Polpetta was started in 2008 by Roberto Leo and Ivano Franceschi. Polpetta offers no fuss, good quality, value-for-money Italian comfort food. Large woven pendants are contrasted against a black ceiling giving a warm and welcoming glow to the space, touches of Italy such as the green tiles around the bar counter and the patterned floor centerpiece tie into the Italian comfort food served.
The staff is well-mannered and attentive. Polpetta offers an exciting menu of Italian delicacies and other toothsome preparations. Wood-fired ovens churn out piquant pizzas with zesty sauces, vegetables, and meat chunks. Equally delicious is its pasta served in an array of dressings.
Lush lamb cutlets, carpaccio, home-style meatballs with fiery Napoletana sauce, and veal limone are other popular dishes at Polpetta. A wisely chosen wine list complements the inviting fare. Polpetta also proffers decadent traditional desserts that are sure to appease one’s sweet tooth.
