Inspired Italian Cooking — and we mean inspired. We blend Old-World elegance with Santa Cruz fresh seafood and vegetables. Our imaginative Italian flavors deliver memorable dining at a neighborhood-restaurant price. Wood-fired oven and rotisserie, wines from Santa Cruz area vintners and wine flights from select Italian wine regions, contribute to a unique and unforgettable dining experience.

Is there a dress code at the restaurant?
|
|
A.

Our vision has always been to have a neighborhood restaurant that’s comfortable for everyone to attend. The fact that most patrons think that our environment is elegant is a plus — no matter what you’re wearing, wouldn’t you like to be surrounded by a bit of elegance? So, come dressed to the 9’s or in sweats — you’ll be welcome.
