MOTHER SAYS:

It is the most idyllic location, I sat with a glass of wine and a magazine, while the kids played on the playground in front of the restaurant.

I had a glass of Chateau Montelena Chardonnay, it was light and dry, the wine is a little pricey, but so worth it.

The bread is fresh (two-types) and it is served with a delicious olive tapenade. The Burrata E Pomodoro is my favorite item on the menu — Mozarella stuffed with mascarpone cheese over mixed greens, seasonal tomatoes, lemon, oregano and olive oil.  This may be my favorite item on any menu.  It is so mouth-watering, pair it with with their wine and you are set, add their pizza if you are feeling extra decadent.

DAUGHTER SAYS:

Charlotte ordered the Angel Hair Bolognese:

So yummy, a lot of meat. It was really good. One-hundred percent good.

She ate every bite…

Rivers had the cheese pizza, which I also nibbled on.  It is a superb restaurant pizza, the crust is thin yet substantial and the topping is flavorful but not overpowering.  R gave it a thumbs up, which is saying a lot…
