Great restaurant with a cozy feel. Brings a nice atmosphere of a small town Italian eatery tucked away somewhere. If I compare with the Italian food I had in Italy, this is as authentic as it gets. Let's start with the most important thing.
Portions
Pasta portions are just enough. Italian falls under the category of heavy food for me. Their portions may seem small but filling enough. I'm a big guy and my stomach bigger so I can attest. Pizza I would compare to a personal pan. Remember though, these are thin crust. You aren't eating bread.
Dishes recommendations:
-Salmon Fusilli is highly recommended. The pasta is al dente (cooked firm but not hard) and the garlic tomato sauce is delicious and flavourful but not overpowering a perfect compliment to the salmon. The sauce is a little watery which is great to mop up with a slice of bread they give you so you can enjoy to the last drop. I suspect they use seafood brodo (soup stock/ broth) for the salmon fusili. The sauce is definitely different for the other pastas and it shows.
-Old fashioned stone baked pizza. Still sometimes it looks like an oddly shaped pizza with some slight char marks, but I digress. It does seem to enhance the homemade feel. =D Even more so similar to what I had in Italy.
Additional notes:
The owner is a friendly guy, if he isn't busy try to chat him up. Lots of interesting stories from him. Also, he is a fond wine lover so ask him for recommendations for the wine to go with your meal. He carries some interesting imports from Italy and Portugal.
