At first we thought this little eatery was part of a chain but it is owned be a nice couple and the food is wonderful. They have both local and imported wine. The bread was warm and tasty. My meal was well balanced with just enough pasta, sauce and cheese. The tomato sauce was light and chunky with a little sweetness. Desert was scrumptious. We sat outside with our dogs for lunch and had a delightful meal

What a treasure! We visited Little Italy on our couple's weekend at a nearby cabin. Right away we were impressed by the heavenly scents, the Italian owner who seated us, the lovely atmosphere and the extensive menu. Our waitress, Jessica, was so much fun, with lots of great suggestions and she mixed incredible cocktails too! All six of us chose different meals and each was incredible. I'm gluten-free, so I appreciated the delicious zucchini noodle option for nearly all the menu choices. We wished we'd had time on our trip to come back for another visit!

For a local restaurant this is top notch. Great bread, pasta, service. Decent beer selection, I appreciate that I was able to get a red ale. Love the seafood specials. The tiramisu was excellent, among the best we've had.
