This was a nice treat, after a lot of walking. I am a New Yorker, and this was my first visit to Eataly. We sat at the bar and Kishan immediately greeted us and answered a few questions. We ordered a cheese and cold cut platter which was amazing, the fried calamari was perfect. I ordered the grand Pear for a drink and man ohhhhhh man was this DELICIOUS!!!!!! It was like having dessert in a glass. Kishan made our experience a very positive one, he even made our high bill not feel so bad. I would come back here again, but I do feel it is very expensive. read more

Osteria della Pace - Italian Near Me - New York, New York

Had a fabulous dinner at Eataly's Osteria della Pace. I don't give out many 5 star reviews, but this was one of my beat meals of the year. The Brunello wine flight was exceptional. If you like Brunello - do NOT miss it. The Burrata appetizer was amazing. The bell pepper reduction and almonds with it must be one of the tastiest combinations I have experienced with Buratta. For entree, I had the scallops which were magnificent. Cooked to a perfect tenderness, and the mushrooms which accompanied were made to go with these scallops! Fabulous service, delicious food, beautifully curated wines. All around great experience! read more

Osteria della Pace - Try the Brunello wine flight! - Italian Near Me - New York, New York

Located inside Eataly and at the heart of the Financial District, Osteria della Pace enjoys lots of corporate foot traffic for lunch. Having tasted the food, however, I do not think the experience is nearly worth the high price tag. There's nothing particularly wrong with the food. It is edible Italian cuisine. It just doesn't taste special, like your neighborhood restaurant could have made the same dishes with a 25% reduction on price. The calamari and zucchini had a good shareable portion, but tasted bland. It was heavily battered in flour, yet the calamari still managed to not keep its coating as we placed the pieces on our plates. The menu indicated that the tomato sauce would be spicy but it tasted like canned marinara sauce to me. I got the Orata al Forno with a side of broccoli rabe for lunch and was not impressed with either of the dishes. The sea bream was nicely roasted and tasted meaty but wasn't deboned well. The roasted potatoes tasted foul. The olives and the roasted cherry tomatoes were palatable, so the dish was not all bad. The broccoli rabe was not seasoned well and still had that bitter taste. My friend got the scallops, which actually tasted fine. The scallops must have been fried in a skillet, in which usually steaks are cooked because they had that nice meaty flavor and a good char on them. But $36 for a total of 3 scallops was robbery. Overall, a subpar experience for truly expensive prices. I'd skip next time. read more

Sit-down carve-out restaurant inside Eataly downtown. Great atmosphere with unique corner building views in downtown. Food is very good, service is decent for staff who are geared mostly toward dealing with tourists and business lunches. If you are 4 or more, go for the Gran Tagliere: "our epic selection of cured meats and cheeses served with mortadella crostini, gnocco fritto, seasonal fruits | 38" -- this was a big hit and a great way to start off the meal. Pastas are good too, obviously. Make a reservation. Great bar area too to sit for a drink and light bites. read more

I found this place on yelp as I was searching for a place for valentine's day dinner. I dint know that this restaurant is in the back of Eataly until I went inside. I usually come to eataly to have a pizza slice or some desserts from their bakery but never went inside the restaurant area. But it is surprisingly a very big area and the view is amazing. This area is also shared by other restaurant LA pizza and LA pasta. I had a reservation at 8 pm but we arrived early around 7:30 and they checked our coat as the table was ready. We started with some complimentary bread with extra virgin olive oil. Their were 3 different types of bread and 2 slices of each. I really liked the tomato focaccia bread. We ordered gnocchi sorrentina and Maialino from the Dinner menu. They also had a special valentine'd day menu. Our waiter told us that our order will take 15-20 mins and we were fine by that as we were on a window seat and the view was amazing, was seeing the WTC with all the colorful lights. Our order came in 15 mins, and both dishes looked amazing. Gnocchi - 4/5 I was craving for a pasta but as soon as I saw gnocchi in the menu, I knew its going to my dinner. It came with melted burrata on the top, tomato sauce which was tasty but very less, should have been more on the plate. Gnocchi without sauce and burrata was bland, there was very little seasoning. Overall I liked it, with little more seasoning and more sauce it would have been perfect. Maialino - 4/5 The grilled pork and the pork belly was really good but my husband dint like the vegetables that it came with. Their dessert menu looks really amazing but we were so full that we dint order any dessert. But they gave one fennel cookie and one small chocolate crisp as complimentary desserts. I had a great time, service was very good. Its ambiance is very fancy, a good place for a date. Restrooms are very clean and spacious. read more

