"Osteria Papavero has been the OG of Old World Italian in Madison for decades. Owner Francesco Mangano has an intense appreciation for seasonality, proportion, and maybe just a hint of whimsy. His fettuccine con ‘nduja with spicy Calabrian chile and pork sausage ragout with tomatoes and corn fettuccine is a standout, and there may be no better date-night spot downtown. If you see a special you like, order it; it could be gone the next day. Online ordering is available, and reservations can be made via Resy." - Kyle Nabilcy
