MISIPASTA

"Missy Robbins, the chef behind Brooklyn pasta powerhouses Lilia, Misi, and Misipasta, writes in her cookbook Pasta that making fresh pasta is “all about touch, and the well allows you to get acquainted with the dough as you mix and knead it and to commit the texture of the final product to memory.”" - Jaya Saxena

"Misipasta is the new restaurant from Missy Robbins and Sean Feeney, the owners of Brooklyn’s popular Italian spots Lilia and Misi. It’s really a pasta shop — fresh noodles, sauces, and cheeses are displayed on shelves to take home — but there are seats at two counters and more tables in the backyard. The short menu has grilled artichoke sandwiches and spaghetti with breadcrumbs, plus cocktails and wine, starting at 11 a.m. daily." - Eater Staff

"If you’re looking for casual, consider Misipasta, the new cafe from Missy Robbins and Sean Feeney, who own Brooklyn’s popular Italian restaurants Lilia and Misi. It’s really a pasta shop — there are fresh noodles, sauces, and cheeses on display — but there are seats at two counters and more tables in the backyard. The changing menu has grilled artichoke sandwiches and pasta, plus cocktails and wine." - Eater Staff

"So I feel a bit like Goldilocks at Robbins’s newest spot, Misipasta, which opened last summer, again in Williamsburg, on the ground floor of a charming brick row house on an especially charming stretch of Grand Street. It’s a market as much as a restaurant, and the narrow room is mostly given over to operational space." - Helen Rosner

"Misipasta, from the team behind Misi and Lilia, is where you should go when you want to eat some anchovies and drink a spritz in a backyard that feels like a small, private park. Part Italian grocery store, part aperitivo bar, this spot near the Williamsburg waterfront is as casual as a coffee shop, and it’s a nice place to hang out for an hour or two when you’re feeling aimless and need some Campari. The menu is brief and mostly consists of snack-sized bites, with a few larger items like an artichoke sandwich and a rotating pasta or two." - Willa Moore, Neha Talreja, Bryan Kim, Kenny Yang
