The Scene
A lively pre-theater crowd bustles in Dinotto's two small dining rooms, where decor is simple (warm golden walls, hardwood floors) and tables are packed tight. A charming little bar beckons with a few stools in the front room; a spacious, enclosed front patio offers primo Piper's Alley people-watching.

The Food
The simple, classic Italian fare includes pizzas, calzones, 15 pasta dishes and a handful of chicken and veal specials. Meaty grilled portobello mushroom is fragrant with white wine, herbs and cheese, while Gorgonzola and 10-year-old balsamic vinaigrette give the signature salad a nice tang. Standout pastas include a basic, perfect farfalle pasta with grilled chicken, sun-dried tomatoes and mushrooms in a light garlic sauce, and crispy risotto with plump tiger shrimp, pesto and a healthy sprinkling of Parmesan cheese.
