Hidden by a name that sounds cliché, this family-owned, romantic eatery is one of the best Italian restaurants in the city. Reminiscent of 1950’s Sicily, the Godfather’s dining room is dark and velvety, and the ambiance is complete with formally-dressed waiters and live piano music. The menu boasts recipes steeped in family tradition, making the restaurant ideal for those craving a classic (and utterly delicious) Italian meal.
