Il Buco Al Mare

An outpost of the Noho restaurant, Il Buco al Mare is perfect for a candlelit dinner that’s not too fussy but still a bit upscale. Of course they have a whole menu section devoted to tinned fish from the Iberian Peninsula and Italy, but we’re bigger fans of their small plates—plus their ancient grain focaccia, which is made with flour straight from Sicily. An abridged lunch menu also offers a great excuse to people-watch on Main Street, while enjoying local oysters and crudo paired with a $20 spritz. Afterwards, pop in to the shop next door: Il Buco’s Italian espresso bar, artisanal food shop and pricey homewares selection is a lot of fun to browse while buzzed.
