Master Critic Review
Munno
8.4
A laid-back room with serious execution—Roman-leaning pizzas plus house-made pastas that keep it from being a one-trick pizzeria. It’s strongest when you split one oblong pizza and add one pasta, letting the kitchen show range without over-ordering.
Must-Try Dishes:
Diavola-style pizza, Mezze maniche alla carbonara, Squid ink spaghetti with clams

Logistics & Planning
Parking: Metered street parking on Clark Street and nearby side streets; can be tight after 6:30pm, plan a few extra minutes.
Dress code: Smart casual—jeans are fine, but many guests lean slightly dressy for dinner dates.
Noise level: Moderate; lively during peak hours but still workable for conversation.
Weekend wait: 30–60 minutes without a reservation during peak Friday–Saturday hours.
Weekday lunch: Typically no wait or very short wait.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes—multiple vegetable-forward pizzas and pasta options.
Vegan options: Limited—can be done with modifications, but not a dedicated vegan menu.
Gluten-free options: Limited—gluten-free crust or pasta may be available, but cross-contamination precautions are not the focus.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes—it's relaxed but polished, with shareable food that naturally creates an easy rhythm without feeling stiff or overly loud.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Sometimes on weeknights or early evenings, but weekend dinners are safer with a reservation if you want to avoid a wait.
Is it kid-friendly? Generally yes for older kids who enjoy pizza and pasta, though the room skews more date-night than family-centric during dinner hours.
Best For
Better for: Balanced pizza-and-pasta nights where you want chef-level execution without formal fine-dining energy.
Skip if: You want a quick slice-only stop or a very quiet, intimate dining room—this place is meant to feel lively.
