Italian small plates are matched by an extensive wine list at this bi-level restaurant. Named after an 1800’s Italian cookbook writer, Pellegrino Artusi, the foundation for L’Artusi lies in its attention to regional food and wine. Diners will find an extensive wine list that features primarily Italian vintages that identify where the wine was created.
The small, refined menu offers selections under each heading of appetizers, salads, fish, meats, and pasta, listing just a few ingredients used in the preparation of each dish. The goal here is to use ingredients that elevate, not mask, the dish’s focal point. According to Artusi, this is the “art of eating well,” which ranks it among the best Italians in New York.
