Absolutely fabulous meal, service, and special cocktails......our favorite place in NYC!!! Thank You again for an outstanding Birthday! James Rohan read more

This was my first time here and I had a pleasant experience. My friend made a reservation for us so we were seated promptly. We got: - lychee sgroppino: I liked this! Refreshing not too sweet. - fake tropical: I preferred the lychee drink. This was a little too sweet for me - smoky mango - charred octopus: I really enjoyed this since it wasn't too chewy (unlike some other places). - MILANESE VEAL CHOP: we chose to get this over the branzino and we felt this was the better choice. It came with arugula that was a nice complement - broccolini: this was good! Nothing outstanding but solid - arcanciata trifle: this was a nice refreshing dessert. The server came over and presented it in a nice way. Not my favorite but it was good. read more

Has been on my list for a while, lucked out getting a table, though they do get busy so recommend making a reservation, or plan to eat in the bar area. Complimentary breads and spreads to start, small plates good for sharing. Italian riff on a negroni was very tasty. Burrata and charred octopus small plates were super tasty. Market green salad is a good-sized pile of fresh greens with a nice light dressing. I also loved the broccolini side, though would pass on the cauliflower. Cappellaccio, pasta stuffed with the cacio e pepe sauce is a fun twist on the traditional presentation- rich and best for sharing. I didn't love that our server pressured us into ordering more than we needed and we definitely felt rushed. Staff tried to clear plates between courses before we were done and hovered near the tables while we were finishing the meal. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Maybe if you come earlier or sit in the bar it's less of an issue?[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Still a good option if you want to split a few quick plates with friends before heading elsewhere. read more

I love scarpetta. Food is consistently excellent...they also host some very nice wine nights/wine classes. I love going there also to sit at the bar and try their espresso martinis, [[HIGHLIGHT]]ambience is romantic[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and service is exceptional. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The food was good, the ambiance was decent, the service - I'd say half of the team dedicated to our party of three that night - was great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Here's the thing - we were here to celebrate an award I'd received, but I honestly would have been good with a more casual experience, less fussy menu and a quieter dining room to actually have the conversations without having to shout or lean way into the person speaking. But my boss insisted - bless her - that we needed something special to celebrate, so here we are. At least we didn't have to travel far, since we were staying at the Nomad for this trip. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were shown to our table right away, in the overcrowded and very loud dining room.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We had two main servers - one that seemed delighted to see us and eager to help, the other that felt a little less welcoming and accommodating. Unfortunately, that waiter was our "main" guy, the one sending our orders back to the kitchen. We decided early on to get a bunch of dishes to share at the table, which was highly encouraged by both waiters. To start, we went with the Yellowtail ($29), which was fresh and light. We also ordered the Charred Octopus ($32) - I was surprised my boss agreed to that one - which was essentially one medium-ish tentacle served over a sauce, with some small roasted potatoes. I liked the flavor and thought the octopus was cooked well. The last Primi dish we ordered was the Braised Short Rib ($29). The meat was perfectly cooked, very tender and juicy. The risotto was a nice accompaniment, but there weren't many seasonal vegetables, as promised by the menu. After a lot of back and forth, we decided to share the Muscovy Duck (essentially a ravioli dish, $62) and a side of the Broccolini ($22) before capping everything off with the Branzino ($89). The duck ravioli came out first, and the presentation was a show. The pasta is made in-house, and you can tell it's fresh and good quality. The filling was quite rich - it also had foie gras in there - and tasted as gamey as you'd expect from a duck dish. The Branzino was flaky and flavorful, though it was a bit hard to parse and serve because of the skin. The broccolini was the surprise stand-out dish of the night, with the brightness from the lemon and the crunch of the almond slices. We made quick work of all the dishes as the team came by to refill drinks (cocktails for my boss and our guest, Nebbiolo by the glass for me) and water. We didn't think we'd order dessert - my boss is not a sweets person and I was already at capacity by then - but then the calls to celebrate started to circulate the table and before I knew it we'd placed an order for the Aranciata Trifle ($25, but the menu says that's for two guests, and they brought out three dishes for the whole table, so not sure if they charged us more for that.) The trifle is made table-side, with the waiter explaining each component as he fills each glass dish before serving. It was cold and soothing - a bit tart, a bit sweet - and the perfect end to a rich and filling meal. read more

