Italian food in New York stretches from red-sauce nostalgia to precise regional cooking, and the city honors both ends. Carbone in Greenwich Village turns 1950s Italian-American service into theatre, while Rezdôra in the Flatiron earned a Michelin star for hand-rolled Emilian pastas. Frankies 457 Spuntino has served Brooklyn-Italian on Court Street in Carroll Gardens since 2004, and Via Carota in the West Village leans Tuscan.
