You get the sense the kitchen isn’t trying to impress anyone; they’re just cooking the way they’d want to eat after a long night.

The pasta comes out with clear intention. The chicken marsala is glossy, tangled, rich, the sort of dish that makes silence fall around the table for a moment. We ordered two. The salads are alive, the bread is an invitation to linger, and the charred edges on the proteins speak the kind of truth only fire can tell. The comfort of Italian classics, the coolness of Echo Park.
