The A 16 team has brought us the cuisine of the "great, talented young chef" Matthew Accarrno, whose take on the Cal-Ital genre includes ricotta fritters with smoked maple syrup, hand-cut tagliatelle with sea urchin, spicy tomato sauce and green onion and Sonoma rabbit with Bosc pear, chestnut, parsnip, dandelion and mustard. Add "low checks" and Shelley Lindgren's "exceptional wine list" and you have "an experience that stands out from others in the city," even though "Accarrino adheres to the Italian principal of good ingredients and simple preparations."
