Description
On Madison Avenue, this local standby pairs a straightforward menu with a personal touch, where the owner frequently makes the rounds to check on guests. If you sit at an outdoor table, the entertainment is pure street-watching. The kitchen turns out reliable staples, from a creamy mushroom risotto and heat-kissed scaloppine piccata to hearty pork chops. While the decor could use a little refresh, the draw is the unpretentious, flavor-focused execution that keeps regulars returning multiple times a week.
