It's rare to find an Italian restaurant this wonderful. The owner's committment to authenticity is admirable -- they use the best olive oil (either Sicilian or Spanish I was told by the owner) that I've ever had in an American restaurant.
Quality ingredients and preparation. Why can't other places understand this?
Where to begin...the carpaccio of tuna with super fine shaved/julienned fennel: AMAZING. The ricotta gnochi; fantastic. The frutta di mare- type pasta also delicious.
I also really like the atmosphere, the spare polished tables and perfect lighting are conducive to a very comfortable dining experience.
Reasonably priced wine list with some unusual Sicilian varietals is much appreciated. The servers are fantastic, also, offering tastes of wines and very knowedgeable about the dishes.
Dish, how we love you!
