As
reported last month, the new

Pizza Volante's, but perhaps in time this resto will find its groove.

| Spartico's star items are the wood-fired, Roman-style pizzas, like this Margherita with San Marzano tomatoes and fresh local basil and Fior di Latte mozzarella. |

| The topping list includes proscuitto di parma (for a whopping $4 extra) and other unusual choices, including Grana Padano cheese, speck, chorizo, and marinated olives. |

| This warm bittersweet chocolate bomb wasn't served warm, nor was it "the bomb," but it did have a liquid center, as promised. |

| The cannoli was quite a bargain at $3.95. |
