Upper East Side Italian Restaurant With Corkage-Free Mondays
Twirl homemade pasta after the Met at an Upper East Side Italian restaurant with a family welcome at the door.
🍝 Homemade Pasta Near the Met
Homemade pasta leads the meal at Masseria East, an Upper East Side Italian restaurant at 1404 3rd Ave that works neatly as lunch after the Met. The owning family greets guests at the door, and that personal welcome sets the tone before the first plate lands.
The dining room pairs an elegant setting with friendly, attentive service, and the menu runs through classic Italian dishes, with pasta and seafood at the center. Desserts get real attention here. Expect balanced sweetness instead of a heavy sugar finish, and leave room for that last course.
Lunch runs Monday through Saturday from noon to 3 PM, with dinner from 5 PM to 10 PM, and Sunday service runs from noon to half past nine. On Mondays you can bring your own wine without a corkage fee, which turns an ordinary weeknight into a shared bottle and a long BYOB Italian dinner. Private events are also on offer for larger groups.
