"Chef Nick Lama’s sophisticated Uptown restaurant, with its gorgeous dining courtyard, pays homage to his Sicilian roots in many artful ways. Avo serves handmade pasta, beautifully composed plates of lasagna rich with short rib ragu, black squid ink mafalda, and bucatini cacio e pepe with jump lump crab. All of the food is special here, but the pasta is beyond dreamy." - Beth D'Addono, Clair Lorell
