Very good. Old school. Fresh. Authentic. Only a few tables. You can tell everything is cooked with love.

The absolute best of the best. You will not find more authentic Italian food anywhere in Westchester. Other restaurants might be good, but eating at Spadaro will transport you back to Rome! Rina and Antonio couldn't be more gracious and welcoming! Go, Go, Go!!! read more

This is the best Italian on this side of the Atlantic. Caccio e Pepe is perfect, as good as in Rome. ALL the food is fantastic. It's a tiny place so make a reservation. From start to finish you won't be disappointed. Oh and the wine list is excellent and service is wonderful. read more

Cozy Old School Italian restaurant. No menus, which was cool, good amount of options, but also no prices....so beware if you are trying to stick to a budget. It's not cheap, on the higher end for sure. Food and service was good! We had the eggplant with pistachios and meatballs for appetizer, the eggplant was really good , unconventional but delicious, the meatballs, not special at all, wouldn't order again, normal everyday meatballs. I had oso bucco and my wife had pasta with shrimp special. The oso bucco was very tasty and my wife enjoyed her pasta. read more

This was my first visit, along with eight others for our monthly wine group dinner. The restaurant is located at the end of a small strip mall and had been recently expanded, providing for a more open and casual vibe. One of the members of our group is a regular here and this was a showcase event for him...he had warned us that "Rena likes to feed people". This was a spot-on prediction. I spent a few minutes speaking with Rena, the owner (along with her husband who is the chef) and learned of her move from Rome with her children (who now work in the dining room and at a sister restaurant. A remarkably warm and kind lady. She was excited to host and had set the table perfectly for us..extra wine glasses, classy "dump" pitchers, a side table for the ten wines and ice bucket for the white starter and Vin Santo for dessert. Theme was Produttori Barbaresco with focus on single vineyard Riservas from 1967 to 2011. There followed an onslaught of fabulous food, in order: cold antipasto with fresh burrata, bruschetta with fresh tomatoes, grilled octopus, eggplant in a pistachio cream sauce, spaghetti in a light parmesan over which we shaved a 2oz fresh black truffle, wild boar ragu pappardelle, grilled strips of meat and grilled baby lamb chops...we were forced to halt the fish course to Rena's disappointment. Dessert was an amazingly light multi-layer pastry with a pistachio cream that killed with the dessert wine. So stuffed I had to drive from the back seat! An amazing time, great dinner and will be sure to return for a smaller stuffing! Bravo! read more

I have passed this pls e a million times. Finally friends we were meeting for dinner suggested Spadaro. We had 7:45 reservations, the restaurant was busy. When you first walk in, there's a little market, you can purchase pastas etc. we were seated in the other room. They started us out with an outrageous Italian bread that was toasted and drizzled with olive oil on it. And then a garlic clove was there to spread on top of it. We started with drinks, and 3 appetizers. We had: meat balls, rice balls, and an amazing eggplant. Then we had cod, salmon and the branzino! Spinach and mushrooms were side orders. We ordered 2 deserts to taste. They were made in house and excellent. One was a pistachio cake, the other was a Nutella. Both were great. Service was on point. They were busy, but the servers were on top of it! Can't believe I never stopped in here before!! read more

absolutely amazing! The place has a very homey feel to it. Highly recommend! The food is phenomenal, the owners are very sweet!

Food was fantastic! Reina was outstanding, so courteous, made us feel at home for our dinner celebration. Would definitely recommend and will be going back again for sure read more

