I think Mingalone is highly underrated. While it doesn't have quite the ""scene"" that other downtown restaurants have, it is a really nice, quiet, delicious italian restaurant. You've got to try the handmade pasta with the bolognese sauce. Absolutely incredible. The best part is that since it is so highly underrated, you don't have to wait for two hours to get in, and you can enjoy a nice romantic dinner without having to yell over the ""scenesters"". Authentic italian with excellent service. Highly, highly recommended.
Pros: Delicious, Quiet, Ambience
