About Gennaro Restaurant

Gennaro Restaurant, located on the Upper West Side, offers great Italian food in a cozy and warm atmosphere. It is known for its consistent and delicious dishes, like the Spinach Ricotta Ravioli and the incredible Caponata, a slightly sweetened eggplant appetizer. This gem specializes in Sicilian style cooking and has been a favorite since 1996. The authentic Italian cuisine and welcoming staff make it a standout in NYC. From the tasty porcini salad to flavorful stuffed pasta and lamb shank, Gennaro's delivers a true Italian dining experience with attentive service and a decent wine selection. The portions may be small for some plates, but the food is unique and delicious. The ambiance is convivial, with a great background playlist, and the food is always traditional Italian dishes. The spaghetti alla chitarra and the tart with potatoes, beets, goat cheese, and arugula are particularly amazing. Many diners leave with fond memories of their meal, and the owner/chef Gennaro's passion for food is evident in every dish.
