Our casual restaurant has a retro contemporary theme which includes a carved wood bar topped with marble, granite table tops and bright turquoise and red accents flanking the wood-burning brick oven. Terrace seating is shared with our fine dining concept Bella Roma. Flavio, a third-generation chef from Venice, Italy, says his Farinata is not available anywhere else in the area. The thin pancake (much like a tortilla) is made of chickpeas, baked in the wood-burning oven and enhanced with rosemary and other savory toppings. Among Flavio's thin-crust pizzas (his grandfather's recipes) are the popular Quattro Stagioni (fresh mozzarella, mushrooms, prosciutto, olives) and the Pizza Vegetariana with assorted grilled veggies. The rustic bread and focaccia are made on the premises. Flavio's also serves up house-made pasta dishes, plus veal and seafood entrees. We look forward to serving you!

    First time at this restaurant and several people were waiting outside for the doors to open at 5 PM when entering, I thought the look of the restaurant was fabulous from the lighting to the decorations on the walls to the bar, which is meticulously neat as a bit. Our server came quickly, brought us water and beverages of choice. We ordered the short ribs with fettuccine and it was out of this world delicious I plan to go back again.

    We really enjoy the atmosphere. It was very loud last night, mainly because the table behind us was ridiculously loud. Not much you can do about that. Service: salad and entree came out at same time. Plates are really large and the table was so crowded. Drinks were great and our server, Amanda was attentive and friendly.
