If Antica Trattoria looks like the kind of restaurant that starts you off with an order of free bread, that’s because it does. And we really appreciate that. In a town where Italian cuisine has been refined to perfection, the fettuccine and chicken marsala here aren’t necessarily destination-worthy, but who cares? Most things cost less than $20—including all the pizzas and pastas—and the meatballs come with a surprise hidden inside (cheese). For a low-maintenance date night, grab one of the 10 or so tables in the dining room decorated with garlands of fake flowers, and enjoy some mozzarella in carrozza alongside a $9 glass of wine.
