Modern artwork adorns this Tuscan grill, where one may enjoy a three-course meal, a variety of appetizers, or tapas-style dishes off the bar bites menu. We suggest the caramelized gnocchi with prosciutto di Parma, pear, Gorgonzola and truffle oil. Entrée standouts include osso buco served over creamy polenta; and house-made egg fettuccine carbonara. Grilled Wagyu sirloin pairs with artichoke ravioli and red wine sauce. For dessert, get the lemon semifreddo composed with fresh limoncello or chocolate hazelnut cake with hazelnut gelato and vanilla cream. Finish with a caffe corretto, “corrected” with a shot of grappa. A wall of wine highlights the 125-label wine list that combines value and high-end selections. On the value side, we recommend the Masciarelli Montepulciano d’ Abruzzo, served Tuscan style in a stemless bicchiere. For a splurge, the Ornellaia Masseto, a Super Tuscan, goes for $500. In between are plenty of good choices under $50 a bottle.
