Rossini's in NYC, NY

If you like Italian cuisine, Rossini’s is a great spot to know. Located closed to Grand Central, this Italian restaurant has an old school authentic feel, from the decor (it is fairly big: I counted three different rooms) to the attire of the waiters that is pretty formal.

Food wise, they have classics like the calamari fritti or melanzane imbotite (eggplant slices stuffed with ricotta and mozzarella) that they split into two portions as we were sharing.

For the entrees, you can go with their homemade pasta: their linguine alle vongole, although not the best I had, is delicious, but I admit that my all time favorite is their fettuccine Alfredo that is one of the best I ever had! Another option is their veal parmesan that is fried breaded veal topped with tomato, arugula and red onion (I had it twice already).

Dessert is an absolute thing to try: their tiramisu is sublime, creamy with the lady fingers perfectly soaked in coffee; their ricotta cheesecake is great, but the best is their homemade cannoli that was delightfully crispy, stuffed with an amazing ricotta filling.

A bit on the pricey side, Rossini’s is for sure a place to know. All the food I tried so far has been very good, but if you go, I suggest. you try their pasta Alfredo and let me know what you think.

Enjoy (I did)!
