On my birthday one year I wanted to go to an authentic Italian restaurant with my family. We love italian food and it is always a treat to take my mom somewhere that serves fresh pasta. When we stopped at Trattoria da Franco it blew my expectations. The homemade pasta is served inside an old brownstone in the heart of old town. Christmas lights create a romantic atmosphere for dining outdoors. This is a great date place or for your family, just beware don't bring large groups as they cannot accomodate too many people inside.
