Viro's

STAFF PICK: "When the moon hits your knee / Like a big salami / That's amore." Straight-from-Italy salami, cappacolla, mortadella and other good sandwich stuffings are just some of the things you'll find at Viro's, an Italian café so authentic in every detail that it wouldn't be the least bit out of place in Genoa or Rome--no surprise, given that the owners are straight from the old country and bring that fine Italian sensibility for food well prepared and well presented to the table. The espresso alone is worth a visit to Viro's, located in the new Joesler Village shopping center at River just west of Campbell. But have a fiorentino or a biscottini while you're there, too, and you'll know that you have stepped through a portal of heaven.
