Novelist Xochitl Gonzalez’s Grub Street Diet
"A longtime neighborhood Italian on DeKalb Avenue that feels like a warm public dining room — casual, flexible, and social; you often arrive as two and leave as a larger group. The bar is a regular hangout (with crostini and excellent martinis), the classic chicken parm is a go-to (and chicken Milanese is also referenced), and desserts like a chocolate torte are shared family-style. Staffive familiarity (manager Eva is mentioned) contributes to its welcoming vibe." - Emma Alpern, Lindsay Mound
