- KKatheVIPNew York City •38 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoThis second Da Andrea restaurant is even better than the first one on 13th Street. If you are planning a visit to the Joyce Theater to see some dance, don't pass up the opportunity to have a pre or post theater great dining experience just a ½ block away. It is beautiful inside and the chef has created some really wonderful dishes. Our server, Grace was friendly and efficient and lived up to her name. We can recommend the short ribs and truffle mashed potatoes and the scallop /arthichoke/asparagus special dishes being served now. The caesar salad has a nice touch of polenta croutons and a very flavorful dressing. Especially delicious was our appetizer - we shared the special main dish of a nest of cheese risotto with a great tomato & meat sauce nestled on top. We were sad to not be able to fit a dessert in to our well stuffed stomachs. I guess we'll need to go back soon for that!!!More infoDa Andrea - ChelseaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Chelsea•4.5

Discover Chelsea
The premier arts district of NYC, Chelsea’s dining scene is refreshingly low-key—a nice counterpoint to the world-renowned galleries. The nearby High Line has brought more foot traffic to the formerly quiet industrial area, and the influx of energy is reflected in the new crop of restaurants. Get a bite or nosh at one of the buzzing coffee shops or acclaimed tapas spots. For heartier fare, affordable Mexican, messy pulled pork sandos, and raved-about ramen round out the best of the casual options. Good taste isn’t just for the art world, and this downtown neighborhood puts that on full display.
