we just came from Pizzicotto, we had the flank steak and porchini rizzotto. It was the absolute worst italian food we've ever had. We've had better food on an airplane, we've had decent (not wonderful) experiences there before but after tonight we will never go back! we paid $70 for crappy italian, should have ordered Domino's pizza that would have been better :(

We go there often with the bf's dad, and generally like it a lot. I've usually loved the gnocchi and just about everything else, although we were there just the other week and both the bf and and I were fairly indifferent about what we had: I ordered the pasta malloredus (sp?) and found it just okay, nothing better than what we could make at home. He ordered a special pasta, something with goat cheese and sausage, and said that the flavors never really came together. His dad had a pizza with chicken and goat cheese, which was very good. The wine specials are usually quite good. Do make a reservation and make sure you request the upstairs room, otherwise you get stuck in the cramped and loud space downstairs. The upstairs space is also small, but much less hectic and noisy.

re: LAmonkeygirl
I agree that upstairs is better than downstairs, but in either space, do not expect a lot of peace/quiet or elbow room. When the waiters are feeling generous, they are most accomodating. I once asked what they could whip up pasta-wise with asparagus (it was heart of asparagus season last year) and they cooked up a great pasta dish just for me.
Although I haven't been in a while, they used to have Murphy Goode Fume Blanc by the glass which was a nice light glass to accompany some of the less assertive pastas.
