Flatiron, Manhattan · restaurant
Borgo feels like the kind of restaurant that’s been around forever, from the marble bar to the lush garden tucked out back. The timballo di anelletti—a dramatic pasta pie filled with braised beef cheek—is the signature order, though the clam pasta finished with bottarga has its own devoted following. Thoughtful spacing between tables and a low-key elegance give the room a calm, unhurried feel that’s increasingly rare in New York.
