Great food. I had the baked pasta trio, while my wife had the tortellini alapana with chicken. We both enjoyed our meals enormously. I wished the menu had mentioned the meals came with side salads and garlic knots, as I ordered garlic bread and didn't need to. The garlic bread was pretty good, though. We will definitely be back.
Ordered Alfredo pasta and a baked pasta, both were good. Their salads are great too. Knotted bread that came with lunch was fresh out of oven. Will be back for sure. Friendly people :)

Will definitely return thanks guys 4 a great night! lemon chello cake was awesome!
Fun little Italian diner. Very basic, open seating areas with a family atmosphere. Food was solid. The free salad is just a tiny bowl of lettuce. The cheese bread was pretty meh, don't really recommend. Chicken Parm was good, but mostly breading and not much chicken, although you do get two strips. The garlic knots were dry, but absolutely heavenly with the red sauce of the chicken parm. Tv was up playing sports. No free wifi. Service was quick and friendly, although it can get rather busy. Recommend for a quick and solid Italian food.
The best Italian I've had in Cincinnati! I had the pasta combo with lasagna, manicotti, and a stuffed shell. OMG - it was DELICIOUS!! Entrees also include a side salad and garlic knots.
We arrived around 4:30pm on a Saturday and waited about 20 minutes to be seated. When we went to order, our server informed us the kitchen was backed up and our food could take up to an hour. We said that was fine and expected a long wait for our food. Our food came out within 20 minutes!
This place is a top pick for homemade Italian!
