“Sauce & Sandos” category 
(available during lunch) called 
Bucatini Cacio e Pepe, which 
featured toasted peppercorns 
and the salty hard cheese, 
Pecorino Romano.
The “Fire & Embers” section 
(available for dinner) lists 
six main entrees, including 
Whole Branzino fish and 
the 32-ounce, 28-day dry-
aged Porterhouse steak. The 
Rotisserie Chickens rotate to 
perfection in the middle of the 
open kitchen. Dishes featured 
under “Side Show” include 
BBQ Turnips, Potato Fritto, 
Radicchio & Chicory and 
Tuscan Beans. 
Dough makers and bakers 
in a separate room prepare 
many of the items listed under 
“The Sweets,” such as Zeppoli, 
Budino and Citrus Panna 

Cotta. I won’t soon forget the 
towering mound of creamy 
smooth “a la minute” Vanilla 
Bean Gelato (pictured above), 
featuring candied pistachio 
dust and chocolate shavings. 
That is one great dessert I 
could not finish.
Coming up for the restaurant 
is a neighborhood exterior 
gathering area and the opening 
of a retail and coffee shop with 
a separate entrance called Mad 
Nice Goods. To-go food and 
beverages will also be available 
here. Currently, lunch starts at 
11:30 a.m. Wednesday-Friday 
and 11 a.m. on weekends. The 
restaurant moves to dinner 
service at 4 p.m. daily.
