The menu is mostly in Italian and may take some time to explain, and with specials, and perhaps a visit to the table from the chef to talk about tonight's offerings, not a rushed experience.
We went with two grandchildren ( 8 & 10) who routinely eat at "adult" restaurants. They enjoy asking about how something is prepared, can I have it with...?, etc. I don't recall that there was a children's menu. We went at 4:45 pm on a Friday, with a reservation, so meals were served before the room filled. It was full by 6:00 pm. Definitely go early, and understand the menu before you get there. We didn't see booster seats or high chairs, and we didn't see any little kids.
I just came back from Italy and although the menus are in Italian, they have copies that have an English translation below each Italian entry, just saying.
