Sette Luna

A taste of Tuscan fare travels to this urban trattoria with rustic Italian flair.

Renowned for its rustic simplicity, quality ingredients, and ubiquitous olive oil, the flavors of Tuscany are in full bloom at this city-tucked trattoria. Conversations in the intimate – but bustling – dining space are punctuated by an aromatic open kitchen, home to handmade pastas and wood-oven pizzas. The grotto-style bar proffers a sommelier-selected wine list, as well as concoctions like the Strawberry Basil Margarita. Seek out the secluded wine cellar to host a private party, or return on Sundays for a lively jazz brunch.

A focus on starters means shareable plates of the popular Antipasto – a handpicked platter of cured meats and cheeses with roasted tomatoes, olives and artichoke hearts – it also means supple seafood like Polpo, tender poached octopus. House specialties like Agnolotti con Zucca – pockets of pasta filled with roasted butternut squash– continue to exemplify the regional fare.
