Excellent. I'm an Italian food snob..Cucina is awesome!
One of the best indicators to me is a simple cappelini.. No meat, no fuss, just great pasta and sauce. Cucina has one of the best.
This is honestly one of the best places for authentic American Italian. I hate overcooked pasta..The pasta here is made fresh (I asked), and not overcooked (good bite). Also, Cucina is great for vegetarians, or pescaterians...plenty of non meat or seafood options.
Service is good. We sat at the bar, and had Abel....one of the most personable and accommodating servers I've had.
I do not really like to give places 5 stars, but I think Cucina deserves it.
