What to order at Sette Bello?

We're going to Sette Bello in Clarendon on Wednesday for my husband's birthday. I'd greatly appreciate any specific recommendations!

Thanks.

    Did you go? What did you eat? And how did you like it? I am curious what you thought. Or just procrastinating studying for a final....

      if they still offer pumpkin raviolis, they are worth ordering

        Pumpkin is wayyyy out of season, so if you're ordering that surely at least the filling isn't fresh.

          I love their risotto with veal. I don't get good risotto out at too many restuarants but this was spectacular and the veal was very tender. It was delightful. Just thinking about it makes me want to go.

            I've eaten there a few times now- this is a great example of a restaurant that's coming through a lot of maturity. It's really grown.

            I like the polpettini (small meatballs). I've had the veal scallopini twice now and once it was a bit tough, but the first time I had it, it was excellent. They do have a very affordable wine list, but stick to the Italians on the list and avoid the new world stuff.
