Let's face it, the building is a shack. The service SUCKS! No jacket is required. In fact, no shoes are required, either. But the food and wine are delicious! There's nothing pretentious about this place. Feel free to be yourself. Scream if you like. You'll mingle with professionals as well as street urchins in this establishment. It's FANTASTIC!

Pros: yummy food, yummy wine

Cons: bad service

Editor's Review

Don't discount authentic Italian in a distressed dive--one dinner is all it takes to delight.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

The Service

Legendary for being lax and inattentive. Some Southerners loudly declare "I'll nevah come back." Others consider it a trade-off. Be forewarned!
