    Start with a cappuccino and croissant and then go for the smoked salmon frittata with goat cheese or the pappardelle with duck ragu, shaved chocolate and orange -- a dish that sounds odd but works. Read more

    Pasta is great: cacio e pepe with lobster and the tagliatelle with pomodoro sauce. The place and service are great although the restaurant is a little pricey for what it offers

    Love the design-minded decor, sky-high ceilings, gold chandeliers and bright yellow banquette. Delicious poached eggs with polenta and mushroom ragù, and yummy brioche with homemade jams for brunch.

    WOW what a great dinner. We had roast duck, black truffle gnocchi, sunchokes, and octopus. Service was great and everything was delicious.

    Come hungry because the 'cicchetti' Venetian style snacks are too die for. My dabs are the chicken liver crostini & the langostino fritto. Save room for the impeccable pastas!

    Great for late lunch on the weekends with reasonable priced ($16-22) small meals. High ceilings and refreshing atmosphere for the museum wanderer. Try the pesto ravioli/classic meat ball spaghetti.

    Italian snacks like arancini, veal tartare, and grilled cuttlefish, house-made pappardelle with duck ragu, dry-aged sirloin steak. Try getting steak at the Tenement Museum. Read more

    One of the best new restaurants on the upper west side. I love the selection of Italian wines and beer; and the pasta dishes are killer. Pappardella with duck ragu is a must.

    Great restaurant, operated by Philly restaurant mogul Stephen Starr. Had a Caesar salad and pappardelle w/duck ragout - both excellent. Also great Italian-centric wine list.

    The meatballs are on every menu - brunch, lunch & dinner. - for a good reason: they are spectacular. And the gundi for brunch is amazing.

    Be sure to special order the Risotto alla Kristina. If you've been to Jim's place in place in Philly before he came to NY you'll know it's a must.

    The Italian toast was delicioso! Make sure to stroll in the museum afterwards to learn more about NYC history.

    Don’t feel bad playing with your food at Caffe Storico - their whipped baccala is a fishy mash with grilled triangles and polenta that has to be scooped. # 41 on our 100 Dishes to Eat Now!

    Good fare, not heavy. Good Bloody Mary. It's not a hangover-curing brunch, though.
