Overview

The awkward name may work against this new addition to the downtown dining scene, but the fine, authentic food may carry the day. Even the restaurant's Web site is hosted in Italy, where a sister restaurant reigns supreme in Firenze. The warm yet unmistakably European atmosphere is part Tuscan villa, part art gallery and makes customers immediately feel "in the know". Tagliata Pasta, cheeses imported from Tuscany and herb-infused olive oils are the staples here. The extensive Italian wine list is heavy on red wines. Call ahead for hours of operation.
