Scarpetta is great for some things. The octopus was awesome. Gorgeous atmosphere and excellent service. However—there was NOTHING about 75% of our meal that justified the price. $40 for spaghetti and meatballs? Three meatballs and a passable tomato sauce with average pasta. An arugula salad for $25? If you go I’d suggest going at happy hour. Otherwise it’s not worth it. There are better Italian spots all over that take the same care with their food but don’t charge you hotel restaurant prices.

The staff was very accommodating in making sure we were able to secure a reservation despite the fact that it was extremely busy. We sat at the bar and, given the amount of people, service was very good. The food was above average bar food. Prices were very reasonable. My only complaint was the noise level.
