True speakeasy style bar (located inside another bar/rest) You must TEXT the number on their website about a week in advance to make a reservation! REALLY COOL though! And you can always try day/night of or a day before - on weekends typically you won't have much luck with that though.

My personal favorite Italian in Little Italy, though Bencotto gets honorable mention. If you're looking for a romantic date spot the back patio is the best. Also a great brunch spot with a DIY bloody mary bar!
