CAN YOU eat one of the best meals in Bowling Green while sitting in your car? Yes, you can \u2014 that\u2019s if you pay a visit to Danny\u2019s Pasta Co & Focacciaria on College Street, housed in a tiny cinder block building. When I say \u201ctiny,\u201d I mean \u201csardine can\u201d tiny. Danny\u2019s has a few tables outdoors, but this amazing pasta deserves more than being eaten in a parking lot. If this restaurant ever expanded into a larger dining space that served wine, it could be in the top running for the best restaurant in Bowling Green. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Danny\u2019s has a very cute, small grocery area where you can buy items like Italian sodas, imported olive oils and tomato pastes, coffee, spices, and Alessi breadsticks. A refrigerator case is stocked with homemade pizza dough, pasta sauces, and burrata. The restaurant counter houses delicious homemade focaccia pizzas, where you can get everything from a Margherita to whatever specialty combination the staff dreams up that day. The pepperoni was the perfect combination of chewy yet airy, with a robust tomato sauce covered in some spicy pepperoni. The sausage and jalapeno was another standout. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can create your own pasta by picking which pasta, protein, vegetables, or sauces you want to be added or choose from the house favorites. We picked the Bucatini Cacio e Pepe, which is one of the simplest Italian dishes but also one of the easiest for a restaurant to mess up. That was not the case with this traditional Roman pasta, which was perfectly creamy and flavored with salty Parmigiano and bourbon pepper. The Orecchiette Merguez is a dish I\u2019m still thinking about, consisting of mushrooms, garlic, sausage, tomato paste, and tongue-scorching harissa \u2014 all cooled down with splotches of creamy goat cheese. It\u2019s fantastic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Danny\u2019s is one of the best places to eat in Bowling Green, and I hope it expands into a traditional dining space. Food this excellent really deserves to.
