An intimate retreat in the Gansevoort Market Historic District, Scarpetta offers honest yet sophisticated Italian cuisine. Scarpetta means "little shoe," a description of the shape bread takes when used to soak up a dish. Chef Scott Conant (L'Impero, Alto) adds that kind of personal detail to classics, such as spaghetti bolognese, as well as offering some of the most tenderly prepared seafood. This is a perfect retreat for a casual dinner and a drink at the mahogany bar or at the less street-shy caf.
