Awesome food & wine selection. In house Amaretto cheesecake was the best with hand made whip cream on top. I have travelled annually to italia for 20 yrs & this was the best cheesecake ever!

This has always been among the best Italian restaurants in town. Last night was no exception. The Burratta Speck appetizer was incredible. The saltiness of the Speck with the creamy mellow Burratta is wonderful. The risotto and pasta dishes were delicious especially the ravioli with truffles. The Pear in puff pastry was fabulous. The service is always perfect and our chance to spend a bit of time with Chef Andre made the evening priceless.

Excellent restaurant with amazing staff. High quality authentic Italian food that continues to excite my taste buds even tho I’ve been a regular for years. The lamb shank is to die for (May want to share) and the bread with their house dipping pesto sauce is unbelievably tasty.
The pear tart is unbelievably light and delicious. Highly recommend whenever it’s available

If you're serious about food and not about being trendy, a classic spot like LV will be perfect! Service was very good, and the food was full of flavor and freshness. The grilled squid with sautéed greens, olive oil and lemon was so good! I had the truffle ravioli which was in the night's special menu and my hubby had the classic carbonara. Looking around I just felt I was in a traditional locanda in Italy. No gimmicks, just serious Italian food. Romance was definitely in the air!

I was here three years ago and gave this lovely restaurant five stars. Today I was in the neighborhood and decided to try it again and we were a party of ten people and I was not disappointed.
The food is very delicious and the service is excellent, I will definitely come back again.
I came back today

Was a great fresh lunch ???? old style small romantic restaurant with lots of charm lunch for one or dinner for 2. Long vine list, prices are fair for the area. I will be coming back here for sure!!! Well it’s 2021 and finally made my 2nd round. I wanted to sit indoors today, I felt like I was back in Manhattan rich old school colors and furniture. I can hear the chef speaking Italian instant heart flutter. I was in the mood for a great piece of fish and dam the menu had it, perfect food service, it was amazing treated like a BOSS QUEEN complimentary white wine for me. Can’t wait to come back for a steak.

I could imagine myself at a small animated restaurant in Italy where locals gather and guffaw til late afternoon, and find such hearty and cheery meals. In reality, thanks for the reassuring and confident recommendation of our host, we settled on the following without too much difficulty:
The burrata was suffused with the pleasant diary aroma/sweetness, and the ultra-thin carpaccio nevertheless relayed the tenderness and flavor of beef perfectly. Also really liked the fresh arugula, which showed no trace of the usual bitterness. Our expectation for the entrees was certainly elevated after these appetizers - and we were not a bit disappointed!
More than its fantastic coloration, the ravioli brought you with the sea - the concentrated umami from lobster and squid hoisted waves in your mouth. What about the lamb shank - as my companion accurately remarked, you didn’t need the knife (which was quite sharp) in order to enjoy it - tender, juicy, and very masterfully seasoned.
As for the dessert, next time!
