What Makes Its Pasta Perfect: Pasta is homemade and includes complex dishes, such as Cavatelli e Piselli (homemade pea flavored ricotta cavatelli with hot and sweet sausage ragout) and Fettucini con Fungi (a flat noodle with wild mushroom and a touch of truffle oil).

Worth Special Mention: The wood fired Italian food and global selection of wines get rave reviews on Yelp as does its outdoor seating in warmer weather. The outdoor terrace faces the Saugatuck River.
