Contorno's Restaurant

New York
Italian Restaurant
$$$$

Although the most surprising thing about Contorno's may be that it proves the existence of "boutique Holiday Inns", this hidden gem's doling out Sunday-dinner-style Italian from inside of one, its grand dining room evincing the elegance of previous decades via chandeliers, abundant shades of burnt orange, and the occasional flora. Bites from a Blue Water Grill alum include copious pastas, suckling pig, and coffee-braised short ribs, while regional flights of red & white refresh every Tuesday.
