Lucky Charlie

The 17 Best New Restaurants In NYC - New York - The Infatuation

"Lucky Charlie would feel at home on our guide to NYC’s old-school Italian restaurants, except that it’s only a few months old. The Bushwick pizzeria is ripped straight from the set of a Scorsese movie, with Frank Sinatra crooning over the caesar salads. It's just that red wine is replaced with Mezzodì spritzes and $11 palomas with Sicilian pink grapefruit juice, and the crisp, bubbly pizza is hard-charred in a 19th-century coal oven. If you come early enough, snag one of six nightly “From the Sea” appetizer sets with shrimp oreganata, clams casino, oysters rockefeller, grilled octopus and more for $39. But don’t worry if you go late—they’re open until 4am, and serve pizza until an hour before close." - Bryan Kim, Molly Fitzpatrick, Willa Moore, Will Hartman, Sonal Shah