Wow! I've seen this place countless times on my trips up and down Main St. in New Rochelle but it was not until one of my ex-students suggested an unofficial "reunion" dinner there that I visited this gem! No menu! They tell you what's fresh as far as meats, vegetables and fish are concerned and then you tell them how you want it cooked --- the skies the limit. Confused? Not to worry. Rina (our host) will you coach you (as she coached us) through the process and makes spot-on recommendations. We were a party of six. We started with a few appetizers to share amongst us --- an eggplant parmigiana with a pistachio-based sauce that caused one of us to order a take-out dish for his wife, an order of meatballs, fried octopus (never had it but glad I tried it), a fried cauliflower-mash with a great sauce. For dinner we each ordered separately --- a whole-fish branzino (fileted in the kitchen), a salmon dish, a chicken parmigiana, a veal marsala (me), a veal parmigiana and a veal pizzaiola, A family-style rigatoni with ground sausage served as our pasta and each of us ordered a vegetable of some type (Broccoli Rabe was a favorite). Red wine complemented the dinner. No way we could make room for desserts but we did have some coffee/espresso/cappuccino and some Limoncello for a after-dinner cordial. [I took home a cannoli and I wish I had taken home a half-dozen.] Antonio (Rina's husband) is a wizard in the kitchen, cooking all our meals. Irina, our waitress, was superb, and of course Rina (our host) was fantastic; treated us like family. This is my new go-to place on my next visit to the NYC area. [I live in Michigan.] read more

A small Italian restaurant, tastes very authentic, possibly the best Italian restaurant I've been too outside of Italy. Lamb Ragu and spaghetti carbonara was amazing, for apps we got meatballs, eggplant in pistachio creme and fried stuffed zucchini, all great. The service was also great being very friendly and tips on what to get. read more

I never leave reviews for restaurants, but Spadaro's deserves it. Some of the best Italian food I have ever had in my life, and I am born and raised in New York. There is no menu, which I LOVED and every dish was better than the next. If you live in Westchester and are looking for authentic Italian cuisine, go to Spadaro's! read more

Always a special meal at Spadaro. Fresh ingredients and a personal touch. They reduced the size of the restaurant to go back to the small intimate setting which I actually prefer. No need for menus as every day has a new menu with a few of the old standby's available every meal. A must have is their eggplant appetizer. Never had anything so tender and delicious anywhere....even in Italy. Their meatball appetizer is also awesome. Everything including the garlic bread they start you with is always top notch. read more

This was one of the best dining experiences my husband and I had in a long time and who knew it was right in our beautiful hometown of New Rochelle! We were greeted by the owner, Rena, who welcomed us as if we were in her home. She was so kind and gracious, we honestly felt like old friends! Since it was our first time, we asked for her recommendations. She and her husband, who is the talented chef, are originally from Rome. She recommended the porterhouse steak for two and half portions of pasta plus a pistachio cream eggplant wonder for appetizer. Everything was cooked to perfection. The appetizer was so delicious with the unexpected pairing of that tender eggplant and pistachio crema, oh my goodness, it literally melted in my mouth. Then we moved to the pasta carbonara, silky ribbons of homemade pasta dancing in a rich cream sauce that wasn't too eggy or cheesy just perfect, probably the closest thing to the one we had in Rome last spring. The steak was cooked to perfection, nice tender cut of aged beef that sizzled nicely as butter and juices flowed down the side. We were pretty full by then with leftovers to take home but couldn't resist dessert. We ended the night with her famous white tiramisu and cappuccino, worth every damn calorie! Honestly I felt for those few hours I was transported back to Europe, from the delicious food, the attentive service and the graciousness of our host, all I wanted to do was book my next dinner! Can't wait to go again!!! read more

This place is the true definition of a "Family Restaurant". Husband & wife run it, both are very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about authentic Italian food, and on top of that they are very friendly, funny and welcoming. The Rigatoni lamb ragu, meatballs, and rigatoni angus beef were absolutely amazing. Both the cheesecake & tiramisu (made in house) were really good. They have a big wine selection as well. I highly recommend this restaurant for a great time with good food & excellent service. read more

The best! And the owners are so sweet. The tiramisu is outstanding both regular and the white tiramisu wow!

