I had a late night dinner at Tosca at around midnight. They open late - their kitchen is open until 1am, and they close at 2am every day. My first time here - didn’t get a chance to check the nearly 100 year old bar out before it changed owners and became the restaurant/bar it is now.
I had the spaghetti and meatballs ($19), which were on the specials list that night, garlic focaccia ($6), and a side of swiss chard ($10). The spaghetti was very good, al dente with a nicely seasoned tomato sauce that had a good amount of olive oil in it. It came with two meatballs, which were delicious, very tender and meaty. I do wish there were a little more spaghetti though. There was an excess of sauce left over, and I was glad to have the garlic focaccia to mop it up. The garlic focaccia were actually more like garlic knots. They had crispy tops and a warm soft interior, very good. The side of chard was nicely sautéed and had some olives and onions.
Also had the Tosca house “cappuccino” for dessert, which is made with armagnac, bourbon, chocolate ganache and milk ($12). If you actually want coffee in your “cappuccino” you can add espresso for an extra $4. A nice, warming, chocolatey boozy cocktail.
