Heidi’s Picks

Heidi's Picks is a weekly selection of restaurant suggestions from Review-Journal critic Heidi Knapp Rinella.

MARCHE BACCHUS

2620 Regatta Drive; 804-8008

We loved the lakeside outdoor terrace and the extensive selection in the retail wine shop -- and $10 corkage in the restaurant -- but no less than the artisan cheese platter, beef tartare, rack of lamb, pork chop and flourless chocolate cake. (4/17/09)

Overall: A-$$$

NOVE ITALIANO

The Palms, 4321 W. Flamingo Road; 942-6800

The Palms is a hipster kind of place, and Nove Italiano definitely fits right in. We were surprised, then, to encounter such a soulful old-school Sunday Gravy with multiple layers of flavor, which tasted as though it had been made by Chef Geno Bernardo's gray-haired grandmother. Also worthy of note: a much lighter Veal Nove. (8/6/10)

Overall: A $$$$
