Fodor's Review:

The Petterino family has run this two-story restaurant since 1966. The downstairs has the rustic feel of a northern Italian trattoria, with the cramped seating adding to the intimacy. All pastas are made on the premises; the Bolognese sauce is a favorite. Raw artichoke salad, conejo en Salmi (rabbit in a wine sauce), and filete al burro nero (steak in black butter) are all tasty dishes, served in a very cosmopolitan setting right on elegant Reforma but away from the main flow of traffic.

Although you might not see it from the out side view, it is actually a very nice restaurant with a great atmosphere and fantastic dishes and what to say about value, you could not buy better any where for the prices in this nice piece off Italia
