About Bamonte's

Bamonte's is a renowned Italian restaurant in NYC, renowned for its exceptional cuisine, atmosphere, and service. Despite potential delays in securing a reservation, the experience is well worth it. The wait staff may initially appear a bit rough around the edges, but the food, particularly the tomato sauce, is highly praised. The restaurant showcases old-school, time-tested red sauce recipes, with the Sunday sauce being a standout recommendation. Bamonte's exudes a classic, authentic vibe that transports diners to the old-world charm of Italy. It is considered one of the last great old Italian restaurants in the city, a cherished relic from a bygone era. The atmosphere is lively, with a mix of indoor and outdoor dining options, and even a nostalgic cigarette machine out front adds to its timeless appeal. While the food may not be mind-blowing, the Veal Parmesan, lasagna, and baked clams are all customer favorites. Bamonte's remains a must-visit destination for anyone seeking a genuine old-world Italian dining experience.

I got the mozzarella, tomatoes, and roasted peppers appetizer. I also got the fried zucchini appetizer. The zucchini comes with a really good marinara dip. Everything was delicious! Their bread was also very delicious and I dipped it in the sauce :). It's an expensive place but it was worth it. Definitely did not leave hungry. Very friendly staff.
Great experience, lovely service.
This place is line stepping back in time with the decor and vibe of this place. Customers have to be dressed well and properly, there are signs about dress code on the door. The staff are all dressed well like how many Italian restaurants used to look. Food was delicious, eggplant rollatini, fried zucchini, rigatoni vodka, gnocchi pesto special, Sunday sauce special, and apple crumb pie. Can't wait to return!
No step to enter. Small gendered restrooms.
