La Spezia Restaurant and Wine Bar

September 20, 2016 3:13 PM

The concept of affordable yet gourmet Italian food is what La Spezia Restaurant and Bar is all about. The restaurant bosts an elegant yet homey environment, solid Italian food and reasonable prices. A wine cellar holds more than 600 bottles and 1920’s jazz plays over the stereo system. The walls are adorned with black-and-white family photographs that were taken near Via Spezia, or Spice Road, which is in Rome near the home of the co-owner, Elizabeth Foley's family.

Wine flights make it possible to sample three types of white wine ($13), red wine ($12) or Italian wine ($12). A cheese plate ($15) includes sweet house-pickled mustard seeds, crostini, fresh fruit and three Italian cheeses. There’s also a plate of three Italian cured meats ($15) and antipasti ($18 for two) includes all the cheeses and meats plus olives, eggplant caponata and artichokes.
