"Chi Spacca is one of three restaurants anchoring the Mozza mini-mall at Melrose and Highland. While the Pizzeria and Osteria are more popular, low-profile Chi Spacca is the best of the bunch. Located in a small red dining room, eating at this Italian steakhouse is like attending a dinner party inside a famous novelist’s wine cellar where one bottle of wine leads to three, and suddenly you’re staring at salumi platters, bone marrow pie, and steak the size of a hubcap. If you’re in the market for a meaty, throwdown meal, few places fit the bill better than Chi Spacca. " - brant cox
