizzas & I couldnt decide between the two. (The scampi won by a margin) I would definately feel comfortable coming back here with company. ”
“ I just found this restaurant and I will say it is my new favorite. We had a hummus platter and a pizza. The food was so good. The servers were attentive. The restaurant is small, but also cozy. Can't wait to go back. ”
“ I ordered takeout: the eggplant rollatini was really delicious! It came with pasta which was also very tasty. I'll definitely come back. ”
“ It's been a while since we've been here but it is still a really good place for lunch. A nice quiet spot with ample parking and a full Italian menu. Nice friendly service, good portions. Always very clean with nice fresh food. ”
“ Excellent! We started with eggplant fries. Breaded and fried perfectly. Gnocchi with pesto sauce was delicious and portions are large. Took some home. Bread was warm and came with butter and olive oil. The Gelato flight was much bigger than I expected. Service was great. We sat by the window so the table was well lit and comfortable. We will be back! ”
“ Loved this gem in Simsbury! Great food, friendly family owned and operated restaurant. I've been back twice since finding it and plan to become a regular there!! Great classics Italian dishes and good selection of beer and wines too. You know it's good when the guy it's named for is cooking and his daughters are your servers! I'm giving it 5 stars! ”
“ I'd heard about this place - supposed to have really good pizza. So we decided to take the trek across the river to Simsbury to try it. Solid 4 in my opinion. I thought the pizza was good and worth the trip. My husband thought it was ...ok. Ordered the thin crust pizza with hamburger & olives. Pretty tasty & crispy, just the way I like it. Not a lot of sauce though and I did wish that there was more spice/herbs in the sauce. We also got a house salad to share - definitely a decent portion. The ciabatta bread that came with it was good. I'd heard that the pasta dishes were good. Perhaps if I can convince my husband to venture back, we'd try that. Service was good. The restaurant was clean and comfortable, very casual. There were also some tables outside. ”
“ Ok so that bacon cheeseburger pizza is fantastic! The crust tastes like a toasted bun and the flavors and toppings were just *chefskiss* all the bacon cheeseburger flavors!! I will definitely be back and thank you for setting realistic pickup times!! I managed to take a picture before I ate it all. Seriously just try this pizza already it is delicious! ”
