"Paladar is a convivial neighborhood favorite for refined Italian specialties and delicate fresh pasta, but its concise menu of outstanding wood-fired pizza might be the main draw. Share pies topped with mascarpone and wild arugula over spicy red sauce; lamb sausage with roasted pepper, pine nut, and tzatziki; roasted mushroom with leek and fontina; or the favorite of many, the farm egg pizza with applewood smoked bacon, braised collard greens, and gruyere. You’ll want the squid ink spaghetti with Calabrian chili butter and plump pieces of shrimp all to yourself, however." - Clair Lorell
