    The 202 Bistro is now Arca. The food is as exquisite as ever. The new restaurant is one of the most gorgeous places in the area. As any new restaurant, there are SMALL issues with timing but the food is phenomenal! Everyone is always looking forward to making you happy. Arca is a jewel in this area not to be missed!! Service is spot on and especially responsive.

    Time to update my review from 7 years ago. The restaurant is still one of our favorites. Its actually becoming very popular and busy. So much so they are moving a few buildings down to a much larger and remodeled location. We are definitely looking foward to it. Unfortunately, they did change suppliers for the ravioli. They are still very good but not as good as the previous. My new favorite is the Zuppa Di Pesce. The picture is worth a thousand words.

    Best mussels marinara around. Calamari is always fresh and tender, and marinara sauce is perfect compliment. The red sauce on the chicken parm is spot on too. All in all, great Italian-inspired place in the area.
