| - I finally made it to Pizza a Metro last night, and all I can say is WOW. Dave had the pizza, but I wanted food food, so I ordered the Chicken Picatta. It was frankly just amazing. The chicken was a tender as could be, and the flavor was out of this world.
It's not a huge menu, but they have all the standards, chicken, veal, all the pastas, and some fish. No alcohol, but the party next to us did bring in their own wine (I never did find out what the corking fee was).
I really don't love their location... not that it's far, but it's in a teensy little strip mall that consists of a seedy Circle K (the one that has an armed security guard posted outside the door after dark) and a hair salon. But inside it's really just lovely. The owner is as Italian and friendly as they come, although please, Signor, I may be a divorcee with a teenager, but still, can't you help a Signora out and call her a Signorina?
Prices are more than reasonable too.... I can get my favorite dishes to go for probably less than it would cost me to prepare them at home. Yet another place to keep on my list of go-to places, yay!
