Overview

Housed in an antique firehouse, this is a great spot for Italian meals and Old World hospitality. A youthful crowd predominates most nights; as diners linger over their post-dinner drinks, the atmosphere tends to get as wild as the colorful, impressionistic murals that cover the walls. The standard Italian fare experiences some unique twists in this kitchen, including crab-infused pastas, creative chicken and veal variations and sinful desserts. For a quick start, the calamari is a time-tested house favorite. Opens daily at 5pm.
