Lilia
The best of Italy, right in the heart of Williamsburg. There’s no Italian nonna here, but chef Missy Robbins, an Italy-lover. On the menu at her modern trattoria? Wood-fired seafood, handmade pasta, and classic Italian cocktails. On the plate: cacio e pepe, grilled artichokes, and even house-made mozzarella. The icing on the cake? Warm hospitality and a modern setting. For a relaxed dining experience, head to "the boot".
