Mouth Watering Posto 22

Andrea RodgersStaff Writer

Iona’s new addition to the off-campus meal plan, Posto 22, is an extremely popular restaurant among the student body. A great place to wine & dine for dates, dinners, and especially Valentine’s Day. Their restaurant is gorgeous and gives off an intimate feel, whether you’re with family, friends, or significant others. Besides their scenery, the food is amazing and cooked to perfection. The menu varies from thin-crust pizza and pasta, to hot sandwiches like Panini’s. Once seated, fresh warm bread is put on the table and served with olive oil. The bread has to be the best part because it is so dense and doughy- dipping it into olive oil prepares your palette for what’s to come next. A popular iced tea that is served at Posto 22, is the unsweetened Pomegranate Berry Iced Tea, brewed fresh daily, and served in a jar, just enough to get you through your whole meal. If you’re a pasta lover, then this next dish might make your mouth water. The Rigatoni, served with ground sausage, escarole, cherry tomatoes, olive oil, and garlic, is phenomenal. It is hot when served, and sets off your tastes buds once you take a bite. The ground sausage gives it a little kick, while the cherry tomatoes and escarole balances the spice of the sausage, making it hard for you not to take another bite. No worries if you can’t finish your meal, generous portions are given here which means you can always indulge at home!The service is excellent, starting with a welcoming host and ending with a friendly and efficient waiter.
