Fresh Homemade Pasta + Luxurious Sauces = Delicious Decadence.\n\nI have driven past this restaurant hundreds of times on my way to Trader Joe's and thought it was just a deli. Boy, was I wrong! Who knew that behind those unsuspecting doors were a full service restaurant, in addition to a counter deli and mini market?!\n\nMy husband and I had lunch with some out of town guests...and Chef Marc and crew did not disappoint. \n\nI ordered the Spinach Manicotti- this is a winning dish. The homemade pasta enveloped around spinach topped with mozzarella, blanketed with a perfect pink basil sauce was perfection. \n\nMy husband ordered the Parpadelle Bolognese and shared it with our toddler daughter, and both of them practically licked their plates clean. My husband also ordered a side a hot sausage which was absolutely delicious. \n\nMy cousin originally wanted the lasagna, but they had run out, so our waitress recommended the Baked Pasta Fazoletti which was like a deconstructed lasagna. This was my favorite dish of the day and one I will order all to myself next time. \n\nMy cousin's husband could not decide on the many delicious sandwiches so he ordered 2 half sandwiches and was very pleased with both. \n\nThe service was OK. It wasn't the warmest, but they were attentive and our iced tea glasses were never empty- and that is what counts. Besides, the food alone is worthy of the 5 stars and I can't wait to be back to try the dinner menu. So glad that we ventured in because it is now added to our list of faves!
