Bar Toma
110 E. Pearson St.

Chef Tony Mantuano of Spiaggia and Levy Restaurants have changed the nationality of the former Bistro 110 from French to Italian with Bar Toma, a wine bar, pizzeria, mozzarella bar, gelateria, bakery, espresso bar and more. Open all day, the sprawling casual restaurant was designed to be a regular stop for neighborhood locals. Light and airy pizza from the wood-burning oven is a signature, along with a variety of small plates. Pizza toppings range from lamb sausage, tomatoes, olives and Manchego cheese to Manila clams with garlic, oregano, chiles and Pecorino Romano.
