Rustic homemade bread, ethereally light gnocchi, veal cheeks enlivened with gremolata, and indulgent chocolate-filled crespele are just a few of the lures this BYOB dangles. Even better, the dishes can be sampled either in a $32 four-course menu or à la carte. The kitchen is occasionally careless and the service often clueless, but when everything is clicking, it’s irresistible.

I have been to Modo Mio several times, and everytime I go there is always something new on the menu-that's what keeps me coming back. Everytime I have been back, I try to take someone new, so they can share the experience. The price is right on target too. I think that overall the place is great!

Been there twice and found it quite authentico. Food is way way above average. Prices are very fair....it's good value and the BYOB is the only way to go. It's cash only, which I think keeps prices down.... it's been packed with people both times I went there.

Review
Both pasta dishes and the sausage stuffed steak were so salty that they were not edible. The server admitted that the chef was going overboard with the salt. This was on a Saturday night. On our previous visit on a Thursday, everything was great, especially the pasta and roasted pork. We felt bad for the other 2 couples with us Saturday night for the lousy meal.
