brought my wife here for a surprise special occasion (found out she was pregnant). first time, but definitely not the last. the food will change your life! best part was that we got in the same night we found out (used tablexchange.com -- heard babbo sells out immediately but must have gotten lucky)!

I had been wanting to try this place for over a year before I finally went and it lived up to every expectation. All the dishes were amazing, but the Goat Cheese Tortelloni really stood out for me; it was amazingly refreshing and light for a pasta dish. The place is tiny, so be sure to book a reservation way in advance, but it's an excellent spot to impress a date.
