patrenella’s was always a good choice for decently priced italian in the neighborhood, but it has been elevated to quite a new level since chef ryan took over the kitchen. try the nightly specials. just reading the specials board will make your mouth water. on my last 2 visits, i had the rack of lamb over a parmesan polenta and the seabass over mushroom risotto. unbelieveable! btw, they are closed sunday and mondays.
