Drawing a fashionable international crowd and assorted locals, this unassuming little house in the Montrose can rarely accommodate walk-ins. The draw? Expertly prepared pasta, like the earthy, rich wonder that is the ravioli with ricotta, slivers of truffle, and soft egg. Though also good, a recent special of crab-stuffed ravioli with sweet peppers, arugula, and pancetta could have been filled with anything—the pork overpowered the delicate seafood. No quibble with another special: organic heirloom tomatoes, romaine, salami, and La Tur cheese made a perfect marriage of creamy, tangy, herbal, and juicy. (8/13)
