Bar Posta Description:
Launched by brothers Marco and Gianni Betti of Florence, Italy, and Atlanta, Posta sees the latter sibling acting as exec chef, turning out food that is true to its Tuscan roots. (The traditional Tuscan fennel salami, finocchiona, of Marco's Atlanta establishment, Antica Posta, is also found on the menu here.) Thin-crust pizzas with simple toppings make a most attractive lunch or light supper; the margherita is classic, with buffalo milk mozzarella, fresh basil and rich ripe tomato sauce. Pastas may be ordered in appetizer size portions; we like the snap of the fresh peas in the gemelli all Fiorentina, a dish that combines prosciutto and fresh cream. Main dishes are meat-centric: filet mignon, Prime beef rib-eye steak. For dessert, the panna cotta is nicely set under a napping of berry sauce---an Italian classic. The wine list is, as one might expect, heavily Italian, with an emphasis on the Super Tuscan category; some notable California labels also are among the offerings. Staying for breakfast? We recommend the uova al pomodoro, a pair of lovely sunny side up eggs atop warm tomato sauce. Great eye-opener with the good, strong coffee.
