1. Luminosa

    Italian

    Refined Italian in a beautifully restored hotel, with an L-shaped marble bar, brass fixtures, and the kind of room that makes you feel like you dressed at least semi-appropriately. The menu leans wood-fired and pasta-forward, with ingredients sourced seriously, local farmers and whole-animal butchery included. It earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand, which means the food punches above what you'd expect to pay. The crowd skews date-night, but nobody looks too stressed about it.
