American. You might not be aware your head is moving to the beat. It greets you from the second you arrive and never wavers. You would swear you are dining at a club, one that serves dish after righteous dish. I began discovering my bliss through their lamb sausage pizza. Far from a typical topping and in concert with maitake mushrooms, ricotta and oregano, the harmony is undeniable. There’s also no disputing the rigatoni and octopus (kalamata olives, tomato, calabrian chili). It’s another combination that’s way off the charts. Just don’t make your exit pre-dessert. If you find yourself bopping twice as emphatically, it’s likely the apple crisp you have to thank. Where better to live this than the chandelier dotted destination known as NOMO Kitchen? Consider that rhetorical and dance yourself over some time soon.
