This is a wonderful little place tucked into the corner of a strip mall. I selected it for our anniversary dinner. The guy that greeted us said a funny thing about the ocean view table, which was a cozy two-top next to the windows. He said we looked familiar, we said probably not, we're from Hawai'i. It turned out that he used to be the restaurant manager at the Elks Lodge in Waikiki, and he remembered us!! Jon works the front, greeting guests and waiting on tables, his wife Shari (a Hawai'i girl!) is the chef.

Excellent food, fresh ingredients and good portions. All the other diners were regulars, and that gave the place a nice feeling. Casual dining in an elegant little dining room. The best in Italian food!!
Check them out!

Five stars!
