Having read the review of Bianca in the New York Times Restaurant review section, I thought we should give it a try. I like small restaurants and Bianca certainly fits the bill for small. There is hardly enough room to manuever to your table. The noise level is deafening. Not the place to go for a quite, romantic dinner or if you plan to have a conversation without having to yell. We opted for a salad and several appetizers. The mozzarella and tomato salad with strips of basil and olive oil was good. It's hard to mess something like that up. The tomato tart with eggplant was okay although mushy. The fried artichokes were not edible. Quite a let-down.
