Our table was ready, been here a few times. Need more vegetarian pasta options. Had the duck special which was very good. Nice cocktail list. Apple crostata was average. Had a cozy date night dinner in a neighborhood gem.

This was the first time we’d been to Alessandro’s since it was redone. Not for lack of interest; just a tough reservation to get! But it sure was worth the effort. The pace looks great, the service was as good as always and the food was better than I remembered. Best artichoke salad and chicken scarparella! Already can’t wait to go back. Bonus, Alessandro is the lost wonderful host. Always makes it a point to come say hi.

Excellent food! Great service as well! Portions can be bigger though. Also, the ambience would be such a better experience with white or checkered table cloths. It was very loud and the fine dining side would be nice if separated with a curtain between the quick service and fine dining area. Overall, good experience. Would definitely return on a more consistent basis if the fine dining side adds more of a cozy restaurant feel
