Excellent food and great jazz after my dinner in an adjoining cozy area with a bookstore. Classy.
Brunch was fantastic! It was hard to pick because everything sounded delicious, but we did the burrata and the frittata. Excellent choices. Plus the brunch drink menu was great. Great service and atmosphere; bonus: got 15% off the books I bought for having dined in!
Alfabeto is lovely place to meet friends and eat great food! I had the trout which was absolutely gorgeous! Fresh and prepared simply to enhance the delicate flavor of the fish. My friends had the pasta which they loved. The deserts were specacular! We also loved browsing the bookstore which has an amazing selection. We will be back!
