After a few years intending to get here, the perfect opportunity presented itself on a recent Saturday evening. We reserved ahead of time via Open Table and were seated immediately on arrival. Instead of pizza or pasta, we opted for some small plates including a classic Buffalo Mozzarella and the Prosciutto (both pictured and both sensational). We also enjoyed arancini as well as a sauteed brussels sprouts dish. The arancini I might hesitate to recommend. I know it's a mozzarella restaurant, but the cheese filling within was a little over the top, and the tomato ragu served at side of the arancini could have had more traditional pepper punch. The arancini were also slightly over-fried. (As I write this I realize that having grown up close to an enormous Italian community, I'm picky about arancini.) We each had a glass of an Italian red wine that we thought was excellent. Lastly, we found most of the crew that night to be friendly and genuinely interested in making our visit the best it could be. With one noticeable exception.
So good! We tried three different kinds of pizza and all were interesting and flavorful. The saag paneer was probably my favorite. The crust was delicious -- thin, crispy and flavorful too. They have a neat space as well.
Nice place. Good and tasty food and friendly people. We really enjoyed our pizza. Their Mozzarella was fantastic too as well as their Italian beer.
Wonderful spot! Great food. Great service! Very nice ambiance!!
