For the quintessential Italian meal with a low key beautiful approach to serving authentic plates go to Fontana. Flawless in vibe and execution of dishes, Fontana is a must if you’re serious about good food and wine. If you’re a solo diner you can feel right at home eating up at the bar. Two words - just go.
