"An Italian-inspired cafe offering some of the best hot chocolate in New York City." - Rebecca Flint Marx
"A no-reservations bar by Jody Williams and Rita Sodi, offering Italian drinks from morning coffee to evening cocktails, along with salatini, panini, tremezzini, bomboloni, etc. Recently expanded to three storefronts." - Melissa McCart
"An Italian-themed expansion from Jody Williams and Rita Sodi, featuring a retail shop and additional bar space." - Emma Orlow
"Bar Pisellino’s hot chocolate is notably thick, smooth, and pillowy. Drinking it feels like starring in your own Hallmark holiday movie, without all of the unnecessary drama. If you’re ever in the West Village on a weekend morning, stop by and drink one on their sidewalk patio. You’ll have front-row seats to some prime people watching, à la the Via Carota brunch crowd and celebrity dog walkers along 7th Avenue." - will hartman, carina finn koeppicus, nikko duren
"Nothing in NYC feels as much like sitting in an Italian coffee shop than Bar Pisellino, a wedge-shaped space across the street from Via Carota. Pastries are presented along with espresso beverages and aperitivi. Tiny bomboloni are the heart of the program, filled with either raspberry jam or vanilla custard — though both are not always available." - Eater Staff
