Directions

What to get

  • Potato sfincione (potato cream, roasted potato, lemon)
  • Classic Vito (tomato and oregano)
  • Pepperoni with saffron honey
  • Burrata with spicy tomato sauce
  • The Classic Vito sfincione

When to go

Lunch Wed–Sun is the casual window; eat in rather than taking it to go (Infatuation). Nights bring Italian-leaning drinks and wine (Eater).

Insider tip

In the old Colt's Chocolates building. The dough is fully hydrated, naturally leavened and cold-fermented (Eater); one thick slice can be a meal (Michelin). Chef Michael Hanna was a 2022 StarChefs Rising Star.
