Da Raffaele
4.5 (230)restaurant
This cozy, white-tablecloth Manhattan spot pairs homemade Southern Italian classics with warm, owner-led hospitality.
Description




The dining room leans into an old-world Italian vibe set to pleasant jazz, where the kitchen turns out southern staples alongside fabulous complimentary bread. While the menu features dishes like eggplant rollatini, zucchini blossoms, and meatballs stuffed with mozzarella, raisins, and pine nuts, the kitchen is notably flexible—often willing to prepare off-menu requests to accommodate diners. An ample wine selection and desserts like chocolate mousse or crème brûlée with berries complete the neighborhood experience.
