The food and prices, however, are remarkable. A look at the daily specials and a few explanations from the attentive serving staff reveal some special touches. The wine list is short but fairly priced. The flavorful mushrooms are cooked with garlic and pieces of prociutto. The clams and mussels are served in a vibrant broth with garlic, parsley, onions, and white wine that invites you to sop it up with bread.
Pastas are excellent, generous, and cheap.
When ordered al dente, they come al dente. Sauces, including a robust tomato sauce, are house-made. More-ambitious offerings were good, too. Clams with linguine and white or red sauce featured a dozen clams in the shell along with the expected seasonings. Main courses continue the quality.
