Food lovers are going nuts over Mario Carbone’s namesake restaurant, a modern homage to the Italian-American restaurants of the mid-20th century. Carbone evokes nostalgia without a hint of kitsch. The antipasti menu includes a riff on the prosciutto and melon dish that every Italian-American joint served in the ’60s, a killer Caprese salad, rib-sticking pastas like spicy rigatoni in vodka sauce, plus a veal Parmesan that would impress even the most discerning Italian grandpa.
