This wonderful family-run Turkish restaurant has some of the best Turkish food I have had, and they are very reasonably priced. If you want wine, you have to bring your own bottle.

This hidden gem offers some of the best Italian fare I've had in the city. It's quite pricey (expect $70-$100 per person), but it's great for special occasions. The gnocchi and lamb chops are great!
