The design of the restaurant, which owner Antonio Mingalone named in honor of his father, is reminiscent of the family’s trattoria in southern Italy, with an open kitchen, elegant interior, and a diner-friendly bar.

Most cooking is done on our grill with popular dishes like Grilled Atlantic Salmon. You’ll also find delicious Breast of Chicken Piccatta, Lasagna Verdi, Rigatoni with smoked Salmon, Linguine Primavera tossed with Jumbo Gulf Shrimp, Butternut Squash Ravioli with sage white wine sauce. We offer imported fish flown in daily and certified Black Angus Rib-eye.

For special private events, reserve our beautiful Venetian room. It can easily accommodate up to 100 guests. Our lounge/bar area can also be reserved for Happy Hour Functions.

We also offer one of the nicest outdoor patios in all of downtown. It’s a popular spot for al fresco dining with a spectacular view of the Houston Opera House.

"I would not have been surprised to see a live squid tank in the kitchen. This was the freshest calamari I have EVER been served. I loved the two sauces and the lightly fried bay leaves and pepper strips that had obviously been flash-fried with the squid. " —City Search.com.
