Tesoro is a cozy 18-seat restaurant specializing in Italian cuisine with influences from other cultures. The menu features a variety of appetizers, small plates, and pasta dishes, with options for vegetarians. Diners appreciate the delicious pasta and fresh ingredients, although some wish for more variety and inventive options. Notable dishes include focaccia, rigatoni Cacio, spicy sausage casarecce, spaghetti with Zucchini, pork cutlet, asparagus toast, and gnocchi with ramps pesto. The focaccia is particularly praised for its nice crisp and peppery flavor. The open kitchen concept is a highlight, and the ambiance is intimate and friendly. There is a good selection of desserts, with items like the chocolate tart with cherries receiving positive feedback. Some customers find the parking challenging and recommend using the parking deck at the Hampton. Although the service is excellent, the lack of cocktails and seafood options has been noted as a downside. Overall, Tesoro offers a wonderful dining experience and is eager to welcome diners back for another taste of their fresh pasta dishes.
