This is by far the best italian food I have ever had. We live in Raleigh and tried this place the last time we were in San Antonio 7 years ago. It left such an impression we had to track it down again this trip and it did not disappoint! Our server Philip was amazing! So attentive and engaging. And the food was even better than I remember. The trio crustini appetizer and the Shrimp Alejandra were incredible. I can't wait for our next trip so we can experience it again!

The food here was absolutely delicious! I picked this spot for a dinner date, and we absolutely loved the food. Each plate looked like it was carefully made and presented. The dishes we had, which were: romano crusted chicken & the lemon pepper snapper were so fresh and delicious I'd definitely recommend them although I did prefer the snapper over the chicken. The service was great as well. They're attentive and really nice. Next time I'm in town, I'll definitely be stopping by again!

Our first visit to this restaurant and it was very good. We were celebrating a friend's birthday and the atmosphere was very special. We ordered the shrimp and chicken. My wife said it was the best shrimp she had ever had. The shrimp was chrispy, tender, and delicious. The bread is made in-house and served hot and delicious.

Just wow. This restaurant is very impressive. By far some of the best Italian inspired food I've had so far. Shrimp bisque? Goooood Italian salad? Goooooood Chefs daily special - wowowowowowow... I'm definitely coming back. You have to have their inhouse dip for their delicious bread. And the prices are impressive, considering the food quality, taste, and location of the restaurant (very upscale area).

Pesto was absolutely fantastic! The food is amazing, the atmosphere is really nice and upscale, and the waitstaff is superb! I highly recommend coming here. We had the trio appetizer, chicken parmesean, chicken pesto and cilantro, and our friends had chicken pesto Chipotle. Everyone absolutely loved all their food.
