Food was really tasty at an affordable price.. Owner is really nice and cares about the establishment and his customers.. Byob or have the owner call the liquor store down the street for delivery!

Mushroom rissotto, gnocchi bolognase. Good stuff! They now sell wine by the glass or bottle. Byob has a corkage fee.

Get gluten free pasta, panini or risotto, then head down the block to Babycakes NYC for dessert!

The gluten free pasta was awesome. The waiter assured me that if tell them you're GF they'll adapt anything for you.

The cioppino is out-of-this-world good. It's a bottomless bowl of seafood with garlic bread for dipping.

Fresh food however suffers from new restaurant growing pain: be prepared for mixed up entrees and asked to take my dessert order before we even had our entree. I hope they will work these kinks :)

Bruschetta con funghi - so. delicious! The fettucini alfredo is also a great one serving size so you don't stuff yourself.

Super yummy mashed potatoes! Chicken piccata's a bit salty w/ too many artichoke hearts 4 me.

Their risotto is really nicely done. Pairs great with the house-made bread.

Byob no more. They sell wine by the glass or bottles. Still very resonable.

ByoB Wine that is! Paperbag your wine from home & bring your own glasses & corkscrew to have wine w/ your pasta

They put in taller plants so the patio is a lot more private!