I think it's important to start off with the pasta. It was very al dente. Not undercooked. ...to me at least it wasn't. I thought it was perfect. Italian Americans (of which I am one) simply cook their pasta more than Italians in Italy. The antipasti were all very good. We were a table of 8 and got 2 salads, a salumi & formaggio platter, fried calamari & zucchini and a fresh mozzarella. The bread was also good and there was enough for the table. Went with ziti all genovese which I thought was outstanding. Tasted the gnocchi and they were also outstanding. Was told the lobster pasta was so/so, and the ravioli stuffed with sole was also so/so. Just cannot confirm because I didn't taste, but the lobster smelled pretty darn good. Deserts were very good. Had cioccolata. Didn't taste the others like "Italian sundae" (think that was the name), but was it was good. Wine list is extensive and expensive. Equally so! Overall was excellent and team was impressed read more

Just one word: AMAZING! This little cozy restaurant is an hidden gem in the Eataly DT store. If you are lucky, you can get an amazing table with the suggestive view of the memorial and of the freedom tower (try to ask for it, or write it in the reservation ;) ). The staff is super friendly and you can actually find legit Italians working in the restaurant that make the whole experience even more authentic. We started at the bar, where the bartender made us couple of amazing cocktails. My boyfriend had the No Guey, it was a delicious smokey, fruity, and refreshing cocktail. I had the Italian Sangria. A twist on a Sangria which was made with Lambrusco....tastyyyy! They have a huge selections of wine by the bottle with every kind of price (I would ask for suggestions), and we went for a bottle of DeConciliis "Fiano"...$105 not cheap, but super worthy. We started with the Tuna Carpaccio and a side of mixed greens. The Tuna was super fresh, and the balance of the apple/fish/capers was perfection. We also ordered the Passatelli with Clams and Mussels, a typical Italian pasta. I never saw anything like this in any Italian restaurant in the city since it's pasta made out of bread and cheese. It was literally mind blowing. We also had the Veal Saltimbocca which melted in our mouths. It was such a flavorful piece of meat! We didn't have any dessert because we were too full, but we cannot wait to come back to try more food! read more

I had a long day at work and was starving. I met up with a friend to grab a quick bite at Eataly downtown. I thought we were getting Pizza or Sandwishes but we ended up at Osteria della Pace at the back of Eataly. I thought it was just a bar when I walk in until the waiter took us to the dining area behind the bar. It was stunning because I didn't expect this view. The interior was very classy and gorgeous, the lighting was perfect for a date. We ordered a bottle of orange color wine the waiter recommended and it was impressive. The prosciutto and pasta dishes we order were absolutely delicious. I would definitely go back. Friendly staffs and I love the marble tables! read more

Good spot in Eataly downtown. Good place to go with friends. Service was great. We ordered to start: - bread at the beginning was great & fresh with olive and balsamic vinegar. - PANZANELLA E BURRATA: it was very good and abundant. - CARPACCIO DI POLIPO / OCTOPUS: really good and pretty abundant. ENTREES: - Spaguetti al pomodoro: great and really al dente! Very fresh. Size seemed small at first but it's just in appearance because I was pretty full at the end! - PESCE AL CARTOCCIO (mussels, clams): it was good. Could've been better maybe a bit more tastier. Presentation was cool. DESSERT: - DAILY SELECTION OF PASTICCERIA: A bit disappointed.... didn't like them much and it's the same stuff you can get at their coffee shop. - housemade PEAR SORBET: really good! read more

Food was superb. Service was great. But I felt rushed the entire time. I understand being attentive but I felt we didn't get a chance to look at menu without being asked what we wanted from start to finish. I live in NYC this isn't the norm. This was uncomfortable. But let's talk about the food: Octopus carpaccio amazing 5- everything and more than I expected Burrata 5- never can go wrong with burrata Passatelli di Mare 4- not what I expected too salty and doesn't do pasta right Linguine all'astice 10 - perfection Delicious food. Great servers. But rushed the entire time. read more

If you are coming as a group for a weekday lunch, make sure to have a reservation as this place gets crowded quickly. They start you off with a bread platter and olive oil. The tomato sauce bread was great, but the others were very dry. All breads were cold as well. The entrees were all presented beautifully and were perfectly portioned. The gnocchi can get heavy after a few bites but the acidity of the tomato sauce balances it out. The burrata added to the gnocchi dish was divine and creamy. The food is very high quality and service is amazing. You get what you pay for here. read more

