| - This place is fantastic!! We went on a Sunday afternoon. First, the place itself is really cool. They have a large glass case with different salumi and cheeses(?) and hanging meat cleavers. The bar is 1/2 inside and 1/2 outside. They also have a nice patio in front of the restaurant and one on the side. We sat at the bar. The bartenders were nice and funny. They have a great and varied menu but the meatballs are the star. You choose your meatball type, your sauce, and your bottom (e.g. pasta, risotto, polenta, etc.). They have other stuff too... salads, appetizers, flatbreads... something for everyone, really. On the happy hour menu (happy hour is all day, every day btw) we saw that they had a polenta board and a bottle of wine for $19. We thought, what the heck? Lets try it. I'm so glad we did. First, we weren't sure which wine we wanted so the bartender told us to try them all... and we did :-). We chose our wine and anxiously awaited our polenta board. So, the polenta board is literally a long (about 2ft) board that has a pile of mascarpone and parmigiano-reggiano polenta in the middle, topped with 4 large house meatballs, and marinara sauce. The board was also served with grilled bread. OMG, everything was so delicious. I was not expecting anything so good for $20. I can hardly wait to go back and try their other meatballs, pastas, sauces, charcuterie boards, and burrata. Great service, great food, great atmosphere!! Go:-)
