"Rita Sodi’s original restaurant moved around the corner not long ago, and the new premises is as hard to get into as the old. The menu represents the classic three-course progression of the perfect Tuscan meal, beginning with a plate of charcuterie and cheese, progressing to a fresh pasta course, and then a secondo, which might be Sodi’s famous herb-laced porchetta. The trick to getting into this compact place is lining up before the restaurant opens at 4:30 p.m. and claiming a walk-in table or seat at the bar." - Robert Sietsema
