Description
The menu features Northern Italian recipes adapted by chefs, offering everything from grilled octopus and burgers to crispy, oven-roasted focaccia. Specialty dishes like the Tartufo Nero pizza are sometimes prepared right in front of diners. The dining room balances a mellow, white-tablecloth setting with brick walls and large windows, making it a popular spot for a post-Central Park meal.
