Description
This Upper East Side spot has the unhurried feel of a neighborhood secret. The hospitality here is distinctly hands-on: owner Lou routinely greets tables, occasionally offers a drink during a wait, and has even had the kitchen whip up custom off-menu dishes for picky younger diners. The kitchen focuses on comforting classics like chicken Milanese, truffle pasta, and chocolate lava cake. Open daily, it transitions smoothly from lunch and weekend brunch to late-night cocktails, preserving a relaxed, personal touch.
