Il Buco

Editorial Review

If Fellini raided Antiques Roadshow. Candles and kerosene, upscale olive oils, ever-changing menu of Mediterranean delectables. So romantic you might get lucky before dessert (bonus: bathrooms are big enough for two!). Delicious enough you may swear off other food, tho' hope you're flush if you do, as this place puts your money where your mouth is. If it's a party for one, you could do worse than at the bar with apps and a fierce red.
