There's much buzz surrounding this polished Italian eatery – largely owing to the heavy-hitting foodies behind it: best-selling cookbook author Stefano Faita and celebrated chef Michele Forgione. Both have deep connections to Italian cooking, obvious in brilliant dishes such as braised beef cheeks with Savoy-style potatoes, Arctic char with cauliflower puree and lentils, and housemade pastas like busiate with lobster.
Try to snag a counter spot facing the open kitchen to watch the masters in action. A four-course tasting menu is available for $65. Reserve ahead.
