Diners can dip handmade parmesan breadsticks into the spinach-and-artichoke melt appetizer, then peruse pasta entrees that feature such housemade sauces as lemon pesto over shrimp and scallops. Creative gourmet pies model their toppings after pop-culture characters—including the Winnie the Pooh, which dapples a honey-mustard base with provolone, cheddar, peppers, bacon, and chicken. See the full menu.
La Pizzeria
Tucked behind Leinkauf Elementary School, La Pizzeria has been lauded by Press-Register food editor David Holloway as "one of the best-kept secrets" in town. He praises owner Todd Henson's balance between Italian classics—pastas with housemade sauces and calzones among them—and creative menu contributions. A list of character-inspired gourmet pizzas includes the garlic-infused Bela Lugosi and the Sherlock Holmes, a mystery order whose toppings are chosen by the chef and cooked beneath a carefully aimed magnifying glass. Strewn with white tablecloths and still-life paintings, the low-lit interior features one private table, where Henson wagers "we've had a hundred proposals of marriage … over the years."
