The Top Italian Restaurants in New York City

"Major Food Group has opened Torrisi Bar and Restaurant in the landmarked, 19th-century Puck Building: It’s a revival of sorts of the team’s first restaurant, Torrisi Italian Specialties, which closed in 2015, growing from a counter-service sandwich shop that started in 2009 with coffee and lunch, and later, adding a set menu. The new iteration has earned three stars from the New York Times for its take on Italian American dishes like linguine with a pink clam sauce or chicken alla griglia, as well as tributes to New York restaurant favorites, like an octopus nha trang. It’s a great dining room for theater and general people-watching." - Eater Staff
