    We have been to Eataly both in Soho and Boston and have eaten at both. We enjoyed being able to Eataly closer to our home. For lunch today we had the Burata con Caponata. The burrata was creamy and deliciious and the caponata was well seasoned and enhanced the burrata experience. We had an order of Ravioli di Zucca. The pasta was sublime, the butter and sage sauce lightly coated the pasta that was tender with a flavorful butternut squash filling. We also order the Baccala (pan-seared cod) over roasted butternut squash. The serving portion was a good size and we perfectly roasted. The accompanying butternut squash was a nice contrast to the code. Our server was lovely and personable and made our dining experience enjoyable. We'll be back.

    Food was very good. We split the appetizer and entree and there was enough for two of us and the house wines are a bargain.The ambiance is the best feature. You can have a conversation in a normal voice, a rarity in restaurants these days.
