Bravo Italiano Caffè 42

We were in the area for a gallery opening when we noticed the shop and walked in to find the owner and another couple in a tasting of fine olive oils and aged Balsamic vinegars. We were invited right in and enjoyed the owner's expertise on everything in the tasting. I left with a bag full of the best Italian products, just delicious oils, vinegars, pasta (both dried and frozen), pestos of different flavors, and more. Since we live about 30 minutes away (luckily), we are driving over, today, to restock! SO worth your regular visits!

Never in my life would have tried olive oil or balsamic oil tastings, pistachio or honey spreads, or pesto sauces tasting.

Thank you Steve for the experience and for sharing the bold flavors of Italy!

Must stop in and visit if you’re in the area. I left with so much knowledge and feeling more inspired to cook than ever before.

My friends and I wandered in here a couple weeks ago and were so pleased with the service! Steve is warm and friendly and made our day with fresh coffee and an exquisite olive oil and vinaigrette tasting. Everything was delicious! The shop offers a great variety of goods and the homemade pesto in particular was incredible! I brought some home and have loved it. We were so happy to stop in and certainly will be back again.

What a delightful gem! From the welcoming demeanor of Steve, to the vast amount of hospitality and knowledge, I am awestruck that I stumbled across this perfect Italian market on Eureka Street. I loved my cappuccino, the samples of pesto, olive oils, and balsamic vinegars. What an adventure!
