One of my new favorite places to eat in Springfield!! What a amazing dinning experience!!!!! The Lasagna is my favorite along with the Berry salad!!!! Nice variety of awesome desserts. The owner is also the very talented chef!!! We were greeted and made to feel right at home from the time we walked thru the door. This is a very clean and welcoming establishment, it makes you feel like you've been wisked away to Italy. We will definitely be back!!!!

We hadn't been here before, though we've lived in Springfield almost 12 years. We will be back! My eldest really enjoyed their spaghetti, I thought the risotto was incredible, and the youngest ate one slice of pizza completely, then told me he didn't like it (he liked it, but didn't like the "burnt" crust). I won't hold it against y'all though, he's used to microwaved pizza. It looked like GOOD pizza (and the oldest has probably already devoured the leftovers). The staff was very kind and patient with us first-timers, the ambiance is lovely and welcoming, quiet, and felt like we got to escape the modern world for a good 45 minutes. I will be recommending this restaurant to any friends looking for something better than fast food.

Everything was delicious and fresh. This is the best Italian food that’s actually authentic in town. Love sitting on the patio and the lunch special is unmatched! Two items for $12 is a wonderful deal. The portions are huge and the staff is so pleasant and kind!

The pizza was so good, we dived right in and never snapped a pic. We just happened to walk by and didn’t know what to expect. We were pleasantly surprised by how delicious it was! The service was very friendly and fast. The atmosphere was relaxing. We will definitely be coming back here next time we visit Springfield. 10/10 recommend. Picture is of my chocolate affogato.

We came in just before lunch and grabbed a gyro. I had mine with the house salad and my husband had his with soup. Everything was delicious. Service was fast and friendly as well. I'd recommend if you are in the area. It's a great little spot!

Fantastic!! I can’t even begin to explain how yummy our lunch was! Neat little place with friendly staff. We ordered the fresh bread appetizer and split a 12-inch pizza. Tasted like brick oven though I can’t confirm that. So fresh and tasty. The bread was soft and flavorful. Everything was great. Parking was super tricky because of Springfield’s love of one-way streets but 3 laps around the block and we figured it out.
