Out the gates, Liberty Station seemed pretty generic and not local. Now it’s popping with some of the best local food operators in town. To wit, the new Officine Buona Forchetta, the second location from South Park’s Neapolitan pizza stars. Owner Matteo Cattaneo partnered with executive chef Mario Cassineri (BiCE) to go beyond pizza. It’ll still have two world-class pizza ovens, one exclusively for gluten-free pies.
But Officine boasts more pastas, antipasti, and salads, and a full bar with wines, craft beer, and Italian cocktails. The centerpiece of the warehouse-y space is a Fiat (yes, the car) transformed into a table for two. And most of the seating is alfresco, with two patios in front and one for the kiddos out back with a playground.
