Vesta Trattoria & Wine Bar

"The next time you and your roommates all want to get in on the same delivery order, check out Vesta in Astoria. Order a thin-crust pie and some orecchiette, which is served family-style with enough for four or five people." - team infatuation

"Vesta Trattoria is a kid-friendly restaurant and wine bar on 30th Avenue that’s just a little more upscale than a place where you want to eat in your sweats (which is good news because you’ve been wearing sweats for months). They make a very good wild boar lasagna and other Italian-inspired dishes like osso buco. If you need an outdoor date spot in Astoria right now, the sidewalk seating at this place is ideal - they have a brand new mural and Vesta sangria for your enjoyment." - hannah albertine

"The next time a pizza-versus-pasta delivery debate begins to feel unproductive, check out Vesta in Astoria. Order a thin-crust pie, like the one with housemade sausage, as well as some orecchiette ai funghi." - team infatuation

"Vesta, a popular Italian spot, emphasizes seasonal and local ingredients in a menu that runs the gamut from thin-crust pizza topped with housemade pork sausage to lasagna layered with wild boar bolognese. The chic, candlelit space at dinner carries a romantic atmosphere." - Caroline Shin, Paul Schrodt, Melissa Kravitz Hoeffner

"This neighborhood Italian restaurant has a delightful menu of pizzas, pastas and more inspired by the greenmarket. The cute corner spot is an eight minute walk from the Astoria ferry pier and has a handful of outdoor tables." - The MICHELIN Guide
