Vutera

Carlo and Gina Vutera, the brother/sister team behind Williamsburg's Rose Live Music, have finally given a proper name to their cellar-level restaurant, and tasked former Little Giant sous-chef Molly Delmonte with redesigning the menu. Carlo describes Vutera as "new Mediterranean in concept, but not classical," so you'll find a wide range of seasonal dishes, from a parsnip gnocchi with blue cheese sauce to a red-wine braised lamb shank with polenta. Italian, French and Spanish wines dominate the wine list, and the rustic and cozy space is perfect for sharing a pre-show quartino (and perhaps a roasted almond panna cotta with orange coulis) before heading upstairs to take in some late night music.
