Lugano chef/owner Greg Neville has been named Salt Lake’s “Best Chef,” and his popular eastside eatery combines a friendly bistro/trattoria-style ambiance with the rich flavors and scents of Italy. It’s a bustling spot, where the open-air kitchen and wood-burning oven give customers a live Food TV-worthy show each night. Neville’s seasonal cuisine is mostly Northern Italian, with a focus on rustic fare like wood-burning oven “clay pot” mussels, wood-oven roasted rigatoni pomodoro, tagliattelle with wild mushrooms, pizza “Quattro stagione” and luscious, braised, Angus beef short ribs with pancetta and spinach salad. And, since Greg Neville is expert in Italian wines, the Lugano wine list offers the best Italian wine selection around, complemented by additional imported and domestic wines.
