You can also find traditional pastas and pizzas here, but I recommend sticking with the antipasti and insalate section, so that you can try a variety of items.\n\nThe owner, Scott Harris, has attempted to recreate a small Italian community here where cooking is influenced by the many small Italian villages he visited along the way on his travels. You will find Italian fare here, but with a modern twist.\n\nThe cocktail menu is excellent, and I highly recommend the Watermelon Caipfruita (cachaca + st. germaine + watermelon + mint + agave nectar + fresh lime) to start your evening of taste explorations.\n\nWe started with the roasted beets in walnut butter, cr\u00E8me fraiche, and candied walnuts. What wonderful textures and flavors! This was followed by the roasted cauliflower steak, which does look like a steak in the way it is cut. This was served with a Sicilian olive tapenade and marinated lemon jam. The flavors were wonderful, although the cauliflower could have been more tender. \n\nFollowing this came the truffled egg toast with fontina cheese and asparagus - a very unique and delicious combination. To round off the meal we enjoyed the crispy pork belly with cannellini beans and pears on an herb salad with mostarda oil. The pork just melted in our mouths, and was a most savory choice for our last taste. \n\nI think this is a wonderful place for groups, for sharing, for date nights, and with all of the space a likely destination for events as well.\n\nBravo!"^^ . .
