Capri usually has a Ossobuco that is worth talking about, but that is about it. Though I would agree that the food scene here has changed, the Maggianos, Olive Gardens still are busy. Plus, I talk to people all the time about food and Ambrosia, Mama Carrolla’s, and Amalfi are still amongst a lot of people’s favorite restaurants in Indy. I actually like the pasta at Pizzology quite a bit, it is about as good as we have here in Indy. The second picture here looks awesome.wibiahttp://www.wouldibuyitagain.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7700721558717637465.post-88262189902921114952011-09-22T16:44:02.165-04:002011-09-22T16:44:02.165-04:00Anon, I have heard many many people discuss Tavola...Anon, I have heard many many people discuss Tavola di Tosa. And while I would have loved to try it, it closed before I moved here which was over 5 years ago. And I like to think that Indy's food scene has grown since then. Not to mention, I think the location probably didn't help Tavola.<br /><br />thanks for commenting.Erin in Indyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06236924407558284371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7700721558717637465.post-15201588603637430722011-09-21T21:26:45.859-04:002011-09-21T21:26:45.859-04:00Indy did have a similar place.

It went out of business for lack of sufficient business. <br /><br />There simply weren't (and probably still aren't) enough people in Indy who thought the food served at that place was what they wanted nor what they were willing to pay for.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7700721558717637465.post-35921036074448478902011-09-20T08:15:39.519-04:002011-09-20T08:15:39.519-04:00Giuseppe (haha), yes, you are lucky to have Boca s...Giuseppe (haha), yes, you are lucky to have Boca so close. If I lived that close, I would have tried everything on the menu by now I think. I haven't been to St. Louis in years. I am sure there are some gems there though.Erin in Indyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06236924407558284371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7700721558717637465.post-9569053081553028302011-09-19T10:05:22.877-04:002011-09-19T10:05:22.877-04:00Erin, glad you liked it and as much as I also &quo...Erin, glad you liked it and as much as I also "bitch" about the lack of Italian in the Midwest, you've hit it. Boca is excellent and not "sauce happy". <br /><br />Cincinnati is getting better Italian wise. I still like Via Vite downtown and can't wait to try Enoteca Emilia on Madison Road in the O'Byronville section of Cincinnati's "East Side".<br /><br />Also, anyone tried one of the myriad Zagat rated 22 and above Italians in St. Louis? Some seem promising. <br /><br />Thanks Erin for reminding me that I do have a jewel so close (20 minutes).Giuseppe in Montgomery OHnoreply@blogger.com
