Chef Vola’s
The basement BYO, located in a row home, might always be crowded but it’s worth it to try and get a reservation here. The friendly, but secluded atmosphere and home-style Italian dishes make it unmissable. Try the shrimp fettuccine and the cheesy, mouth-watering veal Parmigiana is raved about here. The banana cream pie with Oreo crust is a favorite for dessert, but the almond gelato is heavenly as well. It’s cash only.
