Toscana Ristorante

Toscana Ristorante is a tiny jewel tucked in a small alley. The chef owner proud of its authentic Italian cuisine and selection of ingredients. We went here for a late lunch on a Saturday afternoon, it was not crowded and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. The waitress was friendly and helpful, inside there is a simple mainly Italian national flag of red, white, green, three main colors, the walls covered with the owner of the award-winning records and information shows that people feel their professional level; semi open kitchen, so guests can enjoy the professional chef through the cooking process, but does not interfere with guests. 
We stopped in thinking we were hungry, but ended up having one of the best meals. Therefore it's more expensive than Cafe Grazie or Skylark, but it's well worth the price if you enjoy fine hand crafted food and great simple ambiance.
Warm bread serve with fresh chopped tomato with herb
Caprese salad very refreshing!
Mixed salad a combination of ceasar salad, caprese, king mushroom and smoked salmon.
Soup of the day is the cream pumpkin soup
Beef steak with sauteed vegetables and layered of bake potato, the meat is tender and less fat.
Spicy chicken spaghetti in tomato sauce
Seafood spaghetti in tomato sauce a kind of homey feeling that I'm using the same ingredients for my pescatora.
Mushroom ravioli in mushroom creamy sauce
Custard pudding
Coffee or tea

So if you want to have a combination of Italian food, friendliness, good service, cozy and intimate atmosphere, then a visit to Toscana Ristorante is a must.
