We went in anticipation of trying the seared ahi tuna over seafood risotto advertised on Mi Piaci's website. Instead we were given menus with hearty dishes featuring items such as "fall vegetables" and "winter squash", which seemed strange considering we visited in May. Regardless, the drunken pork chop in barolo sauce with winter squash actually was a pleasant surprise. The pasta handkerchief with seafood was kind of a letdown, though - the shrimp was gamey and there was no sea bass to be found underneath the pasta canopy. Still the experience was positive overall, thanks to hands-on service and a tasty reserve Chianti that they sell by the glass.
Pros: friendly service, good wine list by the glass
Cons: winter menu served in May?
