One and done. There are too many great Italian restaurants in the city to bother going back to one which was bleh. The most memorable aspect of the many dishes we had was the lack of flavor

First time checking out Standard Italian as it recently opened. The space is unique in that the tables are not right on top of each other. We had a first-rate waitress in Tiana who was friendly, attentive, but not overbearing. Food wise, the best dishes were the pork meatball appetizer and the lasagna. Honestly the best lasagna we’ve ever had out. And although not a lengthy list, some good wines at absolutely fair prices. Rooting hard for this place and we’ll be back again soon.

Overall very good experience. Food was very good, a bit salty but good. Wait staff was excellent. Noise level not bad. Would like to see some additional protein options for fish and poultry.
