Torrisi

There is perfection in the details at Torrisi, where waiters are crisply dressed in dinner jackets and tables are draped in pressed linens, but the buzzy warmth is as charming as the good looks. Nestled inside the landmark Puck Building, this highly imaginative restaurant expertly balances the creative and the familiar. Nothing feels copied or contrived, and while some of the dishes may seem familiar, they've all been revamped with panache. The team caters to excited diners who feast on items like tuna with pickled caponata, penne with sauteed baby chanterelles in a luscious butter sauce, and an Italian riff on Dover sole with Francese sauce. Affogato arrives in an oversized martini glass with vanilla ice cream, chocolate fudge, and an espresso granita.
