Canto West Village
4.6 (1,880)restaurant
4.6 (1,880)This intimate West Village spot pairs classic Italian comfort food with standout frozen espresso martinis.
Description
Under a wood ceiling and exposed brick, the dining room transitions from dinner to a dedicated Canto Casual service featuring cold dishes, French fries, and a full bar. The kitchen turns out home-style plates like orecchiette with sausage and broccoli rabe alongside bruschetta balanced with pesto and sweet tomatoes. Because of the very limited seating, the space stays lively and close-quartered, backed by a strong wine list and warm service.
