We stumbled on this place by accident - it's in a shopping center off Fayetteville Rd north of the mall, so it's not the sort of place that leaps at you. BUT....what a gem worth seeking out! The service was great - we were sitting at a booth facing the courtyard, and the atmosphere was wonderful! We were there on Saturday night, and the trees were decorated with twinkling lights, which made for a nice view. People were talking, of course, but we could still converse comfortably without shouting. The menu was very authentically Italian with a great selection. I chose the Carbonara, and I have to say, it was the best I've had in the state! Portions are HUGE, prices are very reasonable, and leftovers heat well (which is one of my personal quirks, admittedly). The desserts looked yummy, but we were too stuffed to try any.
Pros: Great food, Reasonably Priced, HUGE portions
Cons: House wine isn't very good
