About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
A credit card is MANDATORY for making reservations & booking for all party sizes.

On July 15th, 2009, Caravaggio, opened its doors for the first time. Giuseppe Bruno's latest cutting-edge concept carries on the long-lived family tradition of serving great food to our devoted patrons and to the greater New York area. Our attention to detail, in both food and service, will continue to be our main goal. We believe in nourishing body and soul, which is the wisdom of our Salerno ancestors from Southern Italy. Giuseppe and his staff will strive to continue this heartfelt tradition.

    This is probably the best Italian food I have had in ages! There were as many wonderful specials to choose from as there were delectable items on the menu. I had the eggplant ravioli in a fresh tomato sauce. It was absolutely excellent! My husband had the veal milanse and he said it was the best veal that he had ever had. Worth the trip! Service was also outstanding!

    Food and service was superb. My only issue, which I should have been more observant of, that the restaurant out on a “service charge” equal to approximately 20%, when I had already instructed them to add on a 22% tip. My bad for not noticing and they’re bad for not mentioning it.

    I hadn't been to Caravaggio in a while and was looking forward to another wonderful experience. I was disappointed. Finding pretty restaurants with fine food that are quiet enough to have a civil conversation are increasingly rare in this city. It is troubling. Though we were told that the Prosecco was dry, we found it had a sweet finish. We asked about alternatives, there were none by the glass. We ordered a white wine for dinner. It is more usual for restaurants to over chill their white wines by the bottle. In this case however, the white wine was a tad too warm. The appetizers, zucchini flowers stuffed with creamy ricotta and burrata with fresh figs were both perfect. Our main courses fell short of the mark. The linguini alle vongole had way too much garlic and was oily. The crab cake was okay, but not special. Maybe, I hope, it was just an off night.

    I think it’s outrageous that a restaurant of this caliber with the prices they charge to add a 3% service charge if you use a credit card get real

    Tranquil dining experience -- filled with exceptional staff, and incredible specials, as well as precise preparation and highest quality ingredients. I was disappointed with a highly recommended & vintage (expensive) bottle of Barolo -- which had far too much tannins and I question either the storage or the recommendation thereof. The aforementioned notwithstanding, the meal/experience was 99/100.
