Pasta Tasting Menus and Italian Wine in Manhattan
An Italian dinner circuit in Manhattan, from a vaulted tasting menu room on Duane Street to Northern Italian wines at a Varick Street bar, a walk-in friendly wine bar on West Broadway and a family-run Veneto kitchen.


Tasting menus of French-influenced Italian cooking unfold over several courses in a vaulted room at 165 Duane Street, with compliments from the chef between plates. Truffle ravioli, butternut squash agnolotti and scallops lead to a pistachio crème brûlée. It is closed Monday and serves dinner Tuesday to Sunday.
