Frommer's Exceptional

This stylish, airy Italian restaurant, offering some of the best Northern Italian fare in town, echoes the palatial setting of the Grand Hyatt Hotel, with a tall ceiling, parquet floors, slick black furniture, and ceiling-to-floor windows offering a spectacular view of the harbor -- day and night. Dining is on two levels, giving everyone a ringside seat. The aroma of homemade Grissini breadsticks greets you as soon as you enter the restaurant, whetting your appetite, perhaps, for the antipasto misto, a selection of appetizers, followed by the homemade chestnut pasta with Ligurian basil pesto, potatoes, and green beans, or the scampi and bell pepper risotto with fresh Caprino cheese and olives. Main dishes on the changing menu have included grilled lobster with bell peppers, capers, garlic, and oregano, and roasted lamb rack with mustard, tangerine, and honey along with escarole with a black olive and wine sauce. The wine cellar, with 1,000 bottles, is exclusively Italian. Lunch features lighter fare and more choices of pasta and risotto, but whether for lunch or a romantic dinner, you can't go wrong dining here.
