Yes I am adding another English language review for this restaurant, but rest assured that when I…read morewas there every other customer was speaking Italian (or possibly Piedmontese, who knows).
Augusto simply serves high quality what I would call "pan-Italian" food. No, it can't claim to be Piedmontese or Ligurian, but so what? I had the Marinara pizza and it was excellent, possibly the best crust I have ever had - not too thin, not to thick, and everything just right. The tomato spread was just the right thickness and balance between garlic (generous) and tomato. I also had the steamed mussels - it isn't directly stated on the menu but they have a choice of a simple steam or a tomato broth. I opted for the tomato broth and it was superb - all of the right garlic and wine notes, and the mussels were steamed just right, and as we know that is a fine line between undercooked and overcooked that is the mark of a restaurant that truly cares.
Pro-tips: The house red is excellent. Sit outside in the sidewalk area if you can. There are English menus available.
