Recently hit up Farina after walking by a dozen times on my way to somewhere else at the end of a long and cold Balloon-fiesta visit.

The staff was great- our waiter helpful and knowledgeable. The antipasti had a number of components beyond the standard spread and caused a small amount of friction as my friend and i battled over the olives. The pizza was excellent- tasty crust, rich sauce, and the toppings well-balanced. The salad was nicely assembled, all veggies and toppings of good quality, and the tangy dressing nearly perfectly balanced. My friend who lives nearby said my experience was reflective of her previous visits to Farina.

• Pros: Very helpful and knowledgeable staff
• Cons: Tables packed in tight
