The all-day menu serves lunch and dinner dishes such as olive oil fried meatballs, rigatoni with roasted chicken ragu, crispy chicken limone, and salmon puttanesca, alongside a negroni and spritz bar. Daily brunch offerings include ricotta pancakes with mortadella and a breakfast carbonara with linguine, breakfast sausage, and pecorino.
