Acappella

Hand-wovern tapestries, a creepy replica of a 15th century portrait of Federigo da Montefeltro, Duke of Urbino, and vaulted ceilings are the type of details that make this Northern Italian restaurant a classic. Meat, more particularly beef and veal, is the mainstay of the menu. Try the altinbocca alla romana (veal scaloppini with prosciutto and spinach, in a white wine sauce) or the Bresaola (beef carpaccio with cheese, greens, and truffle oil). More adventurous diners should request the cooking show, where select dishes are prepared table-side with white wine and fire.
