Italian

(From March 2011) As if the fresh house-made pasta dishes weren’t enough (cannelloni al forno, agnolotti dal plin), new menu items and the return of chef Cosimo Battaglia’s famous six-hour osso buco make this trendy Italian restaurant the place to be on chilly evenings. And the warm wood floors, white tablecloths, and fresh flowers only enhance the beautifully plated food. We loved the gnocchi topped with mari-nara and finished off in the oven, a nice twist on the classic. Bar.

Italian

  

(From January 2012)

On the last Sunday of every month, chef Giuliana Leardini partners up with Italian imports, a local wine distributor, and creates a special menu. When we visited, the bill fare included two apt pairings, the first a smooth chianti with melt-in-your-mouth ricotta-stuffed manicotti, the second fresh peaches with not-too-sweet moscato. Act fast, though. Reservations are required, and they go fast. Beer & wine.
