Editorial Review

This restaurant offers Old World charm and affordable prices in a cozy setting. Lovers grapple over which wood-fired pizza to share from the list of 16 pre-designed options; others exercise their right to expression and create their own. Vegetarian Giardina tops the crust with broccoli, snow peas, tomatoes and mozzarella, while Formaiollo assembles eggplant, zucchini, roasted red peppers and mozzarella. Another pie, Alla Peccorina, brings together black olive paste, spinach, garlic, goat cheese and mozzarella. Fettuccine salmone stirs capers, red onions, smoked salmon and tomatoes in white wine cream sauce. Mains $7.95–$18.95.
