A newer addition to the local Italian landscape, Il Covo is garnering rave reviews. From its Tuscan-inspired menu, choose the Italiano platter of cured meats, cheeses and marinated veggies before moving on to the agnolotti con sugo di noci or the delicate scaloppini di parma. Save room for torta al cioccolato (chocolate cake with a caramel reduction). On warm evenings, a seat on the beautiful garden patio is a must. And parents take note of the bambino menu, featuring kid-pleasing dishes such as spaghetti with meat sauce, and flatbread pizza.
