Surprised I haven't seen any posts about this place yet. For those of you who don't know, it took over the Arturo's spot. Ate there last night. A home run! Great looking. Great food. Great service. I had to get my "go to" entree, before I venture out to other items...chicken parm. Dare I say it was the best in the area? And I order chicken parm everywhere!
I'm a big Chicken Parm fan - just made some for lunch. Not too much sauce on that one - but will try it out one of these days!
It comes with penne with vodka sauce but I asked for marinara sauce. I'm sure you can ask for more sauce on the chicken. Report back!
I too thought there should be more sauce and cheese on the chicken but perhaps that is my old neighborhood typical Italian fare. Regardless of the side dish involved.
Not a lot of reviews here. I ate there Tuesday night for the first time. The space is very nice- lots of tables inside. Didn’t seem too close together until I left. But is fine.
The good- meatball appetizer, a large single meatball with sauce. Very good texture and flavor. Get the bread with it ($5 but worth it). This would satisfy two people.
The sort of not great- the stracciatella appetizer ( listed under “for the table”) $14 for one very small crostini. While tasty- there should be three pieces served. Won’t order that again.
My dinner was the cacio e pepe bucatini. The pasta was very much overcooked. The cacio e pepe sauce itself tasted pretty authentic. The server offered parmigiana cheese- I of course told him it requires pecorino romano- he had no clue. But it didn’t need more cheese.
I will return to get the meatball again and try some of the other entrees.
Btw- the place was packed when we left. We got there around 6:30 and seated right away.
We went last week. Had the Stracciatella and Prosciutto di Parma for appetizers. Enjoyed both. For entrees we got the Fussili, Bucatini, Scallops and Risotto. The only one I wouldn't go for again was the scallops. They were fine, but just preferred the other dishes, especially the risotto. We got tiramisu and a cannoli for dessert. Both were good, but not good enough to leave the gun, if I had one. The service was excellent.
