Dilano's Risotto Pasta Bar

Tucked into Gorge Road, Dilano's is that intimate, father-and-son trattoria you always hope to stumble upon. Cozy. Unpretentious. Fiercely dedicated to the carb arts. Diners who usually skip the rice dishes find themselves instantly converted—expect a flawless mantecatura that yields a ridiculously creamy Arrabiata with a fiery kick. The pasta game is equally strong, turning out rustic, fresh bowls of Con Pollo. Those lucky enough to score one of the few tables constantly point to the pristine seafood—an inventive octopus plate laced with radish and crispy fried capers is a certified knockout. Space is tight, making weekend reservations mandatory. Finish with an impossibly light tiramisu. Passionate hospitality. Serious flavor. Just go.
