Homemade pastas, soups and salads take center stage at Sportello, an upscale take on a funky, affordable Italian trattoria courtesy of celebrity chef Barbara Lynch (No. 9 Park); done up in brushed chrome and white-and-brown tones, its coffee shop–like setting includes wraparound counter seating and a take-out area serving sweet and savory snacks.
