The Scene
Well-heeled locals gather for agent lunches or casual dinners, particularly lively on the early side. Blue-eyed gurus in white turbans rub elbows with society wives and character actors you can almost recognize.
The Food
Don't miss the tender eggplant rolls filled with tangy, meltingly soft goat cheese and sun-dried tomato, or the delicate zucchini soufflé. Mussels and clams in an irresistible tomato garlic broth is a fine old standard, but careful filling up on the crusty Italian bread as you mop it up. Pastas, served al dente, range from simple--rigatoni with eggplant, tomato, basil--to sinful, like linguine with half a lobster and crab meat in ethereal tomato sauce. But the ultimate trattoria comfort food is undoubtedly risotto, offered here in half a dozen imaginative incarnations. Most elegant is a risotto with wild mushrooms and truffle-cheese fondue; most rock-and-roll is the one with black squid ink sauce, calamari, shrimp and scallops.
