Fresh ingredients and considering their price point, great wine! Too far to walk from our Wilson Park airbnb but worth the few minute drive. Homemade mozzarella, pasta and sauce. On busy weekends, you may have to wait to get seated. Restaurant is noisy but the food makes it worth it - besides finding a quiet restaurant that also has good food is a bit tricky!
