"Unless you live in Bed-Stuy, Macosa Trattoria might be the best Italian restaurant you’ve never been to: a small neighborhood spot that opened last year where it’s still possible to walk in on a Saturday night without a reservation. A friend and I arrived around 10 p.m., too late for the wonderful tiramisu (already sold out), but perfect for a late dinner of carbs and $13 negronis. We shared three pastas priced $16 to $20 a bowl; the best was the bucatini amatriciana ($20), a nice portion of chewy noodles with bits of pork jowl that get better the longer you gnaw on them." - Eater Staff
