DINING: Classics remastered, at Belli Osteria
Traditional Italian cuisine doesn’t always mean cliché.
That was eminently true at the fledgling dining spot Belli Osteria, which has just opened on a Fort Greene street corner and is warmly welcoming diners to enjoy impeccably prepared, authentically sourced and extremely sprightly Italian specialties with a twist.
Yes, the ingredients are familiar; so too are the dishes. What’s different is the interpretation, loving and luxe, from restaurateurs who already have three successful dining spots in other Brooklyn neighborhoods – the nine-year-old Fragole in Carroll Gardens, two-year-old Piccoli in Windsor Terrace and the year-old Piccoli Trattoria in Park Slope.
