21 Best Italian Restaurants in New York | Condé Nast Traveler

"Emilio’s Ballato was founded in 1956, and stepping inside is like being instantly transported to mid-century New York , where vintage photographs and album covers line the walls and chandeliers hang from the ceiling. The small, warm space is ideal for cold winter evenings, when all you want to do is sip a glass of the house red and dine on a simple, straightforward (yet perfectly prepared) plate of spaghetti pomodoro or gamberi oreganate. When you want that classic Little Italy night out, you can't do much better." - Andrea Whittle
