| - Really good Italian food! The restaurant is on the smallish side but modern. I can only speak to a few items on the menu, but what I did eat was ridiculously good. I ordered the semolina gnocchi as my main meal, although I think it's actually an appetizer. It wasn't as creamy as other gnocchi I've had, but that was actually okay; it was subtle and rich at the same time. The bacon wasn't overpowering, smoked just right, and really complemented the truffle sauce.
My friend and I each ordered the wine flights. I had the Sangiovese flight, which included three glasses of wine (not full glasses mind you) of Sangiovese varietals. The neat part was that the glasses were placed on a horizontal paper corresponding to the name of and information for the wine. It was fun to try different wines without making the commitment to one particular glass.
My group actually ordered the mozzarella ball, the Quttro Formaggi pizza, the Prosciutto e Rucola pizza, and Speck pizza. I unfortunately could not eat the pizzas or mozzarella ball, but they looked and SMELLED soooooo good. The general consensus seemed to be that the Quttro Formaggi was the best pizza (or at least according to my husband).
To top it off, we had the dessert pizza and chocolate lava cake. I'm not a fan of chocolate lava, but the dessert pizza was pretty good. It wasn't too thick, sweet, or overwhelming...you know, the kind where you have to have several gulps of water or other drink to wash it down.
Overall, a great place to eat and drink!
