The Red Hen

"A rustic Italian gem known for its incredibly popular and packed atmosphere, featuring spot-on pastas and Italian cuisine." - Kevin Chau

"The Bloomingdale stalwart will be open for dinner on New Year’s Eve with its full menu and a few festive specials, including caviar and chips with whipped lemon creme fraiche, New York strip steak, and Albert de Conti Pétillant Naturel, available by the glass. Reservations are available via Resy." - Vinciane Ngomsi

"An Italian restaurant celebrated for its hearty and delicious offerings, earning its Bib Gourmand status." - MICHELIN Guide

"When President Joe Biden famously ate the beloved rigatoni here last year, it caused quite an uproar for the Bloomingdale trattoria. Not only does it boast a private entrance, but also an intelligent plan should something go awry when famous guests are in the vicinity." - Vinciane Ngomsi

"If you live in Bloomingdale, count yourself lucky to call The Red Hen a neighborhood restaurant. Come here to catch up with friends over glasses of orange wine and crispy fried arancini—and soon enough, you'll be basking in the warm glow of the red brick room. The entrees, like slow-cooked beef cheek pappardelle, are delicious, and do that thing that good Italian food does which makes you feel like you’re eating at someone’s home. Just make sure y'all don't start feeling so comfortable that your friends start kicking off their shoes and undoing their belts. You’re still in public." - omnia saed
