| - Molto deliziosa! We ordered several appetizers and salads and figured we would order a pizza but we were too stuffed from the appetizers to even think about pizza. We enjoyed the Antipasto Misto which was an assortment of meats, cheeses and olives and the stuffed artichoke. The antipasto was the freshest I've ever had and was accented with an out of this world balsamic reduction. The artichoke did not impress me nearly as much, I found the leaves much too mushy. For salads, we ordered the Caesar and Caprese, both were unbelievably fresh with the perfect amount of dressing. I did, of course, save room for dessert and thankfully so because it ended up joining the ranks as one of the top ten best desserts I've ever eaten. I ordered the lemon napolean which consisted of amazingly light and crispy layers of pastry dough, sandwiched between some seriously delicious lemon curd and topped off with some real whipped cream and drizzled with a raspberry sauce.
The only thing stopping me from giving Crostata's 5 stars was the service. Upon being seated, we waited, no exaggeration 20 minutes to even be acknowledged by our server and it was another 15 minutes for our drinks to arrive at the table. I couldn't imagine going here for your lunch hour as we were here for almost 2 hours, so getting in and out seemed out of the question. For lunch, it was a bit on the expensive side but I am always willing to pay more for quality so I was one happy camper upon leaving.
