Ciao
Pasta
Fresh pasta, made by hand. The flavors of Puglia, since 1995.
From Flour to Fork
Pasta, made by hand.
Semola, soft flour, fresh egg. Worked, rested, cut to shape, and sauced to match. The way Chef Pasquale has made it since 1995.
Step 01 of 05
- 01
Flour and egg
It starts the way it has since 1995. Semola, soft flour, fresh egg, a little patience. Nothing from a box.
- 02
Worked by hand
Homemade doughs, the way Chef Pasquale makes them. Rolled, rested, and rolled again until the sheet is right.
- 03
Cut to shape
Wide ribbons for pappardelle, fine strands for tagliolini, short twists for trofie and strozzapreti. Each pasta its own cut.
- 04
Sauced to match
Truffle and porcini to the wide ribbons, pesto and stracciatella to the twists, a light red broth to the seafood.

Sent out fast
The kitchen moves. Guests tell us the food comes out quickly and hot, even when the room is full.

“Definitely get the calamari, just the right amount of breading, and save the sauce for the bread. The appetizers come so fast. If you don't come, you'll regret it.”
