West Village, Chelsea & Meatpacking District


Tucked away on a picturesque corner of the Village, this intimate, attractively designed eatery is a favorite on date night. It has a small menu of affordable pastas (from $16), bruschetta and grilled dishes, though you can also come for wine or cocktails and sharing plates, including salumi (cured meat) and cheese boards.
