Civico 1845 in Little Italy does lots of Calabrian pasta dishes, but the highlight here is a full menu of vegan options. Linguine al verde, for example, is dressed in spinach pesto, roasted hazelnuts, and finished with lemon zest, while gnocchi features “Italian sausage,” eggplant, and vegan mozzarella. When you add in an extensive wine-by-the-glass list, a dedicated Aperol spritz menu, and its selection of digestifs, Civico makes for a great, relaxed date-night spot in one of the city’s busiest neighborhoods.
