    Not nearly as bad as the previous reviews. Would give 3.5 stars if I could figure it out. Our party was 4 and we had 3 different pastas and one pizza. The Arrabbiata was very mild but fine, the ravioli was also fine. The Tortelli Luchese was the best dish, but was advertised with a Bolognese sauce but it came with an alfredo or similar. The Rugala pizza was thin crust and thin on toppings overall but the ham portion was generous and the pizza was tasty. We had a bottle of the Luchese red wine and one portion of salad which was big enough for all to share and also quite nice.

    While none of the dishes were extraordinary, all were passable, the service was very nice and sitting outside in the piazza was delightful. Prices were pretty reasonable as well.

    I thought I'd expand my yelping with a restaurant that hadn't gotten reviewed much. Big mistake choosing this place. Unlike the cafe next door, which was full of English speaking folks, I came to Madame butterfly, which had mainly Italian speaking patrons.

    I can't believe how kraft macaroni and cheese tasting my lasagna was. It didn't even taste Italian, it tasted like a reheated frozen American dish. I should've known better when on the menu they offered a seafood dish for only 8 euro... (a decent restaurant with fresh seafood wouldn't charge any less than 18 euro).

    My cappuccino was delicious, but pretty standard everywhere I've gone in Italy.
