Scarpetta

Fantastic restaurant! Thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor seating which was beautifully put together. It didn’t feel too close to the street. The bread was fresh and warm. The cauliflower was really tasty and the roasted carrots were full of flavour. My fellow diners also enjoyed their pasta dishes and mentioned that they were cooked perfectly. Service staff were friendly, conversational and efficient. Look forward to visiting again.

There is always a crowd here and I heard a lot of things about this place so was worried that there was some hype. However, I was impressed by the quality of the food. We started with cocktails that were definitely on the sweeter side. The bread they give is really filling in itself. The portions are small so we did ask for another bread basket which they gladly refilled. Service was attentive considering the restaurant is so big. I didn’t care too much for the scallops or beet salad but the short rib agnolotti is a must get. So delicious. The cod was not bad as a lighter dish. I would definitely come back to try the other plates.

After reading terrible reviews about the service my husband and I were nervous about coming. Happy to report that the service was absolutely outstanding. Our waiter Niko was great & the manager Armando as well. The food was great - loved the spaghetti and the short rib pasta. Don’t sleep on the yellowtail appetizer. Must try in NYC!

overall our experience was awesome! Food was incredible, staff was friendly and other than the price, wouldn’t change a thing. Even the bread was delicious. Recommend the black cod and the polenta appetizer

This was such a big hit or miss. The short rib & bone marrow agnolotti rocked! The warm bread basket was one of the best starter bread selections I’ve had in NYC. The rest of our order was good but not memorable. We arrived on time for our reservation but had to stand waiting awkwardly for another nearly 40 mins for our table, especially since we didn’t want to drink prior to our meal. After nearly 40 mins, we felt so uncomfortable that we basically let them know that if the table isn’t ready in 10, we would be taking our business elsewhere. It definitely took a toll on the overall experience. Not great enough service for us to consider returning.

Fantastic service! Absolutely fantastic!!! The food and drinks were excellent and they had several non-alcoholic options as well. They are bigger portions so be ready for that. Will definitely be coming back!

I went for a birthday dinner (definitely make reservations) on a Friday night. The portions are small but the setting is upscale. I also went for a client lunch. Would recommend the place!

Best steak I've had at a restaurant all year and probably one of the best I've had period. The duck was also strong. The polenta and lava cake are also worth trying. Super friendly staff and swift bartenders. Fantastic venue for a lively polished evening.
