From its marble entrance to starched tablecloths, this is a polished and professional culinary operation. The eponymous restaurant pays attention to the details; and everything from the bread and pasta offerings, to the dessert items is made in house—that chocolate-sage cannoli has been known to command a loyal following. In the kitchen, things are well-orchestrated—beginning with an earthy beef broth amuse bouche to the fresh and elegantly plated mignardises. These cooks know how to tweak Italian classics with just enough verve, unveiling such mains as wild boar ragù over cinnamon-spiked fettuccine. Following suit, the pistachio-stuffed rabbit earns top marks for flavor. The wine list has big names, so get a glass of Dom for a bit of fun and festivity.
