"While this Italian Market spot is known for its sandwiches, they also make one hell of a dinner (and it includes one of our favorite lasagnas in town). Every Friday at 7pm, the old-school Italian spot serves a four-course, family style tasting menu. It's $75, cash only, and changes weekly—think buttery focaccia, beefy sandwiches, crispy arancini, and bucatini with a super savory amatriciana sauce. Come in for a special date night and dig into a marathon of red sauce in a place full of family photos, wax candles, and pasta rollers from the days of 10-cent gas." - alison kessler, candis mclean
