The fresh Tuscan-inspired pasta dishes you get at this small atmospheric Italian restaurant put the Main St competition to shame. Cortona's signature lasagna, which must be reserved ahead, is a menu highlight, as is the signature meatball-and-fettuccini dish. Everything is made to order and can take up to 30 minutes, but it's worth the wait. Reservations required.
It's in a strip mall just south of the Kimball Junction.