Came for NYE 2020 special dinner & will hold a special place in my stomach for the worst meal to date. It was reminiscent of the dog food I sampled as a child, and looked like canned cat food in its' various hues of brown, mauve and something shaped as though it came out of a cat food tin but was green! The wine pairings were acidic enough to not only wash out the disgusting taste in the mouth but also forced us to drink lots of water. I never actually tried cardboard but surely the dessert was probably the closest I will ever get to that. The ultimate gut punch was the price of all this overhyped & pretentious "menu". You can't slap truffles on a soup like but yet raw risotto & call it fine dining! The ambiance & view are incredible but it's NYC & there's plenty of striking views & vantage points to be found. The staff are all wonderful & courteous & actually made our night more palatable & if course my dear companion! read more

Should have looked at yelp before I came and would have seen the 3 stars. The atmosphere and appetizers were great but the main course came out cold the first time. Then everything was lacking in flavor, the sauce tasted like it was out of a jar and the meat like it had been sitting all day. Unless you are just coming for apps and a drink would find someplace else. read more

Came in with the whole family - we had 8 total. We had no reservation, we just were in to see the Eataly store. Explained the situation (they were pretty full) and they were very attentive. When it was time to be seated, they gave us a corner table surrounded by windows. Great view! Service was also very attentive from start to finish. We had a few bottles of wine that were great, I forgot what they were. Appetizers: Carpaccio di Polipo (octopus) - tender and tasty Treccia di Buffala (mozzarella, tomato, etc) - awesome (we ordered a few of each) Dinner: Tagliatella Al Ragu - great meat sauce Parmigiana di Melanzane - awesome eggplant Veal Saltimbocca - flavorful and tender NY Strip Steak - cook perfectly Branzino - flavorful and tender Gnocchi - very light and tasty Penne Alla Vodka (they made it off menu) - fantastic Tomahawk Steak --- this was the bad dish. Steak had an odd taste. Very gamey. No one liked it. Do NOT order this dish. UGH. They gladly took it back without any questions. We didn't have room for dessert. Overall a great experience and I would definitely go back. Service was very attentive and got the food out at a very respectful pace. read more

Cute place to enjoy Restaurant Week lunch with co-workeres in the Fi Di area on the third floor with a sweeping view. Meat ball appetizer was like a meal! Fish on bed of kale was also delish. Nice bread, olive oil and lively atmosphere. However, you need a guide to find your way through the Eataly maze (drop crumbs behind you?). read more

Ate here during nyc restaurant week. Was disappointed by the taste and amount of food. Pros: - personnel: Kind staff 5* - environment: floor to ceiling windows, lots of light Cons: - food taste was ok nothing exceptional - ordered the calamari and got 4 small pieces and a green salad. Definitely not enough as a plate. The carpaccio starter was ok - my wife ordered pasta and it was ok Nothing exceptional - we will not go back as we like to eat a normal amount of food read more

Hahahah what a joke! Came for restaurant week on a Sunday for lunch and the eggplant dish was smaller than the size of my fist. Three small eggplant slices between cheese as a secondini. This was smaller than an appetizer portion. I asked about the small portion and they said it was because of restaurant week. I've dined at many restaurants for restaurant week and they don't skimp on the food because you're getting a known deal. What a disappointment! I feel like I got punked. They should be embarrassed read more

Tucked away in a private corner of Eataly, is Osteria Della Pace. While the atmosphere feels upscale, the food is lacking. I chose this place to bring out-of-town relatives for sit-down dinner after visiting the World Trade observatory. Unfortunately, my guests were not impressed. Even though portions were small, my guests barely ate half of their food. Three of us ordered a seafood de mare pasta dish. Unlike other restaurants where large shrimp, mussels, and scallops typically accompany your pasta in this dish, this place chops up the seafood into tiny pieces and cooks it into the sauce. While there was a depth of flavor in the pasta and sauce, it was disappointing not to have actual pieces of seafood. The pasta was VERY al dente, to the point where it tasted undercooked and slightly crunchy. Our server said that is the way this pasta is cooked. We also ordered a cheese and meat appetizer, which included prosciutto and Brie and other meats and cheeses. The meats were extremely salty. I had to wrap it in the complimentary bread and cover the meat with the accompanying honey to make it edible. Not everything was a miss. The lamb chops were good and the pasta Ragu was was typical. It was pricey, about $400 for 5 pasta dishes,1 lamb chop dish + 2 appetizers. read more

