Where Seafood Pasta Meets Cannoli In Tottenville
Dig into seafood pasta and house-made cannoli at a Tottenville table with deep Brooklyn dessert roots.
🍝 Pasta then pastry
Aunt Butchie's of Brooklyn anchors the Tottenville end of Staten Island, a full Italian kitchen and bakery on Arthur Kill Road that carries its Brooklyn dessert name south. The seafood pasta arrives heavy with mussels, clams, and calamari over orecchiette in a garlicky red sauce. Up front, a glass case stacks cannoli, eclairs, and cream puffs for the walk out, a nod to the bakery the family built first. White tablecloths and chandeliers fill the dining room, and the bar and cafe pull a steady weekend crowd. Reservations help on Saturday nights near the southern tip of the borough.
