WHAT ARE YOU TAKING ABOUT

by theonethatcan

Great restaurant! Don't let those reviews discourage you from trying one of the best italian places to eat and enjoy atmosfere. Some people that go to restaurants just have an attitude and complain about everything sit down and enjoy the delicious meal.(but note you should do something about the servers flirting with the hostesses

  • Pros: food, space, wines
  • Cons: , busboys and cell phon

The Details on Scopa

When to Go:

Happy hour is 4pm to 7pm weekdays--after-work crowds are lured by the promise of pop music, half-price drinks, bar and dinner menus, and all-around good fun.

What to Drink:

The Italian- and California-centric wine list--some 50 strong--is organized by price, not grape or region. The restaurant likes to serve its reds at room temperature; order early and get yours pre-chilled in the refrigerator for fifteen minutes.
