This place is run at a high-level with the goal of always ensuring the diners enjoys their dining experience. Shortly after placing our order, we were informed that the kitchen had no more of the lamb dish to sell. However, a few minutes later, the manager came by and let us know that the kitchen was willing to prepare and cook one for us (probably from the stock allotted for the following day). A+ customer service, and the food never disappoints.

Spuntino Wine Bar & Italian Tapas offers the unique opportunity to share several dishes with everyone at your table. They will keep the tab open so you can add items as you go. They feature many unique choices including a separate Truffle menu. I recommend this restaurant to couples or families.
