A gorgeous 5 Star Yelp Rated gem nestled amidst the lux Upper East Side between the East River & Central Park, Donna Margherita is a beloved Italian trattoria where New Yorkers can reconnect, enjoying traditional Italian cuisine food with modern touches - not to mention fabulous wine!
Grab your $49 pulse (a $92 value) for a 3 Course Dinner For Two that includes 1 Pizza, 1 Primi or Secondi, 1 Dessert, and 2 Glasses of Red or White Wine.
Helmed by native Italians, you know you're in for true authenticity. Owner Enzo Napoli and Chef Salvatore merge their talents to bring a slice (and a fork-full) of Italy to your palate so you can savor the culture right here in Manhattan.
Begin with a glass of red vino before devouring the Tartufata Pizza adorned with imported mozzarella, Italian truffle oil, cherry tomatoes, arugula, Parmigiano Reggiano and prosciutto di Parma, followed by tender, delicious Branzino, not to mention Tagliata, aka New York Strip Steak alongside roasted potatoes.
Wrap up the food festa with some Tiramisu Della Casa, made fresh daily using a traditional recipe - regulars say it's the best in the city, so what are you waiting for?
Who needs a flight to Italy when you can experience a magnifico night within reach? We give you Donna Margherita, a 5 Star Yelp Rated charming jewel just waiting to be unearthed! Under the cheerful backdrop of an Italian countryside, you'll linger over generous dishes that best showcase the culture's epicurean delights.
In keeping with Italian tradition, Chef Salvatore only uses ingredients of the highest quality to bring out the true flavors of each dish. And when you add in a cozy trattoria ambiance and al fresco-style seating during the hotter months, you'll feel as though you've been transported to "la dolce vita!"
Begin like a true Italian, musing over glasses of red and white wines, letting your palate be enticed by the aromas and tasting notes. Next up, a wood-fired Calabrian 'Nduja Pizza cooked in their custom pizza oven will have you in foodie bliss, dotted with imported spicy sausage from Calabria, mozzarella, San Marzano tomato sauce & fresh basil.
Next up, slice into Short Ribs Di Fara, comprised of boneless short ribs in Neapolitan ragù sauce - heavenly. The homemade pasta is also divine, namely the Linguine Alle Vongole with fresh clams, white sauce, and cherry tomatoes, or the Traditional Carbonara with guanciale pork, egg yolk and Pecorino Romano.
The kick of an Affogato (vanilla gelato, Italian double espresso) for dessert will carry you through the rest of the night - "perfetto" in every way...
All selections will be made from the restaurant's full dinner menu

Donna Margherita reps a bella 5 Stars on Yelp from 105+ reviews including:
"The food was INCREDIBLE. Everyone at the table was licking their plates clean and could not stop talking about how good everything was. The bread is insane and their olive oil is probably the best I've ever had. We had the pizza with mushroom and sausage and it was fantastic. I do not post Yelp reviews almost ever but I felt like after such an awesome experience it would be wrong not to. Do yourself a favor and check this place out."
*"This is the best Italian food in NYC! Absolutely no doubt about it! If you are looking to try some authentic real homemade Italian food this is absolutely the place to go! Everything is fresh. Quality is excellent - above any imagination and staff is very professional and attentive! 5 stars plus!"
"I would give Donna Margherita 10 stars if I could. This is my favorite neighborhood restaurant and quite possibly the best Italian food in the Upper East Side. My husband and I go out to eat several times a week in the UES and always find ourselves back at Donna Margherita. I have loved everything I have tried on the menu."
"Absolutely fabulous. Have lived in the UES for almost 3 years and this is one of my favorite places in the neighborhood. Service is amazing, food is outstanding, and the atmosphere is great. 10/10 must go."
