A seriously worthy place to splurge on carbs. Bread is amaze. Meatballs are moist and tender. Pasta is extremely fresh. Parmigiano Gelato = I've died and gone to heaven.
The highlight here are definitely the homemade pastas. Crostini are delicious too especially the parmigiano "gelato." Cocktails good but overpriced.
Pastry chef Alex Levin has established the Navy Yard Italian haunt as the place to go for dessert. Charcuterie dishes and Italian cocktails are also worth exploring here. Read more.
There are only a few flavor options each day but chocolate is always on the menu. Creamy and flavorful, you can’t go wrong with a scoop—or two. Get one scoop of hazelnut and chocolate. Read more.
Definitely try the grilled octopus. We loved the rigatoni with fennel sausage ragu and the saffron zucca!! The Brussels sprouts were perfect and the maple and brown butter gelato sundae was awesome!
The rotating menu of fresh, seasonal ingredients is incredible. The maple custard with hazelnut crumble is not to be missed.
Critic Tom Sietsema: Nothing predictable about wine selection. Get: 2011 chablis from Gilbert Picq ($50). For food, get the baby octopus or hand-made pastas. Share the fried artichokes or crostini. Read more.
