More than the chefs at many other Italian newcomers downtown, Ms. Burrell fashions bold dishes meant to snap you to attention instead of cautious ones that lull you into complacency. - Frank Bruni

New York Magazine  

The menu is an almost textbook compilation of currently trendy Italian dining style--small plates, or "piccolini" an eclectic selection of wines from the "enoteca" wine bar; and rustic pastas salted with an assortment of fatty pork products. - Adam Platt
