Figlia
Best-in-class pizza in a room dressed to impress.
Figlia
Italian$$
Andreas Papadakis asserts his carb-king status at Figlia, the pizza-forward sibling to city pasta bar Tipo 00. All sourdough tang and satisfying chew, his Napoli-style pies are so light they could levitate to tables if the waiters ever dropped the ball.
Toppings bring unexpected delights, such as pepperberry sharpening a classic salami and fior di latte. Airy-pocketed focaccia is a showstopper in its own right, the perfect sopper for clams in lemon-spiked chicken broth. Bouncy quail skewers get a lick of sweet-sour balsamic glaze, and fat pucks of gnocchi in tomato-tarragon sauce deserve their place as the menu’s sole pasta.
The dark-hued dining room appeals equally to multi-generational pizza parties and solo diners perched at the central bar – a prime spot to talk low-intervention Italian vino with the clued-in staff.
