A tad pricey, but who really cares, because like I said, HOLY GAWD. It's that good. \n\nGet the burrata. Just get it.\n\nGet the eggplant parm if you want to taste eggplant parm the way it's supposed to taste.\n\nEven the soup, which comes along with the meal (or a salad, if you wish) was redonk. And it wasn't even a \"wow\" type of soup -- just mushroom barley. Still amazing.\n\nThe wine. OH, the wine. They have a funny, interesting, clever story that goes along with their license to serve alcohol. I won't bother explaining it. Bottom line is, they have a tasting license, so you can buy wine and they can offer it to you in servings once you finish your glass. The wine is everywhere; it can't be ignored. JUST BUY THE WINE. AND DRINK THE WINE. I had Amarone for the first time ever...this is my new favorite wine.\n\nEverything, from the intimate vibe, to the \"oops, are we in the right place?\" setting, to the same lady serving everyone who's served everyone since the beginning of time, along with her whole family, talking to you, serving you, and loving on you Italian restaurant style...is perfect.\n\nFive thousand stars."^^ .
