Karen Akunowicz's Southie enoteca — the James Beard winner runs a menu of handmade pastas and Emilia-Romagna-inspired cooking in a warm, buzzy room that feels more like a neighborhood haunt than a destination. The tortellini en brodo is the signature; the wine list leans into Italian small producers. Loud, friendly, the kind of room that made Southie a dining neighborhood. For modern Italian without the white-tablecloth weight.
