    When you first arrive, you walk through the bar. I was afraid we were going to be seated near the bar which was rather loud. Thankfully, we were seated in the back, where the walls opened up so that we could enjoy our dinner al fresco. It was a lovely night, if not a little warm. But we enjoyed the open air. We shared the arrancini appetizer and found them small but flavorful. The drinks were overpriced so we passed. The bread basket was okay but I always appreciate a little more variety. I had the grilled salmon which came with broccoli and could have really used a second side, like risotto or a potato of some kind for $27. My date ordered the orrichette with sausage, which was covered in a green sauce which didn't look appetizing quite frankly and it was just okay. It's weird when sausage is green. Overall, the service was very attentive and the ambience was nice but we likely wouldn't return because the food just wasn't really special in any way. Which is surprising, because we used to love all of the Lamberti restaurants.

    chosen for convince to our stay, not disappointed, except a glass of wine would have been nice, its a bring your own, so be aware. Italian fare with unusual sauce, but very good. Small, quite busy. If I lived nearby, would properly go again at times.
