"Historically, our favorite way to eat at L’Artusi is to go with one other person, sit at the bar, start with the roasted mushrooms and ricotta with homemade crackers, and then share two pastas. But having a meal surrounded by 2,000 bottles of wine in this West Village restaurant’s private cellar sounds pretty good, too. For larger events, they offer buyouts of their second floor, for up to 55 people." - neha talreja, bryan kim, hannah albertine, will hartman
