Comprehensively hyped and critiqued as only a Keith McNally joint can be. The pros were all hating-on in early returns, but McNally has mostly set things right. Tongue-twister Italian menu hits the usual suspects, from fagioli to risotto, served to a hungry and quasi-fabulous crowd. Bread's shipped fresh from Balthazar. Typical comfortable McNally interior, with nice tile, weathered brick, and farmhousey beams on the ceilings.
