Da Pasquale Restaurant Review:
With more than 20 years under its belt, this charming family-run trattoria has cultivated many repeat clientele. The double-storefront dining room, crowded with tables topped with white linen and butcher paper, is accented with rustic arches and warm tones. It may be difficult to resist, but try not to fill up on the bread --- soft, puffy disks of pizza dough baked in the wood-burning oven. Signor Pasquale hails from Naples and his crispy, thin-crusted pies are among the menu's highlights. His wife, executive chef Anna Morra, features fresh ingredients in dishes like the marinated vegetables, a Neapolitan specialty. More than a dozen pasta preparations are offered, including homemade gnocchi with tomato sauce, smoked mozzarella and basil. Mains include osso buco and chicken breast with lemon and capers. For lunch, we like the panini filled with marinated chicken and arugula; or turkey breast, goat cheese, avocado and peppers. Desserts include panna cotta and chocolate cake. Prices are reasonable, and if you live within a two-mile radius, delivery is free.
