Great little hole in the wall spot. Was the first of a group to arrive for dinner so I parked it at the ample bar space, which is to the left when you walk in. I ordered the house Cabernet and sat next to a lovely couple that highly recommended the chicken piccata as well as the homemade cavatelli. They come here once a week and live about 20 miles away but raved about the quality of food.
The group arrived and we sat in the dining area as opposed to the bar. This side was sparse for a Tuesday night but the bar was fairly full (including booths). I ordered the salmon with the homemade cavatelli. Portions were sizeable and the quality was fairly good. Others in the group ordered the chicken piccata and shrimp scampi. They left with clean plates. The real winner here was the chocolate ho-ho cake. That is: a light chocolate cake with a riccotta(?) style cream layer at the bottom, topped with chocolate syrup and whipped cream. Delicious. Overall Dino's is an easy going neighborhood Italian joint where you can expect to clean your plate. Much enjoyed!