Stopped by Scarpetta to check out their menu for the last day of restaurant week! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior is dimly lit and we were seated in the bar area instead of the dining room which was a bit louder than we anticipated.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There were lots of people there for after work drinks and food, so it was lively but loud, which took away from the dining experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I'd recommend asking for the main dining room in the future.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The restaurant week menu was solid with a variety of dishes that were all great. The Stromboli bread was a great starter and the eggplant dip it came with was amazing. The fluke was seasoned well and had some interesting texture with the crispy toppings on it. For entrees our group tried the chicken, spaghetti and the special cavatelli with truffle. The chicken was perfectly cooked as it was extremely tender and moist. It was also served with a crispy spaetzle on the side. Their iconic spaghetti was amazing as always, simple but elegant. The cavatelli special was served with a truffle foam which gave it a nice flavor and the pasta was al dente. For dessert we had the chocolate cake which was good, but would have been better served warm. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall the food was great here but it was just a bit too loud in the bar dining area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

We went last night and were blown away by the food! We had the burrata (5/5) and cacio e pepe ravioli (4/5) to start. I had the spaghetti for my main (5/5) and the trifle (4/5) for dessert. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town! read more

Went to Scarpetta on a Saturday evening with a group for a friend's birthday dinner. Our reservation was at 5pm and the restaurant was packed. There is a small bar near the entrance, and we were seated in the large main dining room at a round table for seven. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The space is beautiful, with elevated decor, lots of texture, and interesting lighting fixtures.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We started with a bottle of white wine and asked the sommelier to recommend something in our $80-90 price range. The selection, a 2019 from Piedmont, was interesting and not exactly my taste, but I appreciated trying something new. Though it was not chilled prior to serving, and I didn't notice either bottle (the table ordered two) in an ice bucket. I instead had two glasses of red (Sangiovese $24, Nebbiolo $21). While there are fewer by-the-glass options, the overall wine list is extremely extensive, with a strong focus on Italian regions and bottles ranging into the thousands, making it a good destination if you are looking to explore higher-end wines. We were served bread to start, then ordered several starters for the table: octopus ($32), market greens salad ($21), chicory ($21), cauliflower ($10), heirloom carrots ($22), and broccolini ($22). The vegetables were good, though nothing particularly stood out and octopus was the highlight. There were seven pasta options, but only one could be made gluten free, which I was not interested in. When I asked the server, there was not much effort to accommodate. I opted for the short rib appetizer ($29), which came as three small strips over risotto. It was delicious, but definitely not a dinner portion, though fine accompanied by all the shared sides. Others at the table ordered various pastas and the halibut entrée ($56). I tried the agnolotti (short rib, bone marrow, horseradish), which was interesting but finished with an overwhelmingly strong horseradish flavor, I could see it being difficult to get through a full bowl. We ordered two desserts, the carrot cake and the chocolate cake, both beautifully presented and a nice way to end the meal. Overall, this is a good choice if you are looking to impress or celebrate and price is not a concern. It is also a good option if you want access to an expansive, high-end wine list. That said, I was not particularly impressed by the pasta offerings, and both the pasta and main courses felt extremely expensive. Service was very attentive throughout. Come here for a high-end dining experience, but in my opinion it's not the place for authentic Italian dishes. read more

We come here every year when we visit NYC. The spaghetti is outstanding: I first got it at their Meatpacking location a few years ago, and was amazed by how good it was. The tomato flavor is really deep, I wouldn't be surprised if they boil their pasta in tomato water from the skins. We get it every year, and it's always amazing. This year, we also got the pumpkin gnocchi and the cavatelli, and they were even better than the spaghetti. The gnocchi had a unique texture and shape; it had a great chew to it. Also the sauce was outstanding: the combination of brown butter and rosemary was rich and savory and paired well with the pieces of pumpkin and the flavor of the gnocchi. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is also always great, especially during the holidays. It's so festive![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Had a nice Italian meal at Scarpetta this past week. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe inside is elevated, intimate and warm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The servers were very kind and attentive with refilling water. We started with a bottle of white wine with scallops. My one negative is that the reasonably priced (under $100 / bottle) wine selections were limited. We were able to find a good Soave we liked, but would suggest that they add a few more options to the menu! The scallops were delicious, but heads up it only comes with 2 scallops (which was a bit surprising given the price of the dish). The pumpkin gnocchi was also quite good - would for sure recommend. The carrot cake was ok, could have probably skipped it. Overall I would recommend Scarpetta for an elevated date night or dinner with family/colleagues. The food is high quality (albeit a bit expensive), and my experience was very positive! read more

