Rustic spot for whole Roman-style personal pies or slices plus starters & other Italian plates.
"Popular Roman-style pizzeria Mani in Pasta has closed, according to Yelp. A 'store for rent' sign appeared in its window." - Eater Staff
"Chef-owner Giuseppe Manco turns out critically lauded Roman-style pies at this East Village place which debuted at the beginning of 2018. He focuses on Rome’s teglia, a.k.a. pan pizza with an airy crust, made from dough that undergoes a lengthy fermentation period — go for the carbonara version. Pastas and pinsas, or thin flatbreads made from the same dough, are also on offer. The snug, simple space with painted brick walls and exposed bulbs houses a handful of tables; there’s also a Midtown East location with more bare-bones decor, better suited for a takeout slice or two." - Alexandra Ilyashov
"East Village’s five-month-old pizza restaurant Mani in Pasta from chef-owner Giuseppe Manco is apparently already a hit. Manco spent the first part of his career making Neapolitan-style pizzas in Italy and the U.S. before switching to Roman-style pizzas, which he’s now considered a specialist in. Critics at Grub Street note that his pan pizzas are 'terrific,' highlighting the margherita and carbonara versions in particular. The restaurant also serves up Roman pastas and pinsa, flatbreads made with the same dough as the pizzas but pressed thinner." - Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya
"Midtown Italian spot Mani In Pasta has opened a second location in Gramercy, serving pizza, pasta, paninis, and stromboli." - Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya
