Delizioso!!
Date Of Last Visit: October 11th, 2018

Oh my this place is good! I dream about the pasta I had while here! My husband and I stopped in one night while staying and visiting the parks for our honeymoon and it was so good that we came back the following two nights!! It was incredibly busy every time we came, but the wait wasn't bad and we made reservations for the following nights. It's a very fun atmosphere and a nice touch with the open kitchen and pasta making area. We are coming back for our anniversary this year and already have plans to eat there multiple times!
