text: Lawrenceville finally has a nice date restaurant! The space is roomy- no sitting on top of the next table here. The lighting was suitably dim, but not too dark to read a menu. Overall, very cozy atmosphere. The service was impeccable- we never felt hovered over, but our waters stayed full and every need was anticipated. As for the food, \nthere was not a bad bite on a plate. The bread was delicious, served with a side of fresh ricotta and olive oil. For appetizers, we ordered the artichokes and calamari. The artichokes were so tender and creamy. The calamari, fresh and in a phenomenal sauce with capers and olives. For entrees, we had the mushroom gnocchi in truffle oil and artichoke rigatoni. Both were savory and large servings- we had plenty to take home.  I almost hope that no one reads this review- the service and food was so good that I want to keep it to myself.
