Wonderful, friendly staff. Great food. Feels like home!
Just happened to stumble into this wonderful restaurant on a rainy holiday Sunday evening and couldn't have had a better experience. Our reservation at Original Joe's was getting bumped out 30-45 minutes so we bailed. Lucky us. It was too loud to even talk at Original Joe's. We'll be returning to Trattoria Contradina in the future. Dietary restrictions: They did have some gluten-free options. Yea.
The restaurant is very nice. Looks like they have concern their local charm. Italian food is delicious. Basically everything is very typical Italian cuisine. All the pastas are delicious and very delicious cheese dishes. I want to try many dishes and everything was delicious. There were some room for improvement when it came to the gnocchis. I know this is a very complicated dish and it takes a lot of time in my case they were a little bit undercooked, but the flavors were there and I have to say it was delicious. If they would’ve left it a a bit longer, that dish would’ve been perfection. Recommend you share this dish with the green wine the offer wine from Napa, California, Italy enjoying your dish with a great wine offer You know the place is very cozy. Delicious. We had a great time here I went with my friends and the food was very good. Even the very typically Italian you will have a great time and I’m pretty sure you will enjoy the food.
Excellent in every way. It's our favorite Italian in the city and we've tried all the new and fancy restaurants. Great food, great drinks (the bartender is the best), great service. It's a cozy, classic atmosphere (great for dates, dinner with out of town friends, catch ups) that feels local to the neighborhood. My favorites are the Vongole and the Carlesimo. We finish with the tiramisu for dessert.
Love this place!!! Friends from Texas
