"Pulling off vegan Italian food is exceptionally tricky; so many dishes lean on a snowy pile of cheese, a binding egg yolk, or luscious rendered pork fat. That’s what makes this tiny Italian restaurant on Southeast Madison so special — all of its pizzas, handmade pastas, meatballs, and risotto are animal product-free. Skip the pizzas in favor of the restaurant’s pastas, which range from rounded orecchiette cradling puddles of sun-dried tomato pesto to carbonara with smoky vegan bacon. For dessert, a mind-boggling panna cotta is the move." - Eater Staff
