Our Ingredients

We believe that the soul of Italian cooking lies in the uncompromising quality of its components. From the fertile soils of Tuscany to the local organic farms of our community.

Olive oil pouring
The Foundation

Olive Oil &
Balsamic

The cornerstone of our kitchen is our extra virgin olive oil, cold-pressed from Frantoio and Leccino olives harvested on a single estate in the Chianti Rufina region.

Our balsamic vinegar is strictly Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale di Modena DOP, aged for a minimum of 12 years in wooden casks to achieve its complex, sweet-tart depth.

Fresh From The Earth

Seasonal
Produce

While our pantry staples arrive from Italy, our fresh produce is fiercely local. We partner exclusively with sustainable, organic farms within a 50-mile radius.

This hyper-seasonal approach means our menu breathes with the time of year — from vibrant spring artichokes to earthy autumn truffles.

Pasta making process
The Craft

Hand-Rolled
Daily

Our pasta is a labor of love, made entirely from scratch every morning using finely milled '00' flour imported from Naples and the richest, golden-yolked local eggs.

Whether it's cutting delicate strands of Tagliolini or meticulously folding Agnolotti, our chefs use techniques passed down through generations.
