"Chef Accursio Lota, who is opening a new restaurant in the UTC area, greets every guest at his Sicilian trattoria as if they’re long-lost relatives. The warm, homey restaurant in North Park showcases dishes like wagyu beef carpaccio, squid-ink ditalini (arguably the cutest of all the pasta shapes), and the 18-hour-braised beef cheek. End with a Sicilian granita or tiramisu." - Helen I. Hwang, Eater Staff
