The restaurant at Barchetta offers a lovely alternative to the loud, tightly packed trattorias commonly found in the area. The surroundings are comfortable, the tables spacious, and the service very attentive. You'll find a wide array of local meat, fish, and vegetable dishes and an extensive wine list featuring the best of the Lombardia region.
Burrata appetizer was authentic and decadent. Served with fresh basil, tapenade, and a unique tomato-bread cassoulet.
Primi first course of Gnocchi verde. Wonderfully laced with tomato cream. Delicate yet full flavored.
We decided to share our first courses and the kitchen was kind enough to split and plate them separately prior to service. This was a nice touch not found at most restaurants.
Secondi Entree of Perch filets served of silky risotto was outstanding.
Entree Bronzino (sea bass) was delicate, moist, and delicious. Served with local broiled tomatoes and potatoes.
Wine from Lombardia and Campania was amazing.
We had no room for dessert, but the brought a small cookie plate out anyway. Much appreciated. Our service was amazing and complimented the intimate ambiance for and outstanding dining experience.
