Editorial Review for I Coppi – by Daniel Rosenblatt
In Short
Acting as his own architect, co-owner John Brennan designed a rustic space with exposed-brick walls, wood beams, a mural of the Italian countryside and an open kitchen. It's just the sort of homespun spot found in neighborhoods throughout the city. The northern Italian fare follows a simple path, using fresh ingredients and delivering straightforward, balanced flavors. Pasta is a house favorite, as is the creamy polenta served with ground pork and sauteed wild mushrooms.

I just love this place!!! So charming and beautiful decor and the staff was amazing and sweet. The garden area is a great escape, to sit under the trees and lights was just sublime. I had the yummiest specials--polenta and the toast with figs and this terrific carrot and ricotto cheese concoction that was just heaven. It was such a perfect romantic place...good energy and excellent food. I cannot wait to go back!
Pros: A total treasure!!

I've eaten here several times, always in the garden so I can't speak to the indoors experience. But it's an adorable restaurant and you feel that the owners are somehow present (although I can't be sure of this). This place is pretty good. My favorite dish is a whole fish and the pasta is good too. I recommended it to someone I work with who also loved it and recommended it to the rest of her family... The garden's beautiful, the food pretty solid, and the price is right.
