"Executive chef Nico Pena took the reins from chef and owner Melissa Perello in 2023, putting his touch on the restaurant’s already-strong reputation for elegant, seasonal cooking that refrains from being overly fussy. On the menu, look for an abundance of vegetables, oodles of fresh pasta, and delicate desserts. There’s also an option for a $110 tasting menu that includes a couple of options for appetizers and entrees. Don’t skip the housemade bread." - Lauren Saria
