With the same fire that burned in the culinary belly of Ancient Rome, Francesco and Valerio embarked on a dream to open a cozy, authentic Italian restaurant in New York. From homemade pasta, a time-honored tribute to their Nonna's lasagna sheets hanging on a drying rack on Sundays, to wood-fired pizza Romana, a thin-crust pizza, classic recipes like carbonara, cacio e pepe, carciofi fritti, and suppli, a Roman rice ball street food, you can eat like a Roman at Botte without booking an expensive flight to Roma. Then again, traveling to Italy is always a fun adventure. There is a sense of Italian Famiglia, family, and kinship within the Botte group. Chef Antonio Costa opened the first Botte Bar and has returned to enhance his Roman family recipes from generations ago.There is a table for everyone at Botte. Whether you are a regular or a first-time customer, patrons from all walks of life are welcome to dine in a Roman-Italian Trattoria casual atmosphere at Botte Ditmars.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Carmine's on 44th with a large party, and I must say, the service was exceptional from start to finish! The hostess made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived, and the attentive service continued throughout the evening. I spoke with the manager, who went above and beyond to accommodate our needs, ensuring we had everything we needed for a great experience. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was perfect for our gathering. I highly recommend Carmine's on 44th for its fantastic food and outstanding service!

This restaurant is just perfect for pre-theatre dining and/or special occasions. We celebrated an anniversary and needed to promptly move on to the theatre following dinner. The staff was great, attentive, knowledgeable and so professional. Food was excellent and the wine and desserts were memorable. We stayed at the Park Lane hotel and Quality Italian was just so convenient as well as welcoming. I’ll add it to our “must go in NYC” list.
