One of my favorite meals...ever? After walking by and seeing plate after plate of delicious…read morelooking pasta, I steered my husband back here for dinner. We got the last table outside in front of the restaurant - inside, it was a full house. Adorable place and friendly - if a bit harried - service. Well, I was right - this was one of the top two versions of amatriciana pasta we have ever had! And my carbonara was textbook perfect, too. We had ordered a veal Milanese, as well, but then the heavens opened up. Thankfully, we were full, as we had to abandon our plates and huddle under the awning with everyone else! They quickly filled up with rain. We cancelled the veal with plans to return. Marvelous!

Delicious lunch today with a few varieties of striatelle, a sort of piadina bread filled with…read moreamazingness, and rigatoni Carbonara. Everything was really delicious, with top quality ingredients, and prepared with care. The Carbonara was surprisingly delicious, with a creamy texture and crunchy guanciale. Arrosticini di agnello were delicious too. The tiramisù was average, good but not the best tiramisù around, not worth it in my opinion. Coffee was not the best either. Anyway the food was amazing, so we were happy. Recommended!

We really went on a shopping spree at Alessi across the courtyard and then needed to catch our…read morebreath. The closest restaurant was this incredibly stylish, unique, Italian eatery... Complete with a beautiful garden and the finest of arts, we thought... time to rejuvenate! Our assorted meat appetizer was heaven in the sliced form. Salami and prosciutto and everything nice. Only in Italy can the preserved meat-form reach taste sensations like this. Add a bit of bread and extra virgin and you have reached the pinnacle of appetizers. Then, my Cesar salad took fresh organic lettuce, raw egg, anchovies, and perhaps a touch of Worcestershire, salt and pepper, combined in an emulsion of wonderful to bring taste to a whole new level. Even more, the taste was propelled by Grana Padano, the second best cheese on the planet - all due respect to Parmigianio Reggianio. Topped off with espresso, our two hour lunch filled us with energy to renew our shopping excursion. We look forward to returning!

They offered brioche, but also a custard filled tart (in two sizes) that is typical in the region. The walls are decorated in traditional items you would find in the region including woven basket 'plates' and prickly pear cactus. They have an assortment of coffee of specials on the chalk board as well as 'regular' coffee. There are a couple of 'two-seater' tables and three stools between the front window and the end of the bar. It was busy the day we went with people coming in to stand at the bar and drink their coffee, as well as some coming in to 'take away' pastry. The young woman behind the counter was very pleasant and quite busy. We sat at the bar (on the stools) or stood while we visited. This is a small location, very well maintained, the coffee is good and the service is with a smile.
