A warmly lit Italian trattoria on 4th Avenue that locals return to again and again for its handmade pasta, wood-fired pizza, and convivial atmosphere. The tagliatelle al ragù and tiramisu are benchmarks, and the Italian wine list is well-priced. The room is small and tables are close together, so it's not ideal for private conversations.
