| About: | With its dark wood, long bar with brass fittings and leather banquette seating, Salute Ristorante hearkens back to spaghetti joints of the '50s, but only in appearance. The menu at this upscale eatery is strictly posh with prawns with pancetta drizzled in extra-virgin olive oil and potato gnocchi in a beef ragout that is hearty and divine. Wines include vintages from Italy and California with prices starting around $10 for a good bottle. The location in downtown could not be better for a break from shopping or a bite before or after an event at the Rafael Film Center. The mood is casual, but the service is strictly business. |
