La Scatolina

La Scatolina is an epicurean treasure in the heart of Greenwich Village. Enjoy exquisite Italian food and wine in the enchanting candlelit dining room, reminiscent of an old Tuscan farmhouse. Chef John Botticchio, one of New York's youngest and most passionate chefs, creates unique and traditional Italian fare with a pastoral elegance. His homemade foccaccia, pastas, gnocchi, and desserts are pure pleasure; be sure to try the pumpkin gnocchi with butternut squash, brown butter and fresh sage. Whether you desire a robust dish like the red-wine braised lamb shank in a savory mushroom merlot gravy, or succulent seafood like the Chilean seabass, everyone finds something enticing on the menu.
