My first visit to this restaurant was shortly after it opened about four years ago when it was an entirely different venue. It has developed from an enoteca serving an assortment of cold cuts into a full fledged restaurant.
If you have not visited before allow a little extra time to get there and probably it is a good idea to call for directions beforehand or en route. If you are going by taxi do not expect that the driver will know where the restaurant is located. Now, with that little piece of business out of the way you will arrive at a charming little house and garden with a warm and friendly interior design.

I would suggest starting with a selection of salumi and from there segue into a pork scaloppini with sautéed artichokes or another main course.
There is a selection of desserts if you have any space left.
The exceptional wine list is filled with well chosen Italian vintages and selections of wines by the glass are also available.
The owner, Niccola Bonazza is very obliging and will try his best to please you.
All in all I experienced an exceptionally pleasant evening.
