When we went, the service was slow so don’t go when you’re in a rush and don’t be afraid to be super “Israeli” and force the waiter to pay attention to you. They messed up our order the first time and though it took a while to get someone to our table to tell them, once we told them they fixed it right away.
The gnocchi with Tagliatelle Verde sauce was incredible and I will definitely go back for that dish again.
