A magnet for "media" moguls, "Page Six regulars" and "monied" UES types, this "old-school" Italian dispenses food "delectable" enough to justify the "through-the-nose" tabs; expect the "cold shoulder" if you're not a "member of the club", but at least the "cheek-to-jowl" seating bolsters the chance of rubbing elbows with "Matt Lauer."
