Ciccio - Review - Yountville - Yountville - The Infatuation

"Ciccio ticks all the boxes for hug-you-from-the-inside-out Italian comfort food. It’s arguably the best place in Yountville’s 1.5-mile stretch for fresh pasta, wood-fired pizzas, and pillowy soft ricotta made daily, and where we go for date night in their delightfully homey dining room that was originally an Italian grocery store. The meatball stuffed chard should be mandatory, and you’ll want to add the focaccia to get every last bite of the thick, chili-infused red sauce. Anything you have will pair well with house cocktails like an Italian G&T or a glass of Sangiovese. If you have room, the vanilla bean gelato drizzled with wild pine nut oil will make you question everything you know about the humble pine nut." - Jasmine Alexandra
