There are plates of thinly sliced meats with cheeses everywhere so it's hard to choose where to go, especially if you're a couple of vegetarians like us. We made a good choice here, ordering a cheese board for one and a mixed salad. The cheese board was so plentiful that we had to re-confirm that this was just a serving for one. It was. Really generous with 6 different local cheeses of various tastes and firmness, surrounding a cup of honey which sealed the deal for us. We loved this cheese board and left referring back to it as we had cheese in other places on our trip. The salad (I mean you have to occasionally eat vegetables...even in Italy) was basic, just arugula and tomatoes, but was super-fresh. Also they brought the region's famous bread in a paper bag. Well, I don't know if "famous" is the right word, but this is the only place in the world we'd experienced the bread brought in paper bags, so sign me up for its autograph. This was a great choice for a cheese plate among the many options on this street and in the area. The cheese board especially was our favorite cheese in the whole country.

Our waiter took excellent care of us, and we enjoyed watching the butchers at work assisting customers. Tucked up in the loft with a glass of wine, and later a coffee, was a perfect afternoon!

We were just asked to take a seat and it might be a while. Great. We got lucky there were parties before us that were waiting to seat 3 or 4. Within 10 minutes we were seated ahead of the larger parties. The place sits about 24 inside and almost that many outside. We looked around and almost all young Italians. A great sign. The place had energy. We looked at the food around us and we were happy. The menu is not very large which can someone very good...let's cook what we do best. Since the pasta dishes looked so good we had to have them. Tagliatelle Ragu and the Spaghetti alla Gricia with Guanciale. Both dishes were amazing. Delicious! And reasonably priced. $39 EUR for two with drinks. Highly recommend. Will definitely return on our next visit.
