Bonu' Taverna Italiana

Modern Italian with strong pinsa, good cocktails, and a room that gets loud when everyone shows up.

The review

Our take

Bonu is one of the easier Italian yeses for us. Caesar first, then the pinsa with stracciatella, rich enough to make everyone at the table start negotiating bites. Cocktails were good. Service was better than it needed to be for a packed room. The downside is the room itself. It gets cramped, then it gets loud, then everybody starts talking even louder to hear each other. Still, the food keeps the night upright. We would order the pinsa again without blinking.

What stood out

The pinsa with stracciatella. Rich, soft, and gone before the table was ready.
