🎨 Venetian Plates Among Paintings

Hand rolled pasta, Venetian cooking, a room lined with paintings. Antonucci Cafe brings those three together at 170 E 81st St on the Upper East Side. The house highlights include hand rolled Strigoli and branzino, with selections ranging across meat and fish. That gives a table of diners room to choose between pasta and seafood without making the whole meal about one dish.

Inside, the compact dining room keeps the setting intimate, with a relaxed, quiet atmosphere during the day. Outdoor dining has heated seating that keeps tables comfortable into early winter. Private parties are another option here, alongside the everyday pleasure of sitting down to classic Venetian fare.

Hours run from noon to 10 PM on Monday and Sunday, and noon to ten thirty PM Tuesday through Saturday. Keep that later finish in mind when planning an evening around the neighborhood.
