Our take: Lincoln Square’s Italian love letter: Caro Mio seduces with old-world charm and new-world flair. Bring a bottle of Barbera and prepare to fall head over heels.

Wine Pairing: For 'my dear' Italian food, bring a lovely Valpolicella Ripasso or a Nero d'Avola. White wine lovers should try an Arneis or Falanghina.

Beer Pairing: An Italian craft beer like Baladin Isaac (a spiced wheat beer) pairs beautifully. For a classic choice, go with Moretti La Rossa for a malty complement.

Spirits Pairing: End the meal right with a bottle of Limoncello or, for a more complex sipper, bring Amaro Nonino.
