FEB 2006: I used to live around the corner from here and went every week. The food is surprising fantastic and inexpensive, while the staff very friendly and capable. I've had just about everything on the menu and have rarely been disappointed, and, as a ""foodie"" that's saying something. There is a small but acceptable wine list. The owners are still trying to figure out how to establish the ambience, but they've finally begun turning the lights down and the music up just a little so that you don't hear all the conversations around you. This is a small, family owned and operated place that gives you great food with great service at a great price -- you MUST check it out. ********* UPDATE - DEC 2006: Went back after being away for several months and the place is still fantastic. A couple more tables had been added and the place was doing brisk business but we were seated within a few minutes. The menu had changed slightly (the chef likes to change some items every month or so) and the variety and quality remained the same: great. The food was even better than what we'd had during a recent trip to Tuscany!!! All of the kinks mentioned in my earlier review have also been ironed out. The lighting and the music are perfect and the service is consistently good (not perfect, but very respectable).
Pros: Food, Inexpensive, Romantic
Cons: Parking
