"With grandparents and parents from Italy, I grew up with typical "red sauce" Italian. Eggplant, lasagna, ravioli, like Olive Garden only authentic, tasty and not loaded with salt and fat. Please don't eat here if that is what you expect and all that you like. First, the staff. Our French is non existent, and this is a locals place. The chef came out to do his best to explain the menu, and between his English vocabulary and our minimal French and Italian, everything was explained. They made us feel very welcome and made a real effort to communicate (Not a universal experience this trip. And yes, I should know French, but have forgotten it. Apoatently I needed room in my head for song lyrics of the 1980s) Anyway, we ordered two apps: eggplant parmigiana and asparagus with Parma ham. The eggplant was deconstructed. There were rolls of baked eggplant slices, mounds of pureed eggplant, and clouds of mozzarella foam, with fried basil and a piece of crispy parmesan cheese all sitting in a thin layer of tomato sauce. Certainly not what I am used to but life is about new experiences. It was amazing. Even my eggplant - loathing husband liked it. A lot. The flavor of the eggplant really came through. It was just delicious. His asparagus was fresh and tasty and without the presence of the eggplant would probably have sent me to asparagus nirvana (I love veggies), but the eggplant had my full attention. He liked it a lot though. For mains the hubs had ravioli and I had lasagna. We had lasagna a lot growing up and my feeling about it is - meh. This lasagna changed all that. First the pasta was the most delicately thin layers of fresh pasta I have ever seen. The layers included a beautiful sauce with large pieces of well cooked pork and beef. The cheese was a delicate burrata not a stringy mozzarella. And the whole dish was finished with rocket (arugala) and toasted pine nuts. Exquisite. The hubs ravioli were bite sized delicate clouds of pork and other stuff that tasted heavenly. No gummy or chewy pasta, but the same thin sheets, with an excellent tomato sauce that complimented the ravioli without overwhelming it. Finally we shared a panna cotta for dessert. I hate panna cotta, it makes me think of milk Jello. I opted for it because everything else had been astounding, so what the heck? This was no milk Jello. It was silky and delicious with an excellent raspberry sauce. So we could complain that this Italian restaurant was nothing like the ones in Italy, or like my Nona's, as some people have. Instead we elected to embrace the differences and enjoy a fine, reasonably priced meal that we will never forget. And kudos to the staff for making such an effort to make us feel welcome."

This is a very nice restaurant, surprisingly. Not touristic at all which is not very easy to find in this neighborhood.The whole atmosphere is relaxed, crowd quite young, staff very friendly and the food is delicious and modern.Don't come here if you're looking for a pizza or regular pasta.Menu changes regularly so we're definitely coming back.

We booked online for for two people at this Italian restaurant that has a recommendation in the Michelin Guide. The menu offers a good variety of pastas with a few meat dishes, and the wine list is full of Italian varietals at reasonable prices. A few good wines are available by the glass. I had an entree of veal carpaccio which was excellent - thin slices of veal dressed with olive oil and lemon juice, with s scattering of chopped black olives and pine nuts; it was tasty, light and fresh. My wife had the zucchini spaghetti (spirals of zucchini) with tomato sauce and mozzarella which was also very good - this was a cold dish and the tomato sauce was perfectly balanced with tangy tomato and a...

On January 31st, I went to Augusto to have lunch, all by my self. First of all, although being small, the restaurant was absolutely not crowded, so there was no reason for me to be installed in a table directly in front of the bathroom's door. My unique view for that meal was the bathroom's door. Everybody else was behind me. When I realized that, I have tried to call the waiter, more than tree times, in order to ask him for another table. Since absolutely nobody came, I moved myself to another table. That's when this waiter said in a very quick french that I was starting to bother him (Vous êtes en train de me gener, là). The problem is that I speak fluent french, since I have lived and stu...

"My wife and I dined here on a Saturday night (having made a reservation several days in advance), and it was one of the best dining experiences we have had in France in a long time. We reserved for the early seating, showed up on time, and were among the first customers there.We had a small table near the door. The disadvantage is that we were occasionally wafted by a cold draft from the front door. The bigger advantage was that we were sitting near the restaurant's beautiful, precision, hand-operated meat slicer. The specialty starter is beef that has been cured for seven months with seven spices. It is sliced paper thin (and that is no exaggeration) and served heaped on a plate. Heavenly. My wife and I ordered only one of these plates and it was more than ample for the two of us.That was followed by our starters. I ordered the minestrone marocain légèrement épicé comme à Tanger (Moroccan minestrone, lightly spiced as in Tangiers), and my wife the rillettes de crabe aux petits légumes et Granny Smith (shredded crab with little vegetables and pieces of Granny Smith apple). Both were delicious.For our main dishes I had a pavé de cerf (deer steak), which was ample and perfectly cooked. My wife had fish, also cooked to perfection. I don't recall the wine we ordered, but the choice was from wines that were at their peak (not just wines one or two years old), yet the prices were reasonable.One remark about the decore: it manages to be a bit traditional and modern at the same time, with reproductions of paintings by Modigliani and various early 20th-century (mainly French) artists adorning the wall.Overall, a restaurant worth going out of your way for."
