Teena Mia's menu offers few surprises for a casual Italian restaurant, with the obligatory veal
marsala, fettuccini alfredo and pasta
primavera all making appearances. Try the
eggplant parmigiana, a marvelous version of the usual dish with thinly sliced
eggplant that's breaded (unlike the inferior preparation of dipping in egg then flour). Carrao ensures that you don't leave without a doggy bag by making portions humongous: a slice of pizza is a quarter of a 16-inch pie and all pasta entrees entail a half pound of the Atkins-reviled carb. Before 5 p.m., order at the counter and wait for your food to come to your table; after 5 p.m., cart in a bottle of wine (it's BYOB), sit down and the wait staff will attentively take your order.
