authentic Italian style restaurant
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/8/04
My husband and I ate this restaurant after having asked our driver for a recommendation for a good Italian restaurant that the "locals" liked. When the taxi pulled up at the front of the restaurant we knew we had been directed to exactly what we were looking for - a quaint, understated, friendly, Italian restaurant. We only speak and read English, but had not problem understanding the menu - and got exactly what we ordered. My husband had linquine with meat sauce and a ceasar salad and I had the lasagna and a mixed salad. The croutons were picked off of the caesar salad [because that's what he always does]. The tomatoes and thin sliced onions in my salad were so fresh and flavorable it was unbelievable! The lazagna was fabulous! We had a bottle of Argentine wine with our meal. After the meal we enjoyed lemon ice and Lemonc lli Citrus Liqueur [a drink we were introduced to on the Amalfi Coast in Italy]. Our waiter was exactly what who we would have requested if we had been given a description and instructed to make our choice. He was very friendly and very service oriented. I believe he knew when we walked in the door that we were there to have an enjoyable time and he set out to make it just that! He figured out immediately that we love Italian food. Our experience was fantastic.
