PaCrì Review

An adorable young husband-and-wife team (she is the chef) serve delicious, huge portions of house-made pasta, wood-oven pizza (at lunch only), and authentic Italian main courses, including chicken Milanese, on a breezy open terrace right near Saline Beach. The menu—handwritten on a chalkboard—changes daily. Don't miss the softball-size hunk of the best artisanal mozzarella you've ever had, flown in from Italy and garnished with prosciutto or tomato and basil. The eggplant Parmesan appetizer is delicious and more than enough for a meal. Like the pastas, the bread and the desserts are made in-house, and Torta al ciocolato di Cristina (Cristina's chocolate cake) is only one of the winners. Gorgeous waitstaff of both sexes add to the general air of voluptuousness.

    Both the menu and the entire staff at PaCri are authentic Italian, so it comes as quite a shock to go from saying "merci" to "grazzi". The big item here is the burrata appetizer - a huge ball of mozzarella (soft on the inside) that is served with tomatoes. Fodor's recommends the pizza, but there was none on the menu the night I ate there. The pasta is very good but very expensive. The dinning room is an open-air garden, but don't worry about the smell from the salt flats - it doesn't reach the restaurant.
