Enoteca Vespaio
Once you get past the snooty hostesses, a pleasant meal can be had at Enoteca. Our picks include the antipasti sampler (you choose one dish for $5 or 3 for $12), cozze con patate fritte (moules frites) and the calamari panini. Be preapred, however, as the formo panini is plated as a heaping mound of fried calamri over a baguette sliced open with a shred of lettuce and slice of tomato on the inside. You have to go after it with a fork, obsoleting the sanwich format.
He says: Good wine list, SoCo standby. They only seat full parties.
She says: Avoid the pasta as the flavors are bland, except for too much salt. Go for the haricots verts, soppressata and asiago antipasti for a fulfilling room temperature starter.
