Ignotz's Ristorante
8.6
A Heart of Italy classic that wins by leaning into old-school comfort with unusually tight execution—especially the chicken parmigiana and the baked pastas. The meal starts strong with the roasted-garlic-and-bread setup, and the portions make it easy to turn one order into a full table plan.
