A Guide To NYC's Recently Reopened Restaurants - New York - The Infatuation

"What's Different: The first thing you'll think about when you leave this spot from Union Square Hospitality Group is no longer how one gets a key to Gramercy Park. Now located a few blocks north at the bottom of a Nomad hotel, this restaurant has a new name (with the addition of "vicino"), a more romantic setting, and a shorter—but very familiar—menu. Verdict: This place continues to serve the same Roman-style food it was known for, and it's as good as ever. You’ll still be thinking about the spaghettini alle vongole and roasted lamb shoulder the morning after your visit, but you’ll remember the razor-thin slices of veal smothered in tonnato and fried capers for the rest of the year. We liked the old rustic space, but the new dark and candlelit room is no better or worse—just different." - team infatuation
