Where - New Haven

oppps i may have already answered my own question.

any input regarding Nini's??

Nini's

Spent a good bunch of time in New Haven. Can't say I found any great restaurants but the Pizza at Pepe's (Reviews). On Wooster Street.

Try the Pepperoni - I found it to be the best.

Just bring cash, they do not take plastic

Nini's food is really good and downright reasonable for what you get. It gets pretty loud in there though on weekend nights and the seating is very cozy by even NYC standards.

Stemware is pretty non-descript - depending upon what you brought, you'd need to consider bringing your own.

If you don't necessarily want to bring your own wine, Ibiza gets rave reviews.

thanks aes. i'm probably taking the train up there so i doubt i'll drag my stemware along, i'll just have to suffer that one.

le petite cafe has also come highly recommended..

Go to http://www.ctnow.com there is a section on dining by location with reviews. Sorry that I can't make any recommendation, I live in the Hartford area and don't get down to New Haven.

Le Petit Cafe is on my "have to get there" list, but everyone I know who has been there has said it's great.

aes, we decided on LPC. the food was great. i don't care for the 6 & 8:30 only seating, but i guess that is part of their "draw"? there is also no need to plaster the front window AND the restrooms with every (good) review of the place, as their reputation is already known. fine food and great price($42.50 prix fixe). wine list sucks tho.
still i'd highly recommend it.

Thanks tbird - I actually didn't know about the 6/8:30 seating thing (that's how Nini's is too) but glad to hear it was good food.

i'll will try and hit Nini's this time(this weekend).
