"Though it's steps from Gramercy Park, an area already brimming with dining choices, Carlotto is a chic and elegant newcomer worthy of attention. It has just the right mix of Southern Italian-American cuisine and impeccable hospitality, where warmly lit interiors and exposed brick walls exude an urban trattoria ambience. The bustling open kitchen in back provides plenty of entertainment. Begin with the beef carpaccio, with tissue-thin slices of beef tenderloin topped with slightly smoky aioli, Burgundy truffle and pecorino. Then, risotto tucked with meaty Alaskan king crab and sweet corn is textbook perfect. Finally, their selection of amari, including vintage varieties, is beyond comprehensive and is a worthy splash in your affogato." - Michelin Inspector

"Carlotto, the sister restaurant to Oceans, offers a regional Italian menu and is designed to feel like a hidden Roman osteria." - Shivani Vora
"What began as a quick stop for cocktails turned into ordering extra bites, and my favorite was the Cantabrian anchovy garlic toast ($14): an umami-packed sliver of anchovy on a hefty squiggle of butter and grilled toast — an absolute steal when marked down to $10 during happy hour." - Eater Staff
"I describe Carlotto as an Italian restaurant from the team behind Vancouver’s Oceans with chef Andy Kitko and a menu featuring items such as burrata, bucatini, and branzino." - Emma Orlow
