Formento's

B. Hospitality (The Bristol, Balena, Nonna's) opened the doors to their sprawling Randolph Street restaurant back in 2015, and have been serving up brilliant takes on mid-century Southern Italian cuisine ever since—even with a menu overhaul leaning toward lighter, seafood- and veggie-focused fare arriving a year later. The dining room's retro vibe—complete with crimson banquette seating and vintage black-and-white photos—invites diners to try classically inspired innovations like Canestri, a heap of ricotta-topped pasta covered in pork neck gravy and accompanied by spicy fennel sausage and melt-in-your-mouth meatballs.
How to book: Reserve via OpenTable or order take-out and delivery via Tock.

When it comes to Thanksgiving dinner, a healthy pinch of Italian gusto sets this inspired Fulton Market original’s carry-out apart. Chopped Salad, House-marinated Olives, Lasagna, Focaccia Sage Stuffing, and Cranberry Sauce lay the groundwork for a juicy Whole Chicken served alongside Broccolini. Buon appetito, amici.
Cost: Packages run $195 each (serves 4)
How to book: Order pick-up by November 19 via Tock.
