Top 5 Pasta Shops in New York City

455 Hudson St, New York, NY 10014, United States

“It was our second time visiting Osteria Carlina WV location and we were blown away by the dishes we had! Can’t recommend enough for the porcini pasta dish. We tried the Piemonte style beef tartare for the first time and it was amazing! 5/5 review for this one! It’s a special place in Manhattan for us and we will go back!”

“A nice Italian restaurant, surprisingly well priced for the area that it is in. The portions are slightly less than an average American portion. The wait staff are all so fun and friendly and will make up for any short service. They are …”

“Tasty Italian Italians food right next to Bryant Park. We went here for dinner on a weeknight and it was very easy to get a last minute reservation, which was very convenient. I like it because it serves classic pasta dishes but also lighter options like salads, that are not just the typical boring salad. This location is also very cute, I’ve been here multiple times and it never disappoints. If you like the taste of Nutella, I highly recommend the chocolate hazelnut boudino. It’s sweet and chocolatey without being too heavy. Great to share!”

“this place is an 11. what do i mean that? I mean its food -- from bread to profideroles -- made me laugh. I had to laugh because it was absurd that these tastes existed. And even more absurd that I'd never tasted those tastes before. I am filled with gluten. I am also filled with hope. Hope that other people will stumble across this magnificent, uncut italian gem. I don't need anything else to happen in my life. I'm good now.”

“River Deli is the cutest little Italian restaurant tucked away on a quiet street in Brooklyn Heights. They specialize in Sardinian cuisine. Everything was quite delicious. Sadly, our experience was tainted at the end of the meal after a rude encounter with one of the staff there. He yelled at me when I took my camera out and kicked me out of the restaurant.”

9 E 17th St, New York, NY 10003, United States

“Oh My God, if I could give a higher rating, I would. This place was so incredible! The pasta was perfectly made. The drinks were tasty and delicious. Overall a very enjoyable dinning experience. By far the best meal from our weekend away in the city.”

“My recent experience at Rosemary's East in New York was nothing short of delightful. From the moment we stepped in, the excellent customer service stood out. The staff was attentive, friendly, and went out of their way to make our dining experience special. The atmosphere at Rosemary's East is perfect for a relaxing dinner. The cozy ambiance, dim lighting, and tasteful decor create a welcoming environment that's conducive to enjoyable conversations. What truly impressed me was their commitment to catering to diverse dietary preferences. We had a vegan friend with us, and they were overjoyed to find a variety of delectable vegan options on the menu. The dishes not only looked appealing but also tasted fantastic, proving that Rosemary's East takes its vegan offerings seriously. Overall, I highly recommend Rosemary's East for anyone seeking a memorable dining experience. The excellent customer service, inviting ambiance, and thoughtfully crafted vegan options make it a top choice for a satisfying meal in New York City. We left with smiles on our faces and plans to return soon.”

“I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE! The head Chef is so damn serious about food! THAT, is clear in the way he treats the ingredients. Once I ordered food, and since they’re familiar with me (as a frequent visitor 😂) He waited for me to arrive to prepare the food fresh for me. I FELT LIKE A KING! That small detail can make a customer’s day! I’ve had the Octopus (multiple times), the branzino, and the Pappardelle Integrale (at least 6 times). There’s never been a time that I’ve been disappointed with the food. I have devoured every dish I’ve ever ordered from DELL’ANIMA.”

“The pasta at La Pecora Bianca blew me and my friend away. We got the rigatoni and the gargenelli mushroom pasta. Both dishes were packed full of flavor and the pasta was al dente with a wonderful bite to it. However I would def skip the tiramisu, calmari and drinks next time as they were subpar. But I would definitely be back for the pasta!”

24 Minetta Ln, New York, NY 10012, United States

“Absolutely amazing, one of the top Italian places in the city for sure. I’ve been here twice in the past month and has booked my next reservation already. If you want to show your friends what a top restaurant in nyc is like, you should bring them here. Both the roasted oysters and the octopus carpaccio are outstanding for appetizers. For pasta, the lamb neck Agnolotti is a must-try if it’s your first time here. If you have the room to order more, give the duck ragu Pappardelle a try and it won’t disappoint you. For the main plates, about to tail might be one of the best options. The desserts selection could be better, but overall the menu and the quality of the food is perfect enough. The amount of food is also generous for the price - I’ve been to many other restaurants who serve less food for higher prices, and Da Toscano is definitely not one of them.”

“We celebrated at Cellini’s following a successful surprise engagement with family and friends. The private dining space was absolutely perfect for our large group. The service was incredible. There are so many delicious choices from the menu including a wonderful seafood risotto which is my particular favorite. I wish I captured more photos but please try Cellini for yourself when you have the chance!”

621 Hudson St, New York, NY 10014, United States

“The ambiance here was nice and cozy. I got the gnocchi bolognese with a garlic bread appetizer and a tiramisu cake. The garlic bread and tiramisu cake were both very delicious. The gnocchi bolognese was good too but it tasted like it needed more salt. Portion size was big. It took a while for me to get the check and my dessert, but I won’t fault them too much since it was a Saturday night. The waitress was very friendly and personal. We had a nice chat after my meal about the best way to heat up my garlic bread leftovers and my home state North Carolina.”

9 Stanton St, New York, NY 10002, United States

“The food and service here truly is great, but it should be a crime for a small pasta dish to be over $30, which all but one of their primi menu section is. All of the dishes were pretty small, to be honest. I understand that gratuity is built into the overall price of the meal (props to you for that), but come on. It’s pasta. This turned into a $120+ pp meal and we still left a little hungry. That being said, the short rib agnolotti, pici and crudo were the standouts from our order. Wine menu also had great selections.”

359 Columbus Ave, New York, NY 10024, United States

“Honestly going in I thought this place would be a tourist trap but was pleasantly surprised by the food. Really tasty fluffy whipped ricotta toast. Pasta was well cooked and although I’m team red sauce, the olive oil base was really tasty. A little pricey but what can you expect on the upper west side next to the Natural History Museum. IMO this place deserves a higher rating than 4.3, it’s more like a 4.6”

202 E 42nd St, New York, NY 10017, United States

“Great Array of food and beverage options on the healthier and tasty side of choices. My only complaint was the lack of accommodation for Vegan substitutions to the smoothies or any sandwiches. Which was explained for the sandwiches as they're pre-made so they can simply remove the ingredient but not be made fresh. The atmosphere is beautiful and welcoming. Indoor and Outdoor dining spaces are well laid out. Would definitely recommend or visit again for a more relaxed Dine to experience more of the menu. The Caprese Sandwich I had was AMAZING.”

“I ate here for the first time as I ordered appetizers and entrees. One of the appetizers was not as good as I expected so that is why I didn't give it 5 stars. Overall I enjoyed the main dish and the service. I would look to try this place again to see if the appetizer that I ordered tastes better the next time.”
