| - My Wife and I, who are new to town, visited Babbo last week. We both love Italian food eateries and Babbo did not disappoint.
We went for an early dinner at 4pm and had to wait 15min to be seated, the place was packed at 4 in the afternoon, great sign of goodness to come.
The complimentary warm bread and olive oil was fresh and tasty, excellent.
I had the Margherita Pizza and my Wife had the Spagetti and Meatballs. I always order the Margherita the first time I go to a new Italian joint, to me that will tell me all I need to know about the place far as how serious they take themselves as being authentic Italian food. It was SO good, fresh crust, the roma tomatoes were garden fresh and exploded with flavor. Nothing is better when you take a bite of a great margherita pizza and you taste the cheese and tomoatoes and smell the fresh basil. Its a great combination of goodness.
The spagetti and meatballs were just as good as the pizza. Its another Italian staple that to many new diners try to "modernize" and just mess it up. Fresh noodles, sauce and meatballs. Just put them together and let them do their job, it was very tasty.
As much as we enjoyed our entrees the star of the evening was the Italian Sodas. Yes, this place is serious. We had the Verry-Chanilla and Dreamsicle. Both were so cold and refreshing and bursting with flavors. Perfect for a 109 degree summer afternoon.
The hostest was very polite and friendly and as were our waiter. Great customer service.
For this visit I give 4 stars, but only becuase I plan on returning and Im sure I will be just as satisfied the next time and will have a 5 star dining experience.
