ZAGAT ~ “Fabulous” Northern Italian cuisine sets a lofty standard at this “special” Syosset mainstay that “exceeds expectations” with a mix of “beautifully presented”classics and more exotic dishes, all delivered by a “professional” staff whose “attention to detail” never wanes; the Tuscan-decorated interior features an “intimate” fireplace and “flowers on the table” that help make the splurge “well worth it”.
