Favorites: Dinamo’s spinach fettuccine

Only a few years ago 821 W. Cary housed a staple for VCU students. 821 Cafe has since moved a few doors down and, in its place, we have another dining spot from Ed Vasaio (of Mamma Zu, et al). Dinamo serves up mostly Italian fare like this house-made spinach fettuccine with marinara ($10). All their pasta is house-made, and you can see the pieces of spinach in these noodles. You’ll be grateful for the lingering flavors of the tangy, garlicky sauce as a reminder of a delicious lunch.
