In Short – Sweet-tooth diners and those down with a different experience head here for after-dinner sweets and piping-hot coffees and espressos at this dessert café with an Italian accent. The name means "glutton" in the old country's tongue, but those watching waistlines can always share and enjoy.

my favorite place around....
by cypherbandit
I stumbled here by accident one night (after a great meal at Salt and Pepper nearby). I never liked chocolate at all until now, 6 months pregnant, I find that I have developed a sweet tooth. My husband and I walked in, and were immediately welcomed and treated like family. The friendly, young Italian owner is definitely his shop's best asset! He had an incredible array of Italian truffles and chocolate pieces (he explained each in detail), as well as cakes and baked goods, an espresso machine, and Capogiro Gelato! I love that it's BYOB (though i'll have to wait till after baby), and it's a perfect place for a romantic date or to hang with friends over drinks and chocolate...It's so rare to have an intimate experience like that these days. I'm definitely heading back more often than I should!
- Pros: awesome location, friendly service, unbeatable desserts!
- Cons: closed on mondays...
