The Best Italian Restaurants in New Orleans | Eater New Orleans
"This modern Italian on Julia Street is equal parts homage to the beauty of Italian actress Sophia Loren and her favorite cuisine. Eschewing Creole Italian preparation for regional Italian dishes, chef Talia Diele offers pasta dishes like cacio e pepe with pink peppercorns, a spicy arrabbiata over tagliatelle with local gulf shrimp, thin crust pizza and a daily fish prepared with lemon and capers. The housemade zeppole with ricotta are one option for a sweet ending." - Beth D’Addono
