Antonucci Cafe is a small, old-world Italian restaurant located in New York, known for its authentic and delicious Italian specialties. The menu features options like Eggplant Parmesan, stuffed squash, pappardelle Bolognese, orcchietti with veal and Tartufo. The restaurant also offers a variety of wines and cocktails, including scrumptious limoncello martinis and perfectly prepared Old Fashioneds with Woodford Reserve. The service is attentive and friendly, with staff being very welcoming and accommodating. The atmosphere is intimate, making it a great spot for a date night or a gathering with friends. Guests often enjoy dishes like the squash blossoms, which are fresh and clean tasting, and the clams with linguine, which are absolutely perfect. The Eggplant Parmesan appetizer is sweet and flavorful, and the rigatoni à la vodka has a standout underlying tone that adds to its profile. The Tartufo is often praised as the best ever, and the grilled calamari, ravioloni, and tagliatelle received positive remarks. A tomato and cheese appetizer from the kitchen was a delightful surprise for some visitors. Antonucci Cafe is a local favorite, with many noting that the food is outstanding, and reservations are recommended for a great experience.
