"Bar Pitti is a constant scene, and it's not necessarily due to the food being great. (Though some things, like the warm bowl of tuna and beans, are fairly delicious.) It’s the definition of an endearingly imperfect NYC classic, and it has the wait times to prove it. The all-yellow restaurant is over 30 years old, and it’s not going to change its ways any time soon (or ever). Come for people watching on their sidewalk patio, bring cash, and expect the sort of blunt service that makes you feel like you did something slightly wrong. At best, you’ll see an A-lister, and at worst you’ll make friends with a kid in a soccer uniform who has a regular order here." - willa moore, will hartman, sonal shah, neha talreja, arden shore
