Vespaio is a warm and inviting Italian restaurant located in the hustle and bustle of South Congress. I had heard great reviews of the food so I had no choice but to check it out. I sampled two dishes - the Raviloini Di Vitella (Raviolini filled with veal & pecorino romano in grappa tomato butter with ricotta salata, basil oil & basil fritte) and Bistecca Tagliatta Con Patate Fritte (Oak fire grilled Niman Ranch hanger steak with a veal ridurre with patate fritte, sautéed baby spinach & a parmesan roasted tomato). I enjoyed both dishes, and I look forward to coming back to try more.
The ravioli was some of the best I have ever had. The texture of the pasta and the filling was perfectly balanced. The sauce made with grappa tomato butter and basil oil was fantastic. I licked the plate. Can I have that sauce in a soup bowl? It's mostly butter you say? Awesome. Can't go wrong with butter soup.
The hanger steak had a smokey flavor, and eating the fries brought me joy. The tomato was perfectly roasted with a crispy and bubbly layer of cheese. I'll be back for more. |
