Chef owner Duilio Valenti prepares northern Italian cuisine as guest watch through the impeccably clean open kitchen. Freshness is what it's all about here, as the minimal refrigeration space requires daily preparations and trips to the markets. Chef Valenti makes extensive use of local and Italian products, and even grows several of his own herbs, vegetables and fruits. "I cook and eat here every day" says Chef Valenti, "so I only want the best and most wholesome".The wine list is crafted around the cuisine and features small production Northern Italian and California wines some of which you'll be thrilled to discover. On any given day at least 20 wines are offered by the glass and on-tap from $6 and up.
