Description

Seasonal menus feature hearty meat and fish dishes from the wood-burning stove and rotisserie. Homemade pastas -- don't miss the gnocchi with brown butter and sage when it's available -- are followed by tantalizing veals, lamb, duck, or sea bass. Some trademarks, like the ravioli of Maine lobster, sell out early, but you'll just have to try the wild nettle fettuccine instead.
