Claudio Pirollo grew up in Belgium where he soon discovered his passion for cooking as he wandered around his father’s fine Italian épicerie (grocery store) and watched his mother prepare dinner every day. The dual influence of Italy and Belgium triggered Chef Pirollo’s aspirations to develop his knowledge and experience with different flavors.
A Trattoria is not a pizzeria, it is an Italian-style eating establishment that is generally much less formal than a ristorante but more formal than an osteria. It is similar to what the French call Bistrot.
Trattorias are traditionally family owned, casual, rustic neighborhood restaurants found throughout all of Italy that offer fresh, regional, local and family specialties on the menu.

    I promised I'd return for the short rib before it came off the menu and I'm delighted I did. It was as delicious as it looked on a neighbor's table during our last visit to C's T. Two of my dining companions had the branzino (always a winner) and the other had a terrific (as it always is) pizza. So happy to have become semi-regulars at C's T - we have thoroughly enjoyed our visits - most recently on a busy Saturday night, another time on a busy Thursday night and a busy Tuesday night.

    We had an amazing dinner this past Sunday. A bottle of Nebbiolo to open the night, an appetizer, the Antipasta Platter (special for the day), and dinner. Two of us had the special, Calamarata Pasta (clams, mussels, prawns), the other dinner was the Cavatelli with Sausage and Rapini. The dessert was the Olive Oil Cake, delicious! The service was excellent, food was served hot, and the place was packed! Quite the gem of a restaurant. We're looking forward to our next visit.

    Our first visit to Claudio's. We will definitely return. Drinks and appetizers were really good. The arugula salad is simple, but elegant. As was the prosciutto. Even the breadsticks were special. The cacio pepe, a classic preparation. We ordered a Margherita pizza. Perfect crust and delicious cheese. Dessert was an affogato and the ricotta donuts were divine. The service was friendly and prompt. I can understand why this is a neighborhood gem. We are glad we discovered it on Open Table for a last minute reservation.
