| Angelo Livi and Benito Mellino's Italian restaurant epitomizes the word "classic." This Phoenix stalwart, with its black-and-white décor, looks as endearingly traditional as its cuisine tastes. To wit: escargots de Bourgogne, the authentic Caesar salad, fresh-made pasta like fettuccine in a wild mushroom sauce topped with fresh arugula, osso buco Milanese and crème caramel flan. |