I usually never dine at hotel restaurants but I thought I would give this one a try. They rely too much on tourists coming into town and being the default restaurant in the hotel. Food was pretty good but the service ruined the whole experience. I'll keep it simple. 1. We asked to change our seating at the table. Waiter said it was fine and moved the chair to our preference. He left the cutlery, glass and plates in their original place. When we asked if he was going to move the setting over, I sensed a bit of agitation and side eye. Sorry, but it's not my job. 2. Water glass was empty for a long time and we had to ask for service. 3 waited a long time for the main. 4. Paid $$$$320 for 2 people for $$ service (2 cocktails, 1 bottle of wine, then shared octopus, Lobster tortellini and veal Milanese) 5. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They want to give tourists a NYC vibe with the cool music in the dining room which was probably more appropriate for the bar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They provided some compensation and gave us a free dessert for poor service but I was already willing to pay $$$$. No one wants to go out for dinner and pay for poor service. Otherwise I'd simply door dash it and stay home. read more

I had the pleasure of coming to Scarpetta for the first time for a work dinner and loved every second of it. Upon arrival, we were seated at our table even though one of the members from our party was running late and it was appreciated. Martin was our server, he came out with waters right away and told us about the specials. He was super attentive all throughout the dinner. For appetizers, we shared the Seared Scallops, Short Rib and Octopus. They were all very good but the scallop was my favorite. It was so flavorful and cooked perfectly. The short rib was tender. We also shared 2 pasta dishes - the agnolotti and gnocchi. The agnolotti was stuffed with meat and sooo good. For dinner, I had the Muscovy duck. It was excellent. I had the chance to try the porterhouse that my coworkers were sharing and it was delish with the wine we ordered. For dessert, I had the flour-less chocolate cake. I know that not everyone likes a flour-less chocolate cake but wow - it's worth trying. I'll definitely come back again as it's a 10min walk from my office and well - the pasta alone was well worth it! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This restaurant is beautiful and is located inside a hotel, and our waiter was very attentive and charming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The bread service was unique and tasty- I loved the tomato sauce. The food was great: I split the pomodoro pasta and the mushroom pasta with my friend, and both were very fresh and flavorful. The pomodoro was truly excellent and I'd definitely recommend. My other friend enjoyed her agnolotti but found the portion a bit small. While the food was great, it came out within 5 minutes of ordering. The food actually came out before the drinks, which made our experience feel a bit rushed as we waited around 10 minutes for our table. We ended up waiting to eat our food until our drinks came, which were quite potent. We got complimentary biscotti at the end which was sweet and tasty. Overall, I'd recommend this place but the pacing of our meal was subpar for how much the food cost. read more

It was our second time dining there, and we enjoyed it just as much. The menu is quite simple and not particularly enticing at first glance, but once we started our meal, paired with a bottle of wine recommended by the sommelier that complemented our selections perfectly, it turned out to be absolutely delicious. The service was impeccable , and we all had a wonderful time. Highly recommended for a special night out with family and friends. read more

Came for a corporate dinner and forgot I had this spot bookmarked for pasta else I would have ordered more pasta, but was very impressed by all the food nonetheless and glad I got to try a bit of their pasta (which was all so tasty). Ended up getting the steak which was cooked medium rare and done properly (not overcooked as it often is). The lava cake was delicious and I also scarfed down all the desserts despite being stuffed from all the delicious apps. Service was good throughout (tho not sure how this translates over since this was a corporate event) and there was a nice private room for us. The restaurant itself was confusing for me to exit due to the random shop on the same floor before you go up. read more

Visited with a party of 6 to celebrate a birthday. The ambiance is all luxury. An extensive menu and wine list, with a large bar that makes very well balanced drinks. The food was great. The pastas are extremely flavorful, the octopus has a flavor I've never encountered, just amazing. The service is first class with several staff, from the waiter, runner, sommelier and even the manager stopping by the table to ensure we were well taken care of. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambience was beautiful and nicely decorated for the holidays.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server and Sommelier were excellent. Delicious foccacia and sourdough to start. The broccolini were crispy and came out quickly. I had the pumpkin gnocchi which was really yummy but more like an orecchiette than a gnocchi. The sauce was delicious.

listen, this place is an institution and i've been wanting to go forever. that being said, it was good but i was a bit disappointed. let me explain... friday night with a reservation, the restaurant was crazy crowded and we had to wait maybe only 10 min for our table. not bad, but i heard people complaining after that that they had to wait a looong time even with reservations. perhaps it just happened to be a crazy night. still reservations are a must. the service was great - knowledgeable server, really prompt bussing, and everyone was friendly. no complaints. the food... ok so the main reason we came was for the pasta so we didn't even bother with the other stuff so take that as you will. to be perfectly fair, the flavors of almost all the dishes were spot on and delicious. the spaghetti, as promised, fantastic pomodoro sauce. the pumpkin gnocchi felt like fall in a bowl. the broccolini had a nice char and the potatoes were crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. but - for an upscale italian restaurant, i expected perfectly cooked pasta. the main reason i was disappointed was that nothing was al dente. the spaghetti was straight up soft. the gnocchi had more bite but was strangely dense. the short rib agnolotti had some bite, but was oddly sweet - that's the one dish the flavors were aids for me. i wanted to be fair on all the good - hence the 4 stars but i think 3.5 is more appropriate. maybe they had an off night, but all 3 pastas had something that needed work. read more

