| - Some of the best Italian food in the city! Located in the basement of a non descript office building. Plenty of parking. The atmosphere is classy, great bar and dining area. They have a wine room with a huge selection to choose from. The menu is outstanding and the service is exceptional. We opted to sit in the bar and our waitress Michelle was absolutely outstanding, she made our experience wonderfulÄ
We ordered the chefs collection of interesting things. (house cured salami, porchetta, olives, scrapple, nuts, pickled peppers, pickles, fresh riccota, and toast wedges). Simply delicious! Everything was fresh and flavorful, especially the sweet ricotta. Next trout cevechi w/beer foam, fresh greens and fennel. Definitely interesting, not sure if the beer foam really worked with this dish. To us, it took away from the fabulous fish. It just tasted like beer. Also had the roasted cauliflower and Brussels sprouts, both cooked perfectly and flavor was great, love the addition of almonds to the cauliflower. Also house made meatballs were some of the best we have ever had, the meat was tender and the sauce was simply devine. Finally, the stuffed peppers. The mix of the spicy pepper and fennel sausage was magic. To finish our meal we had three scoops of their house made gelato. (coffee, fig, pistachio). Really nice and creamy, a great ending to a fabulous meal.
