Italian
The name is a tribute to two grandmothers who believed life's best moments happen when everyone squeezes around the dinner table, and the dining room, with its exposed-beam rafters and rosemary focaccia drifting from the open kitchen, takes that mandate seriously. This is a neighborhood restaurant in the warm, come-as-you-are mold, where the menu leans into comfort food handled with care, pasta buried under braised brisket and meatballs being the kind of dish that turns a Tuesday into something.
