MANZO is Eataly's more formal dining experience that celebrates meat from the United States sourced by iconic NY purveyor, Pat LaFrida. Located near Eataly's marble countered Macelleria or Butcher, Manzo offers both modern Italian preparations as well as traditional Piemontese beef dishes. Chef Michael Toscano, formerly of Babbo Ristorante, works like a true Italian butcher to use every part of the animal, tongue and cheek.

Lupa, a Roman-style trattoria, is raucous, festive, and delicious. The family-style servings of home-recipe Italian classics are all prepared perfectly from the freshest foods of the day. The kitchen's concept is to create dishes as traditionally Roman as possible, while skillfully substituting and supplementing ingredients that are out of season or unavailable in New York. The result is a Roman menu with a New York balance. Gael Greene of New York Magazine described Lupa as "...the trattoria of my dreams."

Esca, a southern Italian seafood trattoria, features classic and modern cuisine devoted to the fruits of the sea, prepared by James Beard award-winning chef, David Pasternak, in an elegant yet intimate dining room. You must try the crudo – Esca’s answer to sushi.

Del Posto is the ultimate expression of what an Italian restaurant should be. Mario Batali, Joe Bastianich and Lidia Bastianich represent a convergence of different styles and experiences. The restaurant concept generated at Del Posto can best be described as trans-generational: an expression of the evolution of cuisines, menus, service and ambiance that have characterized the history of the Italian dining experience in this country. Del Posto creates the highest quality dining experience in what is one of the greatest indoor spaces in New York City.

Mario’s Spanish taverna with a New York sensibility. Choose from over 500 wines and another dozen Sherries. Small plates, tapas-style, are all the rage, but traditional appetizers and entrees, spun beautifully by Mario and Chef Andy Nusser, will make you long for Barcelona. Marion Burros of The New York Times says Mario has, "another hit on his hands."
