"If we rated restaurants purely on how good they are at making pasta, Fiaschetteria Pistoia would get a near-perfect score. The pasta at this East Village spot, which has one of the most rustic-looking rooms in the city, is all housemade, and it’s consistently flawless. Try the creamy cacio e pepe or the gnocchi in a simple tomato sauce. We also like the zucchini flan and the fact that their “wine list” is several tagged bottles in an old-timey metal basket that they bring to your table." - Willa Moore, Sonal Shah, Neha Talreja, Bryan Kim, Carina Finn Koeppicus
