"SPQR took its name from the Roman empire, but the pasta is far from classic. It was originally an offshoot of A16, but wine director Shelley Lindgren stepped out in 2019, leaving chef-owner Matt Accarrino to run the show. Now, the strength of the prix-fixe menu lies just as much in the excellent secondi like king salmon and wagyu with foie gras sauce as in the expertly prepared pasta, including veal-filled pyramidi and buckwheat rapini with bacon and rapini." - Lauren Saria, Dianne de Guzman, Eater Staff
