The Best Restaurants In The West Village - New York - The Infatuation

"San Sabino excels at Italian-influenced seafood small plates. The limoncello-washed restaurant from the team behind Don Angie loses the red sauce in favor of lemon agrumato oil, bright and spritzy cocktails, and lots of wonderfully prepared sea creatures. Go big on small plates like stuffed mussels with ‘nduja and a swipe of lemon aioli, or a rich crab and mortadella dip served with Ritz crackers and pepper jelly. It still has that patented Don Angie tough table, but you can walk in and sit at the bar and let the surf rock soundtrack wash over you. Reservations are released a week in advance at 9am, but the restaurant welcomes walk-ins at the bar. We lined up outside at 4:30pm on a Thursday, and came back for a bar seat at 7pm." - bryan kim, will hartman, sonal shah, molly fitzpatrick
