Settepani Restaurant

Established in 1992 by Chef Nino Settepani and Leah Abraham before expanding to Harlem in 1999, this neighborhood spot prepares its dishes using imported ingredients from Italy. Alongside its classic fare, the kitchen runs a rotating seasonal menu. The dining room offers a relaxed escape with attentive service, though execution on the plate can vary; visitors report exceptionally crispy calamari that lacks depth in its sauce, and salads that can be weighed down by heavy dressing.
