s sJuly 15, 2019Texture of the pasta noodle is so good but there were just few menu of pastas could choose.
Mike ChauMay 17, 2013Try the Stromboli Bread - From the complimentary bread basket. So good it deserves its own shot.
Zach CarlileSeptember 13, 2016It's a no brainier: duck ravioli or short rib & bone marrow agnolotti. One of my favorite restaurants in NYC
Scott BoniOctober 25, 2013Short rib and bone marrow agnolotti. Don't ask. Just do it. Not to mention that house made Stromboli that is in every basket of bread.
Cristian GonzalezAugust 9, 2014The mozzarella in carrozza is a great starter. And the spaghetti with tomato sauce will keep you coming back again and again.- L. Q.October 10, 2019Hands down for the polenta. The scallops were also nice. Don’t waist money with the crudos, though.
Marie La RueJuly 27, 2023Always consistent. A bit sceney with an all ages crowd. The tuna-truffle app and the short rib are favorites.
Hussain H.March 20, 2016This might be the best Italian Resturant I've ever been to. Delicious food. Everything was just perfect
Minhee ParkApril 30, 2016Best spaghetti ever! Must try the polenta with mushrooms too. Favorite two things to get every time I go.- James G.September 29, 2013The creamy polenta with truffled mushrooms is simply wonderful. The banana bread is exquisite.
- Eric WagnerOctober 23, 2010The chocolate cake is like yin and yang. Warm, rich chocolate cake, lightly crumbly outside but intensely soft and moist at the center, paired with cold, creamy vanilla ice cream. It's perfect.
HOBNOB MagazineFebruary 22, 2011Fun, upscale Italian fare. Soft Shell Crab app, fantastic bread + spreads, Tagliatelle w spring vegetables. see photos at: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=81277&id=765634189&l=521d0e7887
Zak SuharMarch 29, 2018The Palermo Old Fashioned with bourbon vanilla bean is one of the best old fashioned's I've had!
Mike SiemsFebruary 20, 2014Four gras ravioli is the best Italian dish I've had in NYC after living here for five years. Get it. That is all.
Blair BaxterAugust 30, 2019Service was horrible. The polenta is great but the once amazing simple 4 ingredients spaghetti is just not as fresh now.
Missy MackeyFebruary 3, 2022Service was impeccable, nice interior. Get the spaghetti and coconut panacotta dessert.
Daniel BouludJuly 30, 2014Scott Conant and I have often worked together for Citymeals-on-Wheels. His spaghetti with tomato and basil is simple and wonderful.
DrewskiOctober 5, 2016Spaghetti and desserts were great, but not everything blew our minds. Somewhere between the heart and the flat face.
SEGAJanuary 5, 2012Great food, and perfectly cooked pasta. The duck & foie gras ravioli, as well as the spaghetti, are dishes you shouldn't miss. - Kellie, Community Manager
SolDecember 31, 2018Not what it used to be. The service is careless as ever, and the spaghetti and polenta that used to carry the menu have lost their charm. Avoid.
Lili BazFebruary 1, 2022Simple yet delicious food! The pasta lived up to the hype. The service was also amazing.
Tarik HartJanuary 20, 2015Not sure you can go wrong with any of the pasta dishes. Everyone I've tried has been amazing.
Emily CurrinAugust 29, 2012if you want really fast service, get there at 10:30 on a sunday with a party of 11 after spending 6 hours at the standard biergarten. everything came out really fast!
Kirstin BensonJuly 11, 2010The short ribs were the best I've ever had. Seriously, they melted when I touched them with the fork. The spaghetti with basil and tomatoes is AMAZING. The Nero d'arola 2008 (approx. $40) pairs well.
Barbara BilodeauOctober 28, 2016Highly recommend the short rib and bone marrow agnolotti- little pockets of deliciousness!
DerekSeptember 22, 2016Home made pastas are amazing. Try the spaghetti for a masterfully executed classic!

cellokrisMay 27, 2013Ask for the vegetarian menu: sharing the tagliatelle and of course the spaghetti will make you feel like Lady and the Tramp.
Gianna NebbiaApril 9, 2018Everything is well thought out from start to finish. Real emphasis on service and quality.
Debby ButlienJanuary 28, 2016Warning: entire table must order from the Restaurant Week menu or no one can. One of our party of 5 didn't want the offered pasta so the other 4 of us had to pay full menu price. Unwelcome surprise.
Mike StrockoJuly 8, 2014Get the spaghetti. Seriously, get it every time you eat here. It's that good.
Khalid NisarJune 22, 2013All the hype of scarpetta revolves around their spaghetti, which is very good. However their polenta is great and shouldn't be missed.
Chef Scott Conant is king! The creamy polenta fricassee of truffed mushrooms cannot be missed along with Chef's signature spaghetti. The food is unexpected and masterful along with a warm dining room Read more
the spaghetti is through the roof amazing and the polenta with mushrooms is superb. so silky.
Johnnie SkywalkingJanuary 25, 2016Simplest is often tastiest. Spaghetti with tomato and basil was very sophisticated taste that doesn't need to shout loud.
Jeffrey TascarellaFebruary 10, 2010Say hi to George- let him pick you out some crazy wines. Get a bunch of pastas. The spaghetti is as good as you've heard. I love the farfalle with sweetbreads. The chocolate cake is simple, but ridic.
LogoTVMarch 8, 2011“Bring your bib with you because the food at Scarpetta is so amazing you'll be drooling on your way home! You have to try the Black Tagliolini!” - Meredith, Setup Squad
Dan YoungMarch 7, 2014The spaghetti with basil and tomato is the most fantastic bowl of pasta I've ever eaten. A+
Halstead PropertyAugust 4, 2011The Capretto lives up to its billing as a trip-worthy dish alone. We were also impressed with one of the most unique wine lists in the City.
