615 S Lamar BlvdGorgeous giant elegant restaurant - great for a date night! $$$
Expensive Italian fine dining with pre-fixe tasting menus; their cacio e pepe dish is so cheesy and creamy!
Good dinner when celebrating something. If you give them a heads up, they might even print you a custom menu stating the occasion with your names!

This restaurant has such a beautiful interior AND exterior - if it’s warm outside, def sit outside! It’s also part of a hotel and near South Congress so the location is perfect! Food was pretty good - nothing extraordinarily great but definitely a solid 4/5 quality

Super popular - line can get long but it does move fast. Try to go at odd times in the afternoon but not too late because they do run out.
This place is absolutely worth it and affordable as well.
