The barroom has nifty old tin walls and ceilings, painted a muted salmon. Even the chairs are extra-comfortable. The crowd, and it is a crowd, is integrated as to race and class, united in loving great food. The wine list is full of excellent bargains. A Pinot Grigio by the glass that doesn't taste like bubble gum.
Prices are low.
Food is extraordinary. Giovanni knows better. One of his hobbies is collecting mushrooms from secret spots all over the state. Don't miss it. Pastas are available as appetizer or entree.
