I typically don't finish everything on my plate, but I was so impressed with Adiamo In Banca that I awarded them with my first ever Clean Plate award. This restaurant set a new standard for me with their delicious food, excellent service, and inviting atmosphere. The price per person is between $20 to $30. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for top-notch dining experience.

It doesn 't look like much from the outside (well, it looks like a bank), but this restaurant has a lot to offer. It was easy to make a reservation online for dinner on a Sunday evening, but unnecessary as the place was pretty empty when we arrived. The setting was elegant with draping curtains along the windows and clean white tablecloths in the spacious dining area, as well as a small bar with a TV at the corner and a private dining room inside the vault room in the back of the restaurant. Service was prompt and professional... of course we were one of the few people there, so I 'd expect nothing less. Still, I appreciate their effort into making sure we had everything we needed during our visit. Only one problem. There were too many delectable items to choose from on the menu, both food and drinks! We ended up getting the Diavola pizza (spicy sausage and mushroom) which was about 12 inches in diameter, Brussel Sprouts with Pancetta, a super tasty appetizer, some of the best I 've ever had, and the Arugula Salad, a large serving filled with fresh and delicious greens and cherry tomatoes. That pizza was amazing, every single ingredient, generous toppings and cheese, and fyi, the spicy sausage was not spicy at all... but that didn 't take away from how delightful and perfect the pizza was. For drinks, we tried The Linden, Lemon Drop, Last Word, and Rye Rye, and each of the cocktails were full of flavor and strong in alcohol, it 's hard to pick a fave. Great experience overall.

Made reservations for a weekday business lunch through OpenTable. Check in was easy and table was ready when we arrived. Food 5/5 We had ordered the bruschetta and calamari appetizers to share and both were great. Everyone loved both apps. 5/5 for both Complimentary bread with olive oil and vinegar was also served. For entree, I ordered the pappardelle bolognese. The pasta was very good but I thought that the sauce was a bit too thin and didn't cling to the noodles like I liked. The sauce had a lot of fresh tomato chunks but not much meat. 4/5 I'd try the penne with tomato cream sauce (vodka sauce) or the rigatoni alla carcerata as my coworkers gave those high ratings. All the dishes were served piping hot with table side se of Parmesan cheese when requested. For dessert, I tried both the tiramisu and panna cotta. The tiramisu had great flavor and wasn't very heavy. The panna cotta had good tartness from the mango and strawberry flavors. 5/5 for both Servers were friendly and attentive. I'm planning to return soon to try other dishes and recommend this for anyone in the SSF area looking for good Italian food or a piping hot bowl of pasta/noodles.
