| - After a couple of meals here, this restaurant became our favorite in town. Don't come here looking for spaghetti and meatballs. Papavero's ever changing menu is full of inventive, home-style Italian food. House-cured meats and house-made foie gras, amazing seafood dishes (including several preparations of octopus that are the best I've had) and a great accessible wine list. Focus on the specials, which are plentiful. The servers are knowledgeable and always do a great job recommending a wine to go with your meal. Like the rest of the menu, Papavero's desserts are inventive and amazing. The budino (butterscotch pudding) will change the way you think about pudding and butterscotch. Finally, bar manager, Kevin, has put together the finest restaurant bar in town. His house made spirits include fantastic limoncello and nocino, and his cocktails are out of this world. I could go on and on, but really, I just can't recommend this restaurant highly enough. With the leisurely pacing and cozy, casual atmosphere, you'll feel like you're enjoying a elaborate, home-cooked meal in Northern Italy.
