This is one of my FAVORITE places to eat.
AMBIANCE
The inside is a little small but there is plenty of seating. There are two booths when you first walk in on the left and two others on the right near the window. The FULL bar is also on the right hand side and there is enough space for a crowd to be there on a Friday night. In the middle there are two more booths. One sided booth/chairs [you know where the girl always picks the booth and sticks the guy with the chair] along the left hand side. It really is a nice set up and they have plenty of fans and dim lighting. They also have some tables outside so if its a nice day you don't have to be inside.
FOOD
There truffle oil is really good. I always get the meat lovers pizza which comes with Italian sausage [I believe two types, one sweet] and pepperoni. Its a great combination. Ive tried other types of pizza, they are all good. The meatball is great and the Salsiccia Dolce as well.
DRINKS
The bar has pretty much anything you ask for as far as alcoholic drinks. If you're getting a regular soda ask for a can because the one that comes out of the spray [the thing at the bar] it will be flat.
SERVICE
Good service; they are attentive enough but don't pester you.
Stumbled upon this place while walking back to my hotel. It has a rustic vibe and there are some tables in the front that provide for prime people watching. The servers were very attentive and gave many recommendations on food options. There were specials as well and it made my decision that much more difficult!
I chose a salad and the short rib rigatoni – would highly recommend. The pasta was cooked perfectly and tasted authentic. There is nothing worse than eating Italian and tasting the packaged pasta. I also opted for a glass of red, can't remember what it was, it wasn't very memorable but I suppose it did the job. I would suggest a better wine selection for such amazing Italian food.
Next time I will try the pizzas and the desserts – FOR SURE!
My boyfriend and I stopped in for dinner and had a great experience at Brado. I ordered a glass of cotes du rhone and rigatoni with mushrooms as my entree, and my boyfriend ordered their chicken & mushroom carbonara dish. Both of us really enjoyed our meals; I found the portions to be well sized, considering it was too much food for me but enough for my boyfriend. For dessert, we took a chance on their bread pudding (it's always a chance!), and it was really delicious – order it a la mode!
I never bookmarked this place but never had to as what they offer is memorable. Pizza is typically the best answer. And after much nachos and popcorn at the movies when we were still hungry, thin crust pizza seemed like an excellent choice.
Service and wine are outstanding. We were greeted and seated right away. Our waitress was quick to give me samples of wine, a full cup practically, and offer suggestions as to her favorites as well. Their wine list focuses on those of Italian origin and I got to sample (and fall in love with) two new favorites. I like my wines dry, earthy, and zesty. These wines are carefully selected and do not disappoint.
We ordered the classica and the pesce. The classica is your typical mozzarella, tomatos, and basil. When it came, I have to say I was a little let down. The crust is thinner than I'm used to. And the tomatoes are diced, not the slices of whole ones I was expecting as well. And instead of actual fresh basil leaves, they were shredded. It all come together in an underwhelming way.
I'm glad we had the pesce pizza as well. By the time I sampled my boyfriend's, I had grown accustomed to this unusually thin crust. It breaks clean and snaps when you bit into it. And when this thin pizza is topped with cheese, substantial chunks of salmon, capers, and arugula, it becomes quite the satisfying meal all on its own. Their pesce pizza is delicious. We gobbled it up and got another one to go.
I'd love to go back and sample other pizzas on the menu. And with such welcoming service and great wines, I'll be back soon.
