Al Crostino

Shop front picture window looks in on the kind of utterly charming Italian place that only exists in daytime television romance. Buttery lemon walls, cathedral ceiling, simple mahogany chairs and smooth tablecloths.  Wine bottles as random framed art-one silent TV plays CNN, the other Tom & Jerry. Youngish, longtime couples trust the waiter's accented recommendations. Specials taste special, always. Outstanding, authentic food made by Italians for Italians. Real Italian bread, angelic cappuccino, brave desserts.
