Torrisi - (Near New York, NY)

5 /5 Man Kit S.: We had a fantastic experience at Torrisi. We put our name down for walk-ins and the team was able to accommodate us without much of a wait. The staff was warm and attentive and the food was incredible from start to finish. Every dish was full of flavor and the atmosphere made the whole evening feel special. We left already talking about what we want to order next time. Highly recommend!

5 /5 Henrry Fermin: Torrisi is easily one of the hardest reservations to secure in New York, and after finally getting in, I can say without hesitation, it is absolutely worth the effort. This was, without exaggeration, some of the best Italian food I’ve ever had in my life. From the moment you walk in, you’re struck by how beautiful the space is. The restaurant is elegant, refined, and warm, with a bar area that’s low-lit and atmospheric in the best possible way. It feels special the second you sit down. Hospitality: Every server here is incredible, Ive been here for lunch and dinner and the level of coordination between the entire team is unreal. They move with precision, communicate effortlessly, and make the entire experience feel seamless. The hospitality alone is 5 stars, right alongside the food. Food: Every single dish I ordered was phenomenal But the true standouts, the dishes that actually left me speechless were: * American Ham with Zeppole – perfectly balanced, unforgettable.
(HIGHLY RECOMMEND) * Tortellini Pomodoro – simple, stunning, and flawlessly executed.

(HIGHLY RECOMMEND) * Cavatelli with Jamaican Beef Ragu – rich, light spice, bold, and incredibly flavorful.

(HIGHLY RECOMMEND) * Chicken Alla Griglia – tender, smoky, and packed with depth.

(HIGHLY RECOMMEND) Every dish feels thoughtful, elevated, and crafted with intention. Torrisi doesn’t miss, you truly can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Dessert: The Almond Cheesecake was unreal... one of the best desserts I’ve ever had, light, nutty, and absolutely perfect, and the Affogato was the ideal finishing touch—simple, refreshing, and the perfect end to a rich meal. Drinks: Mulberry Manhattan, Sicilian and Dagger John. The cocktails are excellent balanced, creative, and a perfect complement to the meal. Whatever you order, you’re in good hands. Overall, Torrisi delivers an exceptional dining experience from start to finish. Beautiful space, incredible food, amazing drinks, it’s the kind of restaurant that stays with you long after you leave. I will absolutely be back.

5 /5 Nolwenn C: I understand the hype. Wallked in at 6pm on Wed and got a seat at the bar at 7. The amberjack crudo imported daily from Japan was so fresh and melted in my mouth. We tried 3 pastas, the truffle tortellini (a daily special), the jerk cavatelli, and amatriciana. All of them were absolutely delicious, probably the best truffle pasta I’ve had (mind you, the tortellini portion in the pic is half of the dish). Finished the night with the affogato, with shaved ice which was a solid 10/10. Can’t recommend enough if you have the patience to wait, or lucky enough to get a reso!

5 /5 Rohin Gupta: My first visit to a MFG restaurant I was beyond thrilled with the experience. We arrived 15 minutes early to our 10:30 reservation and were kindly allowed us to wait out the difference by the bar. This was absolutely welcome considering the fact that we were seated in the main room and wouldnt have otherwise had an opportunity to check out the gorgeous bar room. Soon after we were greeted, brought to our table, and given our menus. The food was sublime. In total we had the American Ham with Zeppole, Cucumbers New Yorkese, Tortellini Pomodoro, Cavatelli with Jamaican Beef, Chicken Alla Griglia, Duck Alla Mulberry, and an Affogato each. Absolutely everything was excellent, no complaints, but the Chicken Alla Griglia was in a league of its own. It was genuinely the best chicken dish I’ve ever had. If you’re coming here for the first time I think it’s an absolute must. All credit to our server, Mark S, for steering us in that direction. Speaking about the service, Mark was a fantastic host and was an integral part of our experience. He had a great, effusive vibe and his command of the menu was exceptional. The only slight hiccup we had was that we never received the refill of table bread that we asked for, but overall that did not hamper the experience. Reservations are challenging, but in my opinion anyone who cares about the NYC food scene has to come here at least once.
