The property

Becco stands as a testament to authentic Italian dining in the heart of Hell’s Kitchen. This Lidia Bastianich restaurant has maintained its reputation as a pre-theater staple for good reason, striking that perfect balance between accessibility and culinary excellence.

The all-you-can-eat pasta trio is the undeniable star here – a rotating selection of three freshly made pastas that servers continuously bring to your table until you surrender. It’s comfort food elevated to an art form, with options like pappardelle with braised duck or orecchiette with sausage and broccoli rabe that showcase simple ingredients handled with expert care. Even pasta purists visiting from Italy give their nod of approval.

What makes Becco special isn’t flashy innovation, but rather its unwavering commitment to Italian cooking traditions. The Caesar salad prepared tableside and the osso buco are executed with the precision that comes from decades of perfecting recipes. The restaurant’s rustic-elegant atmosphere with its exposed brick and warm lighting creates a convivial environment that encourages lingering over conversation and wine.

Speaking of wine – their $40 bottle list features excellent Italian selections that would cost twice as much elsewhere in the city. This combination of value, quality and atmosphere explains why Becco continues to thrive even as trendier spots come and go around it.
