Started out strong with some table side bread which was great and quickly moved onto the Ceasar Salad. It had avocado in it which I thought was a bit unique but, added a really nice creaminess to the salad. Plus there was a great deal of cheese so this was a super solid ceasar. Bonus points because they served our Diet Coke out of a small glass bottle with a cup and lemon on the side, like a little wine carafe.
As for the pasta, I would say it was good. Defiantly not the best pasta I've had in the city, nor the worst. I'd say it fell somewhere in the middle. The Rigatoni alla Vodka was solid, not spicy and had a good amount of sauce to pasta ratio. I am all for an al dente pasta however, I felt like it was 30 seconds to a minute under al dente and gave a little bit too firm of a bite for me. I heard the table next to us say the same as well. As for the Bucatini alla Carbonara, the pasta itself was delicious. I love love love bucatini and it tasted fresh. It tasted like they used Guanciale (which is my preference) however, the peices were really big which made for a super fatty bite which I did not love. All around it was a good dinner, just some minor qualms
The service was fabulous and our waitress was super kind. The door let in ALOT of cold air every time it opened so maybe they could add like a curtain or something to combat that. It's also pretty annoying that they only allow reservations 24 hours in advance. Definitely makes it hard to plan. Not sure what the reasoning behind this is, maybe to keep it feeling elite? Unsure. Super cute interior, def a great girls night spot and the food was pretty good
