Mine is a small family-run restaurant, I prepare each dish at the moment to guarantee you an authentic taste experience.

Reservations are truly precious to me! They allow me to optimize preparations, avoiding food waste and ensure that you always find your favorite dish ready without having to wait.

To comply with the Italian regulations for take-away restaurants, I use disposable plates, cutlery and glasses. Attention to the environment is a priority of mine and therefore all materials are compostable.
