Hungry for something that is bound to be utterly satisfying? Make a beeline for this Palo Alto charmer, as it knows how to make one feel coddled without having to hand over your wallet. 
The menu here is concise and well-edited, but there are some winning dishes. Start things off right with the salumi and cheese extravaganza before moving on to carpaccio, burrata, or tonno crudo to further whet your appetite. Then pierce your fork into such true-blue creations as the crisp-fried crochette di patate, highlighting mashed potatoes, peas and Grana Padano, set atop a minty pea purée; as well as tonnarelli alle vongole, complete with that beautiful briny essence. Daily specials are worth a gander, as is dessert, especially if it's the silky cannoli.
