Casa Isola

If you haven’t been to Casa Isola yet, a birthday is the perfect occasion. The Italian eatery from celebrated chef Jose Mendin (Pubbelly) and Chef Santo Agnello is an absolute delight. Start the birthday celebration with appetizers like tuna crudo, burrata Panzanella, and arancini, and then stuff your face with pasta, pasta, and more pasta. 

The rigatoni alla vodka is a must and is big enough to share (although you probably won’t want to). The linguine with white water clams is another standout, and if you want to go all out, order the massive veal chop parm. You can’t go wrong with anything here – it’s all amazing.
