Inventive Italian BYOB with fontina-stuffed meatballs & gnocchi
"After spending a few hundred dollars on seats so the Philadelphia Orchestra doesn’t look like ants, you need a reasonably priced restaurant. And that’s where Mercato, an Italian BYOB, steps in. You can get pasta big enough for two for under $30 (go for the short rib ravioli) and starters like fontina-stuffed meatballs for under $15. If you want a sweet curtain call, get the better-than-average tiramisu and chocolate cake for dessert." - candis mclean
"This intimate Italian spot in Washington Square West offers a menu of solid, reasonably priced dishes, like fontina-stuffed meatballs and ricotta gnocchi with short rib ragu. Despite the space being so small, they have much more sidewalk seating than your average BYOB. Plus, the floor-to-ceiling windows open all the way up so the entire 30-seat dining room becomes an open-air restaurant, which is especially dreamy on a spring date night surrounded by flowers." - candis mclean, alison kessler
