"Al Di LA makes some of our favorite Italian food in all of New York, and even though everything is served in to-go containers right now, dishes like their tagliatelle bolognese, squid ink pasta with octopus confit, and corn tortelli are still worth traveling for. If you want your food outdoors this summer, you can do it at one of their seat-yourself patio tables. Keep this spot top of mind when the next time your past craving hits hard and check their Instagram for limited specials like their homemade ice cream." - nikko duren
