June 2, 2025 at 12:54 amVery very loud place
Very narrow
Sat in high tops mostly.
The food was ok and a lot of it was too creamy and missing acid or an element to break it up
Kinda struggled to hear each other
Waiters were kind
We were told the truffle pasta would taste like truffle and olives, the olives were not prominent as an fyi
The aracini missed acid
The beef that everyone raves about has too much mayo, it’s all you taste
Overall felt like a lot of fat missing acid
Also we left hungry and didn’t want to eat here anymoreMcKenna Wood

June 28, 2025 at 2:00 pmDelicious! Italian deliciousness! We had dinner and drinks at the bar. Good service, good food. Ambiance but could be a little more. Very noisy, hollow sounding, my only
Complaint. (Industrial, brick. Fits with the area a whole, but doesn’t make for cozy feel) We felt Portions NOT shareable. We shared and I only got 2 bites of main dish. Would order my own next time. Had a beet salad-delish, and Tajarin was excellent! BREAD IS DELICIOUS-but have to ask for it. Not served otherwise. In a walkable area from our hotel. Felt safe at 9-10:00. Would go back again. Delicious!!John Lei
July 13, 2025 at 2:03 pmA new gem in the Durham area. The food tastes very good and the price, compared to price of everything these days, is very reasonable. Both entrees were $21. Definitely give it a try if you’re feeling italian or take a date there. I’d definitely visit again!

August 16, 2025 at 5:33 pmTook my vegetarian partner to dinner for his birthday, great food selection and ambience. Ordered vodka pasta and eggplant parmigiana. Both were delicious but definitely would go back for the vodka pasta. They have a complimentary panna cotta for dessert which was sooooo good!
