New Dinner Items: Ceasar Salad, Polpette

Caesar Salad  $11
Chicories, Anchovy, Parmesan, Black Pepper
Chicories are a family of bitter greens.  The salad is made with Endive, frisee, romaine, radicchio and romaine hearts.  The salad will be dressed with caesar dressing (Pasteurized egg yolks, grape seed oil, olive oil, lemon, salt, anchovies, black pepper, parmesan), lemon juice, black pepper, parsley, chives and ciabatta croutons.

For our friends with seafood allergies or our vegetarian guests, we do have the option of a “Misticanza alla Romana”, or a bitter green and herb salad like they eat near Rome.  Same greens as the caesar, but with a lemon-thyme vinaigrette.  Please do not special it, but instead keep it in your back pocket for when it’s needed.

Allergies: dairy*, seafood*, egg*, gluten*


Polpette $10
SP Meatballs & Sunday Gravy

The Meatballs: Pork and beef meatballs with garlic, parsley, pecorino, parmesan, and a panada of egg, breadcrumb, and half and half.  Three to an order.
Sunday Gravy:  Inspired by the awesome meat sauce our Italian-American grandmothers made all day on Sunday afternoons.  We take salumi trim (if it comes off the slicer, it’s likely in there) and render it down to add salt and body to the final sauce.  We then toss in onions and garlic, sweat them off, and deglaze with red wine.  Add in milled San Marzano tomatoes and let stew for 2.5 hours.  The meatballs are baked in the sauce.  

Allergies: Allium, Dairy, Egg, Gluten
