I'm pretty surprised at some of the bad reviews this place has gotten on Yelp. When you ask a waiter for recommendations, you're committing yourself to taking a risk by ordering what someone you don't know recommends(either he/she likes it personally, or it's 'popular'). So, be gutsy and don't do it.
We started off with a bottle of the Brentino wine and the grilled octopus. The octopus was in a citrus vinaigrette and was pretty amazing.
The tagliatelle with charred sweet corn and truffles was excellent. The sauce was made with a special butter(I forget what kind) that was more flavorful than normal butter, but not as cloying. The bucatini was also very good and spicier than other allamatriciana dishes I've tried.
The service here was pretty excellent, both the bartender and our table waiter were very attentive. If you come here, order the octopus and a pasta. I'd stay away from the fishes and meats just because the restaurant is mainly about the home-made pasta.
