| - Wandering down Queen West, I went for an early dinner with one of my closest friends. We arrived and were seated with no wait just before six on a Thursday night.
We checked out the fully extensive menu and decided to share a pasta dish and a pizza. For our pasta it was the Cavatelli al Sugo D'Agnello (17.95 handmade cavatelli, slow cooked lamb tomato sauce, pecorino) a small, nicely al dente pasta served with a tomato sauce with super tender lamb. Really tasty, though we agreed that we probably would have gotten tired of the pasta had we been eating a whole dish of it.
For our pizza, we chose the Santo Stefano (17.95, tomato, mozzarella di bufala, fresh arugola, prosciutto di parma.) The pizza was great. I get that they don't cut the pizza put with the arugula and the prosciutto it would have been so helpful, we were sawing away. It was super tasty.
Service was good - maybe too good. I would have hoped our food would have come out in courses, but in retrospect I didn't make that completely clear. Our food came out after only a few minutes - we ate our pasta first which meant the pizza was a little cold by the time we got it.
All in all, a tasty dinner, but with the prices we were paying I would have hoped for a better paced meal. As we headed out the door I could imagine why we were in and out in under an hour, by a quarter to seven the lineup was out the door.
