Flatiron·$$$

Grandma Walking Through the Forest in Emilia

$32.00

Green on green herb pasta with seasonal vegetables and delicate sauce.

Tip: The name is memorable and the plating is beautiful. The herb flavors are subtle—don't expect bold greens, it's more refined.

Misi

Williamsburg·$$$

Spinach and Mascarpone Filled Tortelli

$27.00

Large, hand-folded tortelli with a rich spinach-mascarpone filling and brown butter.

Tip: This is non-negotiable. It's the technical peak of the menu. Don't over-sauce it—the brown butter at the bottom of the plate is liquid gold.

L'Artusi

West Village·$$$$

Garganelli with Mushroom Ragu

$26.00

Hand-rolled garganelli pasta in a rich, earthy mushroom sauce.

Tip: Even if you're a meat eater, order the garganelli. The umami depth in the mushroom sauce is incredible. It's one of the most consistent dishes on the menu.

Fettuccine with Buffalo Butter

$28.00

Handmade fettuccine with creamy buffalo milk butter and Parmigiano-Reggiano.

Tip: Buffalo butter is much richer than standard butter. If you're sharing, this is a great middle course to split between two people.

Rubirosa

SoHo·$$$

Vodka Sauce Pasta with Mini Meatballs

$26.00

Handmade pasta in a rich vodka sauce with tiny savory meatballs.

Tip: The portion is quite large. If you're a party of two, sharing the Tie-Dye pizza and this pasta is the quintessential Rubirosa meal. Ask for extra parmesan on top.

L'Artusi

West Village·$$$$

Spaghetti with Garlic, Chilies, and Parmesan

$24.00

A refined and punchy take on the classic Roman garlic and oil pasta.

Tip: The chilies have a real kick. If you're sensitive to heat, this might be too much, but for everyone else, it's the most addictive pasta in the West Village.

Torrisi

Nolita·$$$$

Tortellini Pomodoro

$34.00

Tiny handmade tortellini in a bright, concentrated tomato sauce.

Otis

Bushwick·$$$

Braised Pork Shoulder Pasta

$30.00

Handmade pasta with slow-cooked pork shoulder, mushrooms, and parmesan.

Tip: The portion is surprisingly large for a 'small plate' spot. It's very rich and savory, so it's perfect for sharing after a couple of lighter appetizers.

Lilia

Williamsburg·$$$

Fettuccine with Lamb Ragu

$27.00

Handmade ribbon pasta with slow-cooked lamb ragù and aged cheese.

Tip: If you want something more substantial than the agnolotti, this is your dish. The lamb is cooked low and slow — it falls apart and distributes evenly through the pasta.
