"It's extremely hard to secure a reservation at Via Carota (one of the best restaurants in NYC), and there's pretty much always a wait for walk-ins of two or more hours. Obviously, that's kind of annoying, but it doesn't deter us from eating here. This place manages to stick out among thousands of Italian restaurants in NYC by making food that’s unfussy and uniformly delicious. A meal here should involve some of the dozen-plus vegetable dishes, the steak tartare-like svizzerina, and the cacio e pepe (which is non-optional)." - bryan kim, neha talreja, willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, tiffany yannetta