I came her to celebrate a friend's birthday and I liked Scarpetta. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was great and the restaurant was beautiful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's perfect for a date night![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered braised short rib, spaghetti, and cappellacci. My favorite dish was the braised short rib. The meat just melted in my mouth and it was seasoned well. It was a smaller dish but it was worth it. Both pastas were great and I didn't have a favorite out of the two. Solid and simple pasta dishes, you can't go wrong. read more

I had an ABSOLUTELY amazing lovely dining experience at this place! I came here with my friend to celebrate birthday and we both loved the overall ambiance (beautiful & calm & modern), all the dishes we ordered, and excellent service (how we were treated like VIP by every staff there). Here is everything we tried (we literally had to eat slow so we could enjoy longer!): 1. SEARED SCALLOPS (7/5) - OMG! SOOO tender! I wish they serve more than two pieces. I would order this every time I decide to go back. Green sauce was really great too. 2. GNOCCHI (6/5) loved the texture of the gnocchi (al dente!). It tasted similar to spaghetti alle Vongole, but much richer. 3. TAGLIOLINI NERO (5/5) - the look of this pasta remind me of tuna tartar. It tasted fresh and unique with subtle spicy kick. Our server mixed the pasta for us! (If you're not a big seafood fan, I would choose other dishes, as it can feel a bit strong.) 4. YOGURT PANNA COTTA (5/5) - This was the perfect desert to end with after eating the full-flavored dishes. The white part tasted like something between a milk pudding and soft whipped cream. Paired so well with peace sorbet. I would LOVE to go back and try other dishes like octopus or fish. This will become my go-to place to celebrate anything special! read more

Service was solid our waiter was friendly and attentive, which isn't something you see too often in NYC anymore. The spaghetti and dessert were the only highlights besides the bread, but the tuna appetizer missed the mark. One of the mains was so salty it was tough to get through, and water refills were slow despite clearly needing them. Might have been an off night, but not the best first impression. read more

I ordered an ink pasta with red sauce. It had some chili oil which I asked f would be spicy. The waitress said it was not too much. Just be aware if you are sensitive to spice. We ordered varied type of entrees. The duck and angolotti with bone marrow were the highlights. Desserts were very good! The seating is spacious. Tables are not on top of one another. read more

What a great weekend brunch place in the city! There are many options available here to cater vegetarian diet. We started off with a complimentary plate of fresh bread along with olive oil and dips. I am a sucker for a good focaccia bread and it did live up to my expectations! The spaghetti was pretty amazing - the tomato sauce was not too tangy and it was perfectly balanced. Such a simple pasta but it had just the right flavor. We all loved pumpkin gnocchi as well - those truffle on the top!!! We also order almond French toast and it was delish! The orange preserve it came with was not too citrusy which I liked. The service is great and the ambiance is pretty cool! read more

Main entree of the prime sirloin and duck were fantastic. The branzino says to share but one person can eat it. The panna cotta was fresh and small but refreshing. read more

Came to Scarpetta for restaurant week and tried some of the most spectacular dishes on the menu. This restaurant is also so beautiful and situated in an ideal part of the city! I ordered the polenta with mushrooms which was so creamy, smooth, and delicious. I wish it had some sort of chili oil component but other than that it was heavenly. The roast chicken was cooked to perfection. A crispy exterior and a moist interior, that chicken was so good. I also had a chance to try the Cacio Pepe ravioli which was so simple but so delicious. The panna cotta was the highlight of the show. It was such a refreshing dessert and it made for the perfect last bite. For $60 per person Scarpetta is definitely a restaurant I would go to during restaurant week if you have the chance. Portions are on the smaller side too so it definitely makes sense to come during a pri fixe. read more

