The 27 Best Italian Restaurants In New York City - New York - The Infatuation

"Borgo is a seasonal restaurant in Nomad from the team behind Brooklyn spots like Diner and Roman’s, but it’s a lot less neighborhoody than its predecessors. The giant restaurant has impressively spaced-out tables and flickering taper candles to set the mood. It's classy without being stuffy, familiar but still inventive, and a good place to save for a special occasion. Focus on the rotating pastas like a chitarra integrale with manila clams and bottarga, and order that second bottle of wine." - bryan kim, neha talreja, willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, tiffany yannetta
