Tiny trattorias litter Little Italy, but Ecco La stands out. The rustic dining room is all red brick and ochre walls, with a wood-burning pizza oven as the centerpiece. Arugula and smoked salmon make a good match for robust tomatoes and Parmesan. There's also pasta (rigatoni goes nicely with wild mushrooms, sage cream, and truffle essence), and tender, meaty main dishes, which include capon and salmon. The menu always offers a vegetarian risotto, too. Desserts are strictly for chocolate lovers.
