"The first time here and it was great. Came at 4:30 and only one more couple came in until we were at 6. The tables are beautifully spaced and the decor is charming. Very clean. Our waiter Aldo was also very attentive and friendly. The bread that comes before the meal was warm fluffy goodness. The asparagus soup was so good! It looks rich, but it is light and only a touch creamy. Loved how good it was seasoned and asparagus taste was phenomenal. The best part was how hot the soup was. Usually go to restaurants, the soup is leached 2 seconds after the order and it is warm, but I loved how hot the soup was here. The shells were perfectly seasoned and the sauce was great. Didn't have a drink at dinner, but I'll say the shells were pretty tiny. Maybe only the batch they got this time since I saw the pictures of other people with much bigger shells. Tasteful but. The parpardelle was food for the soul. Cooked al Dente with a rich creamy sauce that is not too thick. Scallops, spinach, crab and sun-dried tomatoes came together wonderfully. The Strawberry Panna Citta was probably one of the best I had. Had beautiful crispy pieces almond top, the fantastic texture added. The strawberry flavor tasted fresh and the chocolate syrup to the side was a nice touch. The only rare was the regular cream brulee (they had also flavored a chocolate). It was a bit eggy and the comminuted sugar had a slight bitterness. I'm just gonna torment this because everything else tasted so good. Needless to say, I was still very happy with my meal and will be back."

"in the love of terroni, a warm but wide open Italian cuisine that offers several culinary experiences in its doors. at the arrival they are led to the bar area which has seating and communal space. Their cocktail list is only crying from their Italians, perfectly paired with their style of kitchen. However, if they ask romeo their bar manager, he can ask them on a tour through their eclectic amaros that they offer, with something sweeter, but others either dark and medical or complex and smokey. behind the bar the restaurant opens into a cave-shaped, high covered dining room. more there are several private rooms that make perfect board meetings or party type events; a long table room gives a vintage stonecase from the time it used to be the national bank and leads to a round table room with old vaulted windows and an extensive wine room. eating is amazing, even with nightly specialties I ordered from tonight. I started with a mozzarella and tomato dish, which was so rich, the mozzarella crunchy, the tomato still on the winery, and the brot is the correct balance of butter and crunchy. I then had a pasta dress perfectly paired with a nebbiolo. prepared al dente, I had the spaghetti alla noricina that was finished with a healthy shading of black truffles. this court was all I needed to clean up what was attacked at the last night. this southern Italian cuisine is, yet another winner for the inner city and is perfect for a date night, casual soiree group light or private party. I wish you could try the next lunchbox dinner in terroni."
