Description

Well-conceived Italian food, served in either a chic and cozy dining room or a lovely plant-lined brick courtyard, is the draw at this small neighborhood restaurant, set off the street in a secret garden.

  • 2005 | Best Prix Fixe

    The tasting menu here, which changes frequently, is four courses (two choices per course) priced at a reasonable $35. (Starters on the regular menu run from $5.50 to $10, pastas from $12 to $18, and main courses from $16 to $24.) We have happy memories of a feast that began with our pick of two salads (fresh asparagus on a bed of mâche or a "Caesar" made with Gorgonzola), followed by oysters or house-made sausage-stuffed pasta, then arctic char on a bed of lentils and shiitakes or...

    Take the Cannoli

    By Greg Hugunin | Wed, January 09, 2002

    The funny thing about Italian restaurants is that I don't always look forward to reviewing them. It's not that I haven't found plenty of good ones; it's just that I've also found some exceedingly sloppy places, where the pasta is mushy, the risott... More »
