Italian, Contemporary
This traditional Italian restaurant nestled inside the historic Hotel des Artistes is cherished for its well-executed favorites. Retaining that X factor from its previous incarnation as Café des Artistes, it is also a vault for everyone from artists to corporate bigwigs. Unsurprisingly, a sense of grandiosity exudes from its myriad frescos, oddly configured series of rooms, and striking restrooms. The cooking covers Italy's various regions and may unveil deeply flavorful grilled calamari with Sicilian-style eggplant caponata; or a beautiful nest of perfectly dressed fettucine with sweet, porky guanciale and artichoke hearts purée. End with a dish of mixed season fruit, citrus jus and glazed Borgogno vermouth. Live jazz brunch on the weekends is a hit.
