Tré

For some time, it was fairly hard to find any good Italian food in San Antonio. There was always the local favorite of Paesano's with their Shrimp Paesano and Florio's for great New York style pizza, but when it came to true italian, there was not much to offer. That is until Chef Jason Dady opened Tré Trattoria near the Witte Museum on Broadway. Chef Dady had apparently already opened a few other restaurants in the San Antonio area, but this was his first in the Alamo Heights area and it became an instant hit.

With their phenomenal spicy pizza (soppresetta and pepperocinis), the great bolognese and delectable italian style rib eye with parmesan mashed potatoes, I feel as if I go on a smorgasbord every time I visit Tré. Their all italian wine list, fresh procuitto and pulled mozzarella just add to the genuine italian-ness of this perfect little spot. Although the service can be a little snooty at times, its worth it for the quality of the food.

Dady just opened another location at the quaint Fairmont Hotel downtown (and it has brunch!!) and I cannot wait to give it a try!
