All good. I loved having a view of the bustle of the restaurant and especially all the parties celebrating birthdays. A few employees would gather at the table while delivering dessert and sing happy birthday. A few patrons like me joined them in the serenade. Such a warm, family vibe. A lovely gentleman sat in the open bar stool next to me. Turns out he's a regular and longtime Boulder resident. He gave me some menu tips. Plus it was fun to learn about him and his business. I had the red wine on tap. Delicious and $9. Two favorite qualities in wine. I got the bolognese with linguini. It was beyond fabulous. Insert chef's kiss! I took a small container home because I knew it would make a perfect lunch the next day, and it was. The rolls are divine. Hard, crunchy exterior with softness on the interior. I had one there and brought a second home to enjoy with lunch the next day. I know how to live. I enjoyed a short chat with Mariano, the owner's son who basically grew up there. It reminded me of all my favorite places in Philadelphia where I'm originally from. I had been missing my casual Italian restaurant places but now I've found my new home. Cin Cin!

We pass by this place a lot and they always seem busy so we thought it was time to check it out…read more Personally, not a favorite of ours. I can't tell what makes it special and unique as an Italian restaurant. It's not advertised that they make their own pasta so I couldn't really tell you. This is truly a 2.75 star experience. It's a really popular place for a first dates (we saw a lot of first dates). But this place is small so if you talk in a louder voice, I can hear your first date conversation from across the room and I now know what your favorite color is and a story about your aunt. Just keep that in mind (it's also not a loud restaurant so your date will be able to hear you). Food was okay. The chicken piccata was underwhelming. The best part was the pasta itself. Not enough chicken pieces for what it is. The fried mozzarella was interesting but not for me. The best was the chicken Alfredo and even that was just okay. For the price that we paid, I would've preferred to go to the chain and get their chicken Alfredo because it's always enough to last me 2 meals.

We both went w the homemade pastas instead. Our waitress was lovely she was attentive and recommended many great options. We started w drinks a beer and non alcoholic sea glass white wine, I was impressed this was one of the best non alcoholic glasses of wine I've ever had. We order the scampetti alla romana grilled shrimp it was the best we've had since moving from Chicago and our beloved "Orzo Italian restaurant" of old town we frequented. Was hot when arrived perfectly grilled nice char and not overly garlic w touch of red pepper flake. We both filled up our order w shrimp in our main dishes based on how delicious and perfectly cooked our shrimp was. My husband ordered the pallardelle fruta which came in red vodka sauce w shrimp and small lobsters and I order the pappardella costa added grilled shrimp this was in cream sauce w truffles. Both were on special from homemade in house pasta not on regular menu. And both were rich and delicious and perfect size we left comfortable not stuffed. We opted not for dessert at this meal. The atmosphere was spring break for CU so it was quieter I'm sure if classes in session would have been busier but it was lovely for quiet dinner date w spouse to be able to hear each other wo shouting. We most definitely will be back very impressed from seating within 2 mins of arriving for our reservation of 630pm to wait staff and bus staff on point w checking in and removing dishes and cleanliness of restaurant to food arriving well spaced between drinks and appetizer to entrees and allowing us to rest before being rushed off for our table to be sat next.

We also ordered spaghetti ( because they don't offer linguini). We ordered the clams and their butter sauce. The clams had no flavor and there was no meat on them. The butter sauce was lacking flavor and we have never been more disappointed with pasta and clams than by either this dish. The pasta was overcooked period. The portion was ridiculous for 38 bucks. I would have been happier if I could have stepped into their kitchen and made the pasta and sauce myself. Olive oil, basil, oregano, garlic and cooked the pasta to the right amount of time. The dinner for 3 with tip was 135 bucks. I don't mind if food is prepared right and taste good etc but it wasn't.

We were also surprised to learn they won't give a split check due to credit card fees, but we figured it out. I'm sure we'll be back next time we're in town.

Seriously, it was phenomenal. I should rewind a smidge and tell you about the appetizer we loved as well. We choose the Carpaccio and again, another home run. This was such a lovely night.