When it comes to Italian food, I feel like I might be missing something because I almost never feel that a few pieces of stuffed pasta warrants a nearly $40 price tag. I'm not at all saying the food isn't tasty, but I find most restaurant portions for Italian food too precious, the flavors a bit muted, and the overall experience always leaves me feeling like I should've spent my money elsewhere, yet these places are absolutely packed all the time. I tried the famous tomato basil spaghetti here. It's fine. I don't get the hype. The other dishes however, pretty tasty! I let my other dining counterparts at the table order the tomato basil pasta which I tried a taste of, but I wanted something heartier for my main and got the stuffed zucchini and squash blossom pasta. It was totally palatable, but I just went back to the photo I took and counted just 9 pieces of pasta, and it left me wanting much more--especially for $34. Yes I supplemented with plenty of appetizers, including the beet salad, charred octopus, creamed polenta, scallop crudo, and while everything was tasty, the portions were too precious and I was still hungry at the end. The place is beautiful, maybe the sort of place folks go for celebratory meals or power business lunches. The wine list was divine and our servers were really on it. So it's a great dining experience outside the portions really. read more

This was a pretty high end Italian spot I went with my coworkers as a belated holiday party. The service was very nice and attentive - carefully coat checking all our things and explaining in detail everything in the menu. The Stromboli bread which I'm pretty sure is their complimentary bread basket was amazing and paired well with their spread combo of butters, marinara(?), and olive oil. Definitely expect to spend at least $20 on appetizers and $35 on mains. I got the agnolotti because I was intrigued with the short rib and bone marrow combination and the waiter said it was her personal favorite. I am very glad I went with the server recommendation because it tasted so amazing! It was literally having juicy, delicious beef infused inside a ravioli lookin pasta. Some other appetizers to complement the agnolotti were the broccolini and the potatoes - I would not recommend the spaghetti though - a bit bland and smaller portion for something that is $36. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall this was a great spot to have an elevated Italian experience with your date or your co workers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I didn't take as many photos as I had wanted to but my experience here was nothing short of spectacular. I had heard great things about this spot and was not disappointed at all. First off, they had a great selection of breads in the beginning, some had some meats, there was focaccia and even a small platter of various toppings and sauces. I opted for the short rib agnolotti and the creamy polenta. I absolutely loved these two dishes and would specifically order the polenta over and over again. It was the perfect balance of richness and creaminess and I just couldn't get enough of it. Our servers were incredible and so patient as my friends and I tried to choose between all the items. This restaurant is on the pricier side so do come prepared to have multiple dishes or share with a group because the dishes are a bit small. Overall, I had a great time here and would definitely return to try some of their other dishes! read more

Really not worth the hype at all. Overpriced. I've had so many tomato pastas that topped this. Really don't recommend

Excellent service--we loved our server! He really went above and beyond and was clearly very passionate about their menu/food. The homemade spaghetti was delicious--homemade noodles, simple but high-quality tomato and basil sauce. Yummy bread for the table of various kinds. Relatively easy to make a reservation here--just if you make a reservation for 2:30 they ask you to come 10-15 mins early because they close at 2:30 pm, so be aware of that! A lovely place to eat lunch or dinner and chat with your people--they are accommodating for groups (we had 6 in ours). read more

Food was great but service was a bit odd. We asked for bottled water, but there must have been some miscommunication since a busser came over and filled our glasses with tap water and they still charged us for bottled water. The table next to us ordered still water as well but they gave them sparkling water and they had to ask to have it changed. It seemed like an issue of too many staff and too little communication among them. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also, our table was extremely wobbly which really shouldn't happen at an upscale restaurant, however the waiter fixed it for us without us asking when he noticed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] As I said the food tasted great but the oysters could have been shucked a bit better as there was shards of shell in nearly every oyster.

I had a really love meal here ages now, that still deserves a 5-star review. Not only was the food delicious but the staff was lovely as well. The duck foie gras ravioli was the star for the show for me. The foie gra is light but pairs with the cream sauce and glaze with a thin pasta casing was perfection. Literally like a soft pillow burst of flavor. I also really loved the bread basket. I haven't seen a bread variety that had melty cheese/salami inside (the 'pizza') and the accompaniment of spread was just so good. The spaghetti reminded me to enjoy the simpler things in life. Something I would not usually order but the noodles were cooked perfectly and the marinara sauce was light, yet you could taste how fresh the tomatoes were and the herb aromatics were there. We genuinely enjoyed everything we tried here! read more

Wow LDV Hospitality.... How can the people who hinge their entire hospitality group on Scarpetta, serve pre-processed Sysco type "olives..." Really? The olives are barely edible. The "blue cheese" has sunken so far down inside the olive because it is dried up from having sat in a jar for years. Tastes just like it came from Italy. - NOT... After having lived in Italy, I can say I would never have been served this anywhere in Italy, and I'm surprised that a brand like scarpetta and LDV is willing to put their name on this, especially at the Maidstone in East Hampton....
