The menu at this Uptown grill and wine bar includes mostly Italian fare with a few Bosnian selections, including dishes based on recipes from owner Nino Divanovic's grandmother. Hand-tossed stone-fired pizzas round out the menu. Fontana' s unique wine program offers wines priced by the ounce. All wines are either $1 or $2 per ounce; you can purchase either a half-glass (3 ounces, $3 or $6), a full glass (6 ounces, $6 or $12) or a bottle ($22 or $44). During the summer months, there's a spacious patio filled with flowers and, of course, a few fountains (fontana means fountain in Italian).
