Editorial Review

The rustic comfort and sharp chic of this smart hideaway keep company the young and lively crowd of yuppies and singles who chat over café freddos and cappuccinos and leaf through the latest magazines. Italian dishes—gnocchi, spinelli, panini and 14 different pizzas—complement an extensive wine list that includes grappa selections. The tree-shaded patio makes an ideal first-date venue. Mains $7–$13.
