"Eating at this tiny 14-table spot can be described as a festive parade of hors d'oeuvre, with bite-sized "provisions" rolled around on carts and diners picking what they want."

Make sure to try Brioza's signature fried quail, and save room for Krasinski's assortment of mini desserts.

"Pastas are handmade, and just about everything else is culled from nearby farms. Devotion to the perfect product is so complete that dessert could very well be simply a plate of local strawberries and grapes."

"Fancy-pants darling of the food critics, with grandparents' dining room décor. Only 15 tables and smoking reputation, so good luck getting a reservation."
