Sfizio is a cozy restaurant located in a space that was once Noodle Theory. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for a casual or nice date. The menu changes daily, but some items like spaghetti and meatballs and salad options are always available. The food at Sfizio is highly praised, with the quality and care clearly evident in each dish. The spaghetti and meatballs are praised as divine, and the seafood pasta is rich and flavorful. The hand-made noodles add a special touch, and the trumpet mushroom tagliatelle is popular and perfectly seasoned. The charred broccoli is fresh and tasty, while the white miso cacio e Pepe can be a bit salty for some.
The restaurant is known for its excellent service, with attentive staff who work together to tend to guests. However, ordering at the counter can sometimes be confusing, as it's unclear who to ask questions to. Seating is a bit cramped, making it challenging to have private conversations, and the small indoor space can be loud, especially when busy. Outdoor seating is available for those who prefer a quieter experience.
Prices are reasonable considering the quality of the food and portions. Desserts like pannacotta with pistachio brittle and a float of olive oil are highly recommended. Despite the small size and sometimes noisy environment, Sfizio offers top-quality dishes that keep customers eager to return, even waiting in line for a chance to dine here.
