    Caruso's Grocery at Pike & Rose is consistently excellent. It's hard to find really good Italian food in the area, so we were thrilled to discover them. The calamari is some of the best we've had, and we've really enjoyed the pasta dishes and entrees that we've tried over several visits. Highly recommend!

    Julii is a real gem! The interior is wonderful with much natural lighting. The music was mostly jazz and very relaxing. Not too loud. I started with the Alsacian tartine. The portion was generous and the cheese and fruit (apple?) went well together. Delicious. For my entree, I ordered the lamb tajine and it was delicious with many layers of flavor: apricots, couscous, pine nuts, goat cheese, succulent lamb. The portion was generous and I had to bring some of it home. Our server, Grace, was wonderful. She checked on us at least a couple of times. Service was fast and courteous. I’ll be back to try more of the items on the menu! Overall, my experience was very positive.
