Frasca Food and Wine
Friulian Italian
Friuli Venezia Giulia is not the corner of Italy most chefs are racing to cook, which is exactly what makes this fine dining room on Pearl Street worth paying attention to. The Michelin-starred kitchen leans into the region's Slavic and Alpine edges, turning up in unusual pastas and unexpected pairings, while a master sommelier runs one of the more serious wine programs in the state. The James Beard Award for Outstanding Restaurant landed in 2025.
