Exceptional(120)
Price: Expensive
• Italian • West Village
Booked 88 times today
San Sabino is a seafood focused restaurant from wife and husband team, chefs Angie Rito and Scott Tacinelli, in partnership with Quality Branded. After working in some of NYC’s top Italian restaurants and dreaming of opening their own special neighborhood spot, Angie and Scott opened Don Angie in 2018 to tremendous critical acclaim. They quickly became known for boldly unexpected dishes that challenge your perception of traditional Italian-American cooking.Six years later and just a few doors down from Don Angie, they've now opened their second restaurant, San Sabino. Named after Scott’s grandfather (from Sanza, Italy, where most people are named after the patron saint Sabino), San Sabino offers a playful spin on Italian dishes from Shrimp Parm to Pasta Alle Vongole, with bold twists influenced by coastal American cities where many Italians settled, from New Orleans to the Jersey Shore.

• Contemporary Italian • Upper East Side
Booked 20 times today
Join us at Aunt Jake's Upper East Side for our Pasta Making Class & 3-course pasta menu! The cost is $60 per person for pasta instruction and the prefix meal. We require a $10 per person non-refundable deposit. The entire experience is approximately 2.5 hours. Please use the OpenTable mobile app for best results when booking the Pasta Experience.–Aunt Jake's was founded in 2015, as the company set out to replicate the idyllic, simplistic cuisine we grew up to enjoy. However, we wanted to create Italian food for the “next” generation. The idea was to develop an Italian concept around the customer’s choice of how to eat pasta compared to how the restaurant wanted you to eat it. With that in mind, Aunt Jake’s core mission is to bring high-quality fresh ingredients daily to craft our handmade pasta and sauces health-consciously. The customer can mix and match sauce with shape and create a custom dish of their own.
