Editorial Review

This second-floor resto-lounge, fresh from a Restaurant Makeover, is the quintessential fusion of old and new (antique chairs fill the second-floor dining area, and a wooden drafting table serves as the host stand). The menu offers a modern smorgasbord, from the wide array of Mediterranean-Italian selections (such as rack of lamb) to smaller tapas (chicken and pork satay, garlic cheese bread, calamari, wings, etc.). Perfect for film festival parties or just sipping one of 12 “gemtinis” on the heated rooftop patio before hitting the town. Mains $12–$32.
