About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem

Step into 1 Nocello and experience the essence of Italy in New York. This charming Italian restaurant offers a memorable dining experience with a warm atmosphere and exquisite dishes made from the freshest ingredients. Savor the signature Fettucini Nocello, a delightful mix of flat ribbon pasta, tender chicken, savory mushrooms, and crispy bacon in a light cream sauce. For a unique twist, try the Gnocchi Chorizo, featuring homemade potato dumplings, spicy chorizo, sun-dried tomatoes, and pesto in a light rose sauce. Seafood enthusiasts will love the Spaghetti Pescatore, a vibrant dish with spaghetti, calamari, mussels, prawns, fish, and scallops in a light tomato sauce with a hint of chili. Vegetarians can enjoy the Risotto Verdura, a flavorful blend of Italian-style risotto with mushrooms, spinach, and asparagus, topped with Pecorino cheese. At 1 Nocello, it's not just about the food; it's about creating lasting memories in an elegant setting.

    My only issue was that the music was a bit loud. I don’t know if that would’ve felt different in a full restaurant, but the place was empty as we were there just as it opened.

    What a great find! Wonderfully delicious food, very attentive but not obtrusive service, lovely ambiance, and quiet enough to have a real conversation with dinner guests. All that and reasonably priced, by NYC standards, to boot. I'll definitely be coming back.
