| Since chef and owner Fabio Viviani participated in season five of Bravo’s Top Chef, this beautiful restaurant has been high-profile. Viviani, a charming, young guy from Florence, didn’t even need to win the title (he did make it to the semi-finals) to win America’s heart. It’s hard to go wrong with any of the food on his menu, and his partner, mixologist Jacopo Falleni, keeps the cocktails interesting. Try the fluffy gnocchi in a creamy pesto sauce to wake up your taste buds. The luna pizza is half margherita pizza and half calzone---a neat idea. We recommend the tomahawk steak---a 38-ounce dry-aged rib-eye still on its long rib, seared and drizzled with olive oil---that looks like something Fred Flintstone would enjoy. For dessert, go with the cannoli with its just-sweet-enough ricotta filling and toasted pistachios. Sit in the bar area up front, the main dining room, the patio out back or the adjoining wine room. |
