Even though this restaurant is named after a town in the region of Emilia-Romagna, the focus inside the wood-fired ovens is definitely Neapolitan. Award-winning Birmingham chef James Lewis creates not only delicious pies, but his kitchen makes its own pasta daily. For instance, the spaghetti with lamb sausage, mint, local heirloom tomatoes and parsley is novel, yet simple and the Brown Butter Poached Lobster Risotto is extraordinary. The interior is modern with sleek bars, tables and floors, and since it is located across the way from the Market at Pepper Place, it is a nice spot to visit after shopping.
