Profile

This is what happens when a former Babbo sommelier and an ex–Del Posto kitchen whiz get together and open an unassuming little trattoria: mobs of salivating foodies and goggle-eyed scenesters clamoring to get in. The joint’s not really set up for group dining, but they’ll gladly convert three banquette tables into a cozy nook near the open kitchen for parties of ten. It’s a tight squeeze, but the bruschette, antipasti, primi, and secondi are so good, no one’s going to complain, and it’s easier to book a party here than at Lupa. For now, at least. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

Went here for dinner on a Friday night with a few friends. We couldn't make a reservation that evening but the host was very helpful in getting us seated quickly. The service team was great with nice recommendations on wine (huge list). The brushetta spreads were amazing. We had different dishes (all were great) and my risotto was exceptional. One small bathroom may be the only downside. Definitely a great find and better than most in the WV/ Meat Packing district.

Go to this place to taste amazing food. Avoid crowds, go late, enjoy unique food. Tired of years of restaurant eating? Go here. If the screw up your reservation or you find plastic in your food(other posts) , that sucks, but it happens everywhere. This place is special.
