Ascari’s namesake is Alberto Ascari, a 1950’s Formula One Italian racing legend. Ascari doesn’t hide its passion with its racing-themed decor, but still manages to maintain a casual, cozy feel. It’s an Italian restaurant featuring homemade pastas made in-house daily, and a high-quality wine selection from around the globe. Their customers love them, as they rave about Ascari being one of the best Italian restaurants in the city. A bonus: They also offer a wide selection of Italian-inspired cocktails during cocktail hour – or any hour, really.

The spot’s carefully curated wine list is updated regularly, and on Mondays bottles are on offer at half price.
