The entrance flies a bit under the radar (hint: look for the "S" on the door), but once inside owner Stella Spanu's Italian gem, nothing is held back. The place is utterly stunning, with an ambience that calls to mind a sultry speakeasy. The menu impresses with a selection of dishes that draw upon regional Italian cuisine. Plates like a Milan-inspired ossobuco-filled ravioli with saffron glaze and crispy gremolata, or a green asparagus risotto with horseradish cream and langoustine, show the kitchen’s creativity. To finish, a caramel budino flavored with amaro Montenegro and topped with whipped cream displays a similar spirit of invention.
