One of my personal favs! āœØ Sassetta is a beautiful Italian Restaurant is one of my go-to date night spots! The interior is romantic, the service is great, and the food is always delicious! šŸ™ŒšŸ¾ This spot opens at 11am, so itā€™s perfect for a lunch date or an evening in the city! The menu is full of Italian favorites and Iā€™ve yet to try a dish I donā€™t like here! šŸ„‚ I highly recommend the RIGATONI PASTA & the BOLOGNESE PASTA. Both are amazing! šŸ I also recommend asking to sit along the windows. Itā€™s a ground level view, and such a nice vibe while eating ā˜€ļø This a great spot for a date night, girlā€™s night, or to grab a solo drink in the city! šŸø
