Casa Tua
The stunning Casa Tua is a sleek and chic, country Italian-style establishment set in a refurbished 1925 Mediterranean-style house-cum-hotel. It has several dining areas, including a resplendent outdoor garden, comfy Ralph Lauren–esque living room, and a communal eat-in kitchen. If you’re in the market to splurge, the beef tenderloin with seared foie gras, toasted hazelnuts and sauteed leeks is a huge hit, though we prefer the seared branzino with black olives, cherry tomatoes, roasted artichokes, and asparagus. Risottos are also highly recommended. Two complaints: Service is inconsistent, ranging from ultraprofessional to absurdly lackadaisical. For these prices, they should be wiping our mouths for us. What used to be a fabulous lounge upstairs is now a members-only club, so don’t even try to get in.
