A cross between an L.A. strip mall gem and a cozy Brooklyn dive, Boia De sits on the edge of Buena Vista and Little Haiti. Chefs Luciana Giangrandi and Alex Meyer constantly reinvent Italian classics with gorgeous consistency. The beef tartare topped with crunchy shallot-garlic, fried capers, and tonnato sauce is legendary, and the fresh pasta with a superb natural wine list makes every visit special.
