There's a reason you keep hearing about the anneloni with spicy lamb sausage. Listen.

The menu changes regularly but go for their signature salted cod dish if you can. Also, #summerofrose is an excellent way to try some dry, Italian Rose wines.

Standout dishes: octopus braised in a rich, spicy (almost briny) tomato sauce, anelloni w a hearty lamb ragu and mustard greens, and silky short rib lasagna. Chicken liver pate was excellent too.

Try the green-bean salad. Crisp stalks of green beans, fried almonds, raw fennel and celery heart join forces in this crunchy, satisfying tangle. It’s one of our #100best dishes and drinks of 2011.

Toothsome anelloni rings are tossed in a generous jumble of wilted mustard greens and house-made spicy lamb sausage, while a soothing mac and cheese features cannolicchi curls gooey. -TimeOut