Unfortunate location, spectacular authentic Roman food. The people who work here are LOVELY, and the owner is a delight. Her husband ( Antonio) is the chef ( he is from Rome) and she ( Rena) is the dessert maker! We had charcuterie with porcetta, salami, barata and prosciutto sticks that were like twizzlers. lol A lovely bottle of wine , suggested by our server, Ilena. Eggplant in a pistachio cream sauce that was exquisite and paperedele with wild boar in a red sauce that was outstanding.Then- the most amazing pistachio cake, and a white tiramisu, made without coffee, with berries Wow! Increible! I highly recommend this place and I suspect we'll be regulars. By all accounts - reviews and regulars that were there this evening " you cant get closer to authentic Italian unless you go to Italy" and I totally believe it. read more

I just got back from Italy and was still craving Italian cuisine! The Spadaro kitchen crushed all expectations! The most delicious food! Great service, the most friendly staff and I will be back! Just like in the finest Rime restaurants! read more

Oh my gosh, the best Italian restaurant I know. We periodic this place only because we're so far away; I would go here more often if I could. There's no menu. Chef goes to the market in the morning and gets what can be made fresh. When you arrive they tell you what they can make you. Last night I had pasta with mushrooms, sausage, tomatoes in its natural sauce. My God was it delicious. You need to put this on your bucket list if you haven't eaten here. read more

Great meal on New Year's Eve! Small, cozy, authentic restaurant handled our group of 10 beautifully with good service and delicious food.

We had such a great meal and experience here last night. From the moment you walk in, you're treated as family. As other reviews have mentioned, it's run by a husband (chef) and wife (server) team. There's no printed menu--she just comes over and tells you what they have for each course at a time. She also asks what you like and tries to tailor the meal to your interests! (If you're nervous about not having a printed menu, you can always look at the online ordering menu in advance to get a sense of the range of options) We can't wait to go back! read more

Food was fresh an indubitably bussin. Grilled octopus 10/10. Meatball was the best I've ever had, and fish was outstanding.

Excellent local restaurant. Small but cozy. No written menu but many choices. The eggplant with pistachio cream is amazing! The owner is the chefThe wines are from Italy. Irene and Rena are incredible waitresses. A really unique experience. read more

I love love love this place. Absolutely everything is fresh and wonderful, and you are always greeted like family. A very special dining experience. I always have a million special requests and they gladly accommodate them all -- they truly want to make you happy. Thank you Antonio and Rita for your warm welcome and delicious food! read more

Delicious delicious home cooked authentic Italian food. I regret I didn't know about Spadaro years earlier!

Very close to me and finally paid a visit on weekend noon. Great place for brunch/ lunch as it might be too much for dinner as we think. We made a good choice. The food portion was large and it's full of meat.... lol Great service - the waitress introduced much on the menu to us and made many recommendations too. The food in general was nice. Eggplant was yummy and beef was good too. We didn't finish all and took out some in the end. This is not a cheap place and the price is average. We plan to stop by another time soon. read more

Everything was fresh and delicious. Service was excellent, definitely a repeat performance.

The food is absolutely amazing, we drove up from Virginia to purchase a vehicle and luckily this restaurant was across the street. I did do some search but as soon as I saw the Linguine vongole I didn't need to look any further. The owners are so sweet and welcoming made us feel like we've been loyal customers. We will absolutely be returning one day soon. read more

Went here with my family and friends to celebrate my boys' b-day. I understand the restaurant bought add'l space, so it had a lot of room. We had the antipasto and burrata for appetizer, and had parmigiana, cavatelli arugula, pappar bscagiola, fruitti di mare and linguini w/ clam sauce. I thought the overall food was good. I also did consider the prices kind of high, over $20 for most entrees, which is hard to believe for this area of New Rochelle. Though the servings are supposed to be family style, I would say the $64 for the frutti di mare was probably not worth the price. If you stick with the Italian basics, antipasto for appetizer and pastas for dinner, it is probably the more reasonable way to go. Overall, service was fine, though I was there early so the restaurant wasn't too busy. When I asked for a wine recommendation, the server went straight for the most expensive bottles versus what i was looking for, which was medium dry wine. At least he deferred me to someone, I believe the owner's wife, who was able to give me a better recommendation. read more
