Ok, one last time!

We love that you all love Neighborhood Night. and we do too.. so let's do this one more month!

November/December is a different beast with holidays etc so we WILL be providing some awesome early week specials... Neighborhood Night adjacent. But we're going to be cooking for you guys, off the cuff, with some really inspired Pan-Abruzzese fare... Sorry, no Parms or spaghettis. BUT. Cmon, let's get behind what Chef Andrew Andrew Michael Wood is putting out... It's seriously amazing stuff!

Neighborhood Night is going strong all October but, look forward to some authentic Italian that you won't find anywhere else on this side of the Appenines in the meantime...

We can't wait to see you all this October. But we're a neighborhood joint, going on 19 years... We got you covered Monday through Sunday no matter what month it is... We'll always make it nice.

Grazie

NEXT THURSDAY(Sept 24th):

We’re proud to newly partner with PA FIRE, a network of 37 grassroots orgs aiding immigrants and the immigrant rights ecosystem across the state. These groups are working together to protect communities, change policy, and create a more welcoming environment for our immigrant neighbors. (Thanks to our friends Carl for the introduction).

Our 4-course family-style menu is $125/pp (including w**e & gratuity) - link in bio for reservations.

Antipasti:
-Zucchini sformato, mozzarella di bufala, piennolo tomatoes

Two Januarys ago, we coaxed photographer to accompany us and .time.becomes.a.loop to Villavallelonga, Abruzzo for the celebratory week of Sant'Antonio and their Panarda. We didn't know just how brilliant an eye Marco had, nor how intelligent his sensibility (and good company as well). His photos became the basis for a feature, and are now in the just-opened in Galatina, Puglia (link in bio).

Marco's photos capture Villavallelonga's unvarnished beauty and its traditions, centered around food as a way of building and sustaining community, as convivial rite, an opportunity to share, and look after our neighbors. His work is astonishing, and the space itself an evocative gallery setting.

We're incredibly proud to call Marco our friend, and to have played a role in this project (you might recognize us at 00:12). The runs until November 8th.

If you don't already know, Tuesdays at the bar with our beloved Carolyn have become quite the hot commodity.
She can make you any cocktail under the sun OR help you pick the perfect w**e for any dish or occasion... Unfortunately, our bar only has 12 seats

We know Tuesdays have been hard to get seats at the bar for our 1/2 off w**e bottle special... So we're extending it to Wednesday as well!!

See you tomorrow, Carolyn's got the perfect bottle for you!

Disclaimer: Tre Rios is not allowed in the building on Wednesdays so there should be no problem grabbing seats 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻

In keeping with 19 years of tradition, we're closed for Labor Day in honor of the workers responsible for whatever greatness America possesses.

Working people - not billionaire Bond villains and grifting, criminal gas bags - built our city and country, sacrificed and continue to give their all for the rights we still cling to, our freedoms now in jeopardy. There's no world worth living in without the humans who do the work. We'd do just fine without robots and tech bros.

Enjoy this day with friends, loved ones, and whatever you've got going. We'll be back at it tomorrow and Wednesday nights for our weekly Neighborhood Night series (spaghetti & meatballs!), and half-price select bottles at the bar every Tuesday night.
