I grew up in New Jersey, home to some of the best "real" Italian food in the country, including the cooking of my own Italian mother. Visconti is the closest I can find to it here in Northern California. Low-key atmosphere and great, fresh food (without all the attitude of the fancy Italian joints and none of the contrived, circus-like atmosphere of the chain Italian eateries) makes it the only place I'll eat Italian.