So disappointed! I just moved to Fidi and was so happy to have an Eatly in walking distance from my apartment. Eatly itself is amazing. Just like the flat iron location. This particular restaurant falls flat. It's located on the top corner of Eatly. Really gorgeous spacious restaurant with good views. A hidden gem. However, it stops there. Everything from service to food just falls flat. For 1, they are stingy about bread. Literally give you exact # of pieces for the # of people sitting there. Then the olive oil pour is beyond stingy. I guess it's nice to have your waiter give you portion control and carb watch, but thanks we can do that on our own. App wise, the buffalo mozzarella and fried calamari are good. Nice portion and fresh ingredients. The entree pastas, are just okay. Our table got the gnocchi, ravioli, and spaghetti. Probably the best out of the three was the gnocchi. The pastas are all cooked al dente so, if that's not your style beware. The spaghetti was tasteless and the ravioli was okay, but none of us devoured it. All in all it's okay, but for the price you are expecting more. Without drinks our two apps and three dishes ended up being around 150.00. Not terrible, but not a memorable place. Next time, I'll head to the pizza maker in the front or the fish guy. read more

The only benefit to eating here is that you won't have a wait. That's about it. Our fettuccine clams were under cooked, and they said it would take 14 minutes to cook a new one, or to cook the same dish a little longer. My friend ended up just going without. My pasta was also WAY too al dente, almost crunchy. There was never enough water for the table and service nearly non-existence. Oh, and if you happen to be there when it's sunny? Be prepared to feel the heat come through the windows, they didn't even have sheer curtains to offset some of the suns strong rays. Go to La Pizza La Pasta. You'll get a far better meal, even with the wait. read more

I booked my wife and I reservations to this place after doing some research online for nearby Italian restaurants. I will say that the service is excellent. As I expect from a nicer restaurant. However, my dish which was the Passatelli di Mare was an ok dish. The mussels were the size of my thumbnail which didn't end up being very filling and was slightly disappointed. My wife's dish was spectacular and very flavorful which was the Tagliatelle al Ragu. We'll definitely be back to try new items on the menu. By the way, we came here to celebrate my wife's birthday and were very accommodating which made her night. read more

Beautiful view, beautiful food, and beautiful service. I believe maybe the manager was waiting on us on a very busy Friday afternoon. We are from out of town and she gave us tons of suggestions for other tasty places as well. The food was delicious. They bring you three different types of bread and then we ordered the panzanella, I think that's what it's called???, LOL....then split an amazing pasta dish with the roasted potatoes. Carb overload but totally worth it. Would love to go back. read more

I stopped in here around lunchtime one weekday. I didn't have a reservation and was offered a seat at the bar. Totally fine with me but it did seem a bit odd since almost no one was dining in there even by the time I left. The bartender was excellent- both knowledgeable and attentive. I had a burrata plate and seared scallops, both of which were fantastic. The white wine I had (can't remember what it was but similar to a Riesling) was delicious. I just really enjoyed the meal, ambiance and will most definitely be back. It seems like a lovely place for an evening meal. read more

What a great restaurant addition to the neighborhood. The restaurant is nestled within Eataly past the pasta and pizza stations. The dining area has floor to ceiling windows overlooking the beautiful financial district. Tables aren't too cramped but it does get very loud. Their bread board is delicious. It comes with 4 different homemade breads with olive oil from the campania region of Italy. We started with the panelle which is deep fried chickpea dough topped with escarole and ricotta cheese. You can really taste the chickpea. I got the linguine ai ricci. It was extremely creamy with soft pieces of sea urchin. The pasta was cooked perfectly with a little kick from red pepper flakes and a nice crunch from the focaccia bread crumbs that helps balance the richness of the dish. It is definitely an indulgent dish I recommend. The hub got the maialino which was soooo tender. It had a very nice marinade. It only comes with 1 piece of grilled eggplant for the 2 good size portions of pork though. Really great dishes packed with flavor and well balanced. We definitely will be returning. Service was on point. Hub's water glass had a chip so after telling the server, she brought us another bottle of sparkling water on the house. My only suggestion is to update the music. It was like 80s or 90s pop background music. Something more soothing would have been nice. read more

I should have listened to the mediocre reviews! My thinking was, any place inside Eataly has to be pretty good, right? Sadly, wrong. The service was borderline surly. They forgot to bring out drinks. The bread was stale. And the food was pretty terrible honestly. My seafood pasta was bland and tasteless with bizarre rough-textured noodles that were overcooked. My friends' pasta was also overcooked and bland. Extremely expensive, bad food, poor service. I won't be back! read more

