Some of the best Italian food in NWA. It is fresh, light, and absolutely delicious. Highly recommend one of the house made mozzarella's and we have tried 4-5 main courses and all are outstanding. You can also bring children here. They do not have a kids menu, but they will do a simple buttered noodle or spaghetti if you just ask. The owner, hostesses, and wait staff are all welcoming, knowledgable, and helpful with any questions you have.

Waiter Brian did a nice job. Food was as good as we have experienced at Saltgrass as we are regulars and have had some good food before but this was a cut above.
