Fodor's Review:

Come eat under the train station. Not exactly the best sales pitch you've ever heard, but this wonderful, long-neglected space beneath Connolly Station was imaginatively revamped to create one of the city's most fashionable dining spots. Cavernous arches, smooth Portland stone floors, striking furniture, and dramatic lighting create the background for a mostly young business set. Each of the vaults is decorated in its own style, ranging from hypermodern to turn-of-the-20th-century elegant. Cocktails are a specialty, although it's worth a visit for the food alone. The Italian chef makes everything from scratch, including the pizza dough. A wide-ranging menu covers light snack options alongside more substantial dishes like the house pizza, a blend of tomato, mozzarella, prawns, red onion, and herbs. Be sure to leave room for the excellent honey-and-pine-nut tart. Note that dinner is served only until 8.