Should have done better research before we made a reservation at this restaurant in Eataly, as the below reviews hit the nail on head. Only pros are the views and the lack of wait time. But even regarding that, when we made the reservation we were told no later than 7:30 was available, then when one party member arrived he told them 2 of us were running late and was told it wasn't a problem, they say that on the phone to make the restaurant seem busier... there were several open tables. They also didn't give us a window seat when there were plenty available For a starter we got formaggi - 3 choices of cheese. Very tiny portions. Tagliatelle al ragù dinner pasta was pretty awful- could have come out of a can. Spaghetti "cacio e pepe" was a good vegetarian option for one of the girls, but it was just okay and really nothing to rave about. Other person got a salad which was again, standard. All in all, $140 + tip for 2 pasta dishes, a salad, and a bottle of wine was not worth it. Would not return. read more

My wife and I love to visit this place around the holidays. I would go as far as saying that Osteria is the best place to be around the holidays, as the staff is what I refer to as "Italian Friendly", they always make you feel welcome, and treat you like family. The staff is very friendly, as the bar tender Jason is the perfect bar tender, and has great recommendations. Although we've been here for dinner a couple of times, we prefer to order a couple of appetizers and split a bottle of wine. They have an excellent selection of wine, including Silver Oak, Stags Leap, and Opus One. On our last trip to Osteria, we tried the Calamari in a hot sauce, I believe it's called the Diablo. We joked that we're indian and although we're used to spicy food, the Calamari was the spiciest Italian dish we'd eaten in the US, and Italy. We met the owner on our last visit, Nelly. I love knowing that our money goes to a good family run business, who treats their staff right, as opposed to a big chain. read more

I was really between 3 and 4 stars for Osteria della Pace. I fell in love with the restaurant immediately. The service is fantastic and the menu is so appetizing that you want to order everything on it. I really wanted to give it 4 stars, but the food needs to step up its game. I will definitely be going back to try more of the menu, and I did really love this place, but in good conscience I had to give a fair rating for you readers out there, the food did not deserve more than 3 stars. Appetizers: -Sgombro (Mackerel crudo) - This dish was unbearable. I had one bite and couldn't stomach another, very fishy and the flavors weren't working at all -On special they had a "bread stew" with burrata. The stew had really confusing flavors, you couldn't eat it on its own really. If you spread it on bread it tasted good, but we didn't want to fill up on bread in the appetizer course. The ratio of burrata to stew was off as well, needed much more burrata Entrees: -Tortelli stuffed with braised oxtail - this has the foundation to be a really delicious dish if executed better. The flavors are there, but the filling for the tortelli is so mushy that it is off-putting to eat. The pasta itself might have been overcooked or rolled too thin because the tortelli was coming apart before i even put a fork in it. The flavors were there, just many flaws in the execution. Do something about that mushy filling, seems like the meat was blended until it almost liquefied. blegh. -On special they had agnolotti with shaved truffle. This dish was almost perfection - they just forgot the salt! This should have been a homerun dish, the lack of seasoning made it borderline bland, a little bit of salt would have gone a long way. I still loved the dish, I just wished for that dash of salt. Our waiter was fantastic, the atmosphere is perfect, and overall this place has a lot of potential to be great. I think based on my experience as well as the other reviews on Yelp the owners just need to have a talk to the chefs about dish execution to get this restaurant headed in the right direction. Almost there, just step up the food game. I will be back for more of Osteria, and I hope this feedback is taken into consideration for some positive changes. read more

I was so disappointed in Osteria della Pace, in part because I've eaten at other Eataly restaurants both at this location and at the Flatiron location, and I've always been very happy -- sometimes even absolutely delighted -- with the food. So I figured since this was supposed to be their nicer restaurant in the downtown location the food would be stellar. Not so. My appetizer - the fried polenta - was super oily, over fried and just not tasty. The poached Atlantic cod was overcooked and just meh. The celery root puree was delicious, but it's puree and should not be the star of an otherwise mediocre dish. Maybe I ordered poorly? It just wasn't at the level of what I'm used to eating at an Eataly restaurant. I'm the mom of a toddler. I get maybe one night out every few weeks to have dinner with friends and I'm sorry I spent the evening here. Service was fine, atmosphere was nice, so there's that, but it's definitely not worth the money or time. read more
