A true harvest of the sea, our Pesce Al Cartoccio features Alaskan halibut steamed in parchment with fregola, zucchini, gold cherry tomatoes, and a deeply flavorful saffron sofrito. Brightened with lemon juice and fresh herbs, it’s delicate, vibrant, and wonderfully seasonal.

Beautifully expressive, the Barberani 2019 “Calcaia” is a wine from Orvieto in Umbria, and often called Italy’s answer to Sauternes. With noble rot enriching the sugars and adding flavor to the grapes, the wine takes on a concentrated sweetness and honeyed complexity that pairs beautifully with our piatti di formaggi. For the full experience, ask Sean Perez for his expert cheese recommendations.

Some days call for water. Some days call for a spritz.

When the inbox is full, the to-do list is growing, and you're wondering how it's only Tuesday, we recommend an Italian solution: find a sunny seat, order a spritz, and let the rest wait a few minutes.

We'll have one ready for you.
