Sportello

“In the same Barbara Lynch complex as Menton [and] Drink, is this gleaming white tribute to lunch counters and modern Italian food. Seated on stools at u-shaped counters, diners at Sportello feast on grilled asparagus with fresh ricotta, tagliatelle bolognese, and wonderful desserts. When available, Sportello’s strozzapreti with rabbit and green olives is one of the best pasta dishes around. The fare is simple, the atmosphere laid-back…it’s the kind of place one can visit frequently.”
