We should have headed to Cocoa Beach sooner. As always, it has that long, narrow main room dominated by its ovens, with those Italo-stylish movie posters and a ra...

These last two are from...

Tucci is the city’s hottest new Italian restaurant in many a moon. Beautifully built atop fine 19th-century bones, it’s the first place that might give reigning boldface-magnet Carbone a run for its money — and for less money than that notoriously hot spot. TUCCI doesn’t have a rockstar chef like Mario Carbone in the kitchen, but it has a very good...
