The food is FANTASTIC (best Italian we've had since the North End in Boston), great atmosphere and it's moderately priced.

It's a really nice place and the food is superb. -Dave In article , [email removed] (Lyn Pierce) wrote: > Bill S. wrote: > > > >I am new to Austin and I am looking for a great Italian restaurant to > >propose to my > >girlfriend.
