Went to Cucina Picarelli recently, had a great experience there, the food was excellent and the wine pairings were up to par...and the atmosphere is like a local eatery you would find in Italy-perfect for a first date. We started out with the Caprese and the Mint Shrimp- light and fresh. I had the Veal Picatta (my litmust test for... more

Good Italian food. Good wine. Cozey inside and covered porch outside. Very small parking lot, friendly owner (he also hangs out just about every morning at the local Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf and chats with everyone there, too!). more

This place puts CPK and Olive Garden to shame. Nothing beats their pizza and penne arrabiata. more

I have eaten here twice and both times had delicious meals. I had the veal parmigano and stuffed peppers, both excellent. It's a very small restaurant which adds to its charm, but parking can be a little tight. They also have a small wine bar, which is cozy. Good value for the money and a very nice place to go... more

On Christmas Eve, my mother, sister and I decided to dine out. We'd seen this cute little place since it opened in June 2004 and gave it a whirl. Overall, it was very good. I had Penne Arrabiata ("angry penne"), a spicy tomato sauce with calamari. It was delicious. My sister had the fettucine Alfredo with artichokes and broccoli, and... more
