Café Altro Paradiso - New York

Cute place. Delicious food, good wine list and Nice cocktails. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. It was raining outside so they set up a second umbrella so we will not get wet. Fennel salad is so delicious.

What an amazing place and such a delicious meal!! The restaurant is all the way downtown and the area around it is nice but not crowded if you go during the weekend. One major nit was that their outdoor patio is well heated but not properly setup. My chair was at the edge of the opening and had to have my jacket on during dinner the entire time. With that said, everything else was perfect. I really liked the touch of an on table taste of the wine to confirm that?s the one we want. My wife tried a few before settling on her wine. For appetizers we got the arancini (5/5), polenta (4/5) and they served us the house sesame bread. Everything was amazing and I could eat 10 more of the arancini. The calabrese pepper sauce that comes with the arancini is sooo good. I dipped everything in it. I generally rate Italian places with how well them make their pasta al dente and how well they make cacio e Pepe. While the restaurant passed on creativity and texture on the candele pasta, I wished for more thicker of a sauce and the pasta was a bit too heavy on the pepper for my liking. Overall it?s still a solid dish and I?d give it a 5/5. For dessert we got the seasonal persimmon jam pie which was super thin and flavorful. I loved the addition of a HEAVY cream dollop that helped balance out the flavors. Highly recommend!

The pasta is amazing... as well as the octopus dish. I understand the menu changes but if you have the opportunity try the octopus! Enjoyed my daughter's bday dinner!

Very nice and especial place to have good Italian food!

Little bit disappointed.. I think it’s overrated, pastas are really basic and the service very slow .. I would recommend L’Artusi we ate the best pastas there it’s was amazing !!
