I know it seems odd that we went to any Italian restaurant other than Cunnetto's on The Hill, but Cunnetto's is going through some problems and we decided to do a little looking.
We've been to Charlie Gitto's in the past and always found it fine. I think that's what we still think.
The interior and the service are superior to Cunnetto's. It is lovely inside Charlie Gitto's. The staff is knowledgeable and very inviting. Our waiter even talked Mike into an expensive bottle of wine.
We ate the most traditional foods/desserts that I didn't even take photos because you can see them in your head.
Cocktails, Toasted Ravioli, Bottle of Orin Swift's "Abstract" wine, lasagna, spaghetti and meatballs, cannoli, chocolate cake.
The wine had a very fun label. It is a massive collage of old photos (Old commercials, Elvis, Marilyn, etc.) It was fun to look at.
The food was good, but not as good as Cunnetto's.
We are torn. We love Cunnetto's and don't want it to close, but it is becoming a dump inside and the food has been cold or not good the last few times we've been there. It is a conundrum.
