With its seamless blend of indoor and outdoor spaces, this is a shining beacon amid high-rises, restaurants and stores. Donning that requisite brick walls and farmhouse vibe, the former warehouse feels glam yet spartan—with a stainless-steel kitchen, chrome accents and an impressive glass-encased wine cellar. Such a feel-good sense extends to the staff, who clearly like working here as much as diners enjoy lingering over meals.Chef/owner Nicholas Stefanelli's Puglian heritage comes through in the menu. His dishes hit all the right notes, balancing playful with serious elements, as in the turbot with mazza frissa and brown butter-poached artichoke hearts or creamy risotto packed with parmesan, butter and fermented black truffle oil. Lemon souffle with lemon verbena gelato is a strong finish.
