Went there Saturday night with 4 people. Here are the things that stood out:
- the bean dip
- the calamari apetizer
- the lunguine mare
- the risotto
- the service
We got the chance to talk tot he Chef, who is (refreshingly) actually from Italy (and not from little Italy 3rd Generation ;-) and got some insight as to his priorities for menu creation etc and his soccer favorites.
I think this is probably one of the best (authentic) Italian places in Charlotte, even though it comes at a price ($150 per couple incl wine). Not sure the ambiente really reflects the high expectations this place is setting through its excellent food.
