L'Artusi

The Best Restaurants In The West Village - New York - The Infatuation

"There’s a correct way to do L’Artusi, and this is it: You come with one other person, and you sit at the bar. You order a crudo and the roasted mushrooms with pancetta and a fried egg, and then you share two pastas. You drink wine. You go home happy. Unlike a lot of rustic downtown Italian spots, the decor is modern with upholstered seating and gray tile floors, and a dinner here is about as good a date night as they come. You can’t go wrong with any of the pastas, and the wagyu carpaccio alone is worth coming back for." - bryan kim, will hartman, sonal shah, molly fitzpatrick
