| - One of my favorite places, definitely my favorite casual Italian place. Stepping in here is like stepping into somebody's home for dinner. The chairs and dishes don't all match each other, but they don't need to as long as the food is delicious, which it definitely is.
This is the kind of place you go when you want to bring a bottle of wine and chat with friends for a few hours. It's a little slow, but it's the perfect environment to relax and eat, and the staff is really friendly. They start you off with their flat bread with amazing dipping oil. I would love to be able to make this at home because it's the best dipping oil I've ever had. It's full of herbs and so much garlic...my favorite.
I've been here a few times and have tried a lot of their pastas. It's all amazing. The last time I went this weekend, I got the chicken parm, which was a huge piece of chicken parm on top of spaghetti with red sauce, with a little bit of alfredo drizzled on top. Even the leftovers the next day were delicious. Even their homemade salad dressings are amazing. I prefer the Italian dressing, but love their ranch too.
One new thing we tried on this trip was the sauteed mushroom appetizer, which was gigantic and tasted awesome. Mushrooms and onions sauteed in a wine sauce, and then covered in provolone. We passed it around the table and everyone wanted some. Even my boyfriend who only just started eating mushrooms loved it.
Seriously worth checking out. Go there as soon as you can!
