Porchetta

Overall, this is one of our favorite places for date night. Make a reservation because it is very popular. If you just have 2 people, ask for the Chef's table which is basically a seat at the bar right next to the kitchen. It is a great experience as the chef will often bring you your food and describe it to you. If you have more than 2 people ask for a table by the window because most of the other tables are too close together and feel crowded.
