Yummy Italian Food! That's all that needs to be said about this quaint, family-run restaurant. I was there on a Tuesday night with some girlfriends, and we had the full attention of the staff. They were very knowlegable about the food, which was just delicious. I was debating between the skate in lemon caper sauce with grilled vegetables, or the chicken with artichokes...settled on the skate and loved every bit! I ate it so fast, you would have thought I was
headed to jail. Tasted my friend's mushroom risotto, which was also great. The chef offers many different pasta dishes, and has an innovative take on some pretty classic appetizers, like caprese salad with eggplant. This place is right near my other Italian fav, Luna Caprese...this one is a little more casual and more moderately priced, but just as impressive!
