“ Absolutely loved this place! The sausage and mushroom pizza was delicious and very filling. The pistachio tiramisu was absolutely scrumptious — I highly recommend everyone give it a try. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the atmosphere was cosy yet bustling. We made a reservation in advance, as I’d heard this is quite a popular spot in town. ”
“ The staff is really kind and very aware of your table. The atmosphere also really nice. They have a garden in the back. The starters were really tasty and the pasta was very fresh and delicious,high quality ingredients. We ended up with an affogato and of course had to drink some spritz. Highly recommended can’t wait to go back ”
“ This is a great little restaurant serving Italian food like you get in Italy: far more than just pizzas, though they do those too. We had pumpkin gnocchi, seafood ravioli and truffle pasta, and they were all great. My tiramisu was the best I've had in years! The staff were helpful and friendly. Don't be put off by the relatively modest shopfront: it gets bigger behind the counter. ”
“ By far the best Italian place in Cambridge I’ve visited - for their pizza and pasta. Pizza are must haves! Thin and light wood fired base and crust edges that stays crispy and not soggy despite being left out for a while. You can taste the freshness of each toppings, especially the sweetness and tanginess of their tomatoes and marina sauce. The pairing pizza base sauce of marinara and white sauces were well seasoned and sauced in the perfect amount, which compliments and balances other ingredients and toppings perfectly. We only tried one pasta dish, but it left a good impression to predict other pasta dishes on the menu would taste equally good, or even better. Mafaldine pasta was cooked al dente, and the truffle bechamel mushroom and sausage sauce coated each strand of pasta. Seasoning is on point, rich taste from the truffle and bechamel but not too heavy. We finished 2 antipasti, 3 medium sized pizza and a pasta amongst 4 of us and didn’t feel too stuffed from the carbs, and even have enough room for 2 plates of tiramisu dessert. We had the regular tiramisu and pistachio tiramisu. Pistachio one was on the sweeter side but the pistachio flavour is distinct. If only have space for 1, recommend getting the regular tiramisu if not a huge fan of sweeter-than-usual desserts. All dishes were served in decent portion sizes and ingredients were not skimmed. High recommend, definitely my go to for Italian food. Shout out to all the staff members and Andrea who treated everyone with so much friendliness, kindness and so patiently went through the menu as a first comer. Great service despite a busy night. Very presentable dishes too! ”

“ We had an enjoyable dining experience at this charming local restaurant, which offers high-quality cuisine. Our meal included a ciabatta, several pizzas, and a pasta dish featuring truffle and sausage, which was exceptionally flavorful. For drinks, we chose the Nut Buster, a delightful concoction enhanced with a lovely amaretto flavor. To conclude our meal, we indulged in pistachio tiramisu and mixed ice cream, with the pistachio ice cream being particularly outstanding. While some dishes are on the pricier side, they are undeniably worth it. I highly recommend this establishment. ”
