Extraordinary farm-to-table cuisine, an exceptionally curated wine list, effortless elegance, and a sublime location just steps from the Museum of Natural History come together at 'Cesca - the Upper West Side hideaway for celebs and locals commanding an impressive 2 Stars by The New York Times.
Savor the finest in Italian dining with this $79 pulse (a $150 value) for a 3 Course Dinner For Two that includes 2 Appetizers, 2 Entrees, 2 Desserts, and 1 Bottle of Sommelier-Selected Red or White Wine to balance and heighten your dishes.
Critically-acclaimed Executive Chef Yanni Tobas (Elaia Estiatorio) sources the freshest daily catches and local organic produce for a richly flavorful menu - think Fiorentina di Maiale Berkshire pork porterhouse with broccoli rabe & cannellini beans, or the Tortelli ai Funghi mushroom-filled pasta adorned with black truffle cream and shaved Grana.
From the whitestone entrance and the open kitchen, to the soft illumination cast on your feast by antique chandeliers, the stunning style within perfectly highlights the food for an unforgettable experience.
It's no wonder Frank Bruni of The New York Times called his time at 'Cesca "a total pleasure."
Housed in a historic Upper West Side landmarked building, 'Cesca was founded in 2003 by Chef Tom Valenti (Gotham Bar & Grill, Le Cirque) and remains to this day one of the top restaurants in the city, boasting 2 stars by Adam Platt of New York Magazine.
The thoughtfully, epicurean-focused menu epitomizes the Italian philosophy of shortening the distance any ingredient travels between the earth or the sea and the plate. Vibrant picks from local farmers and daily bounties from the ocean turn the menu into a superb tour-de-force.
For a most intriguing appetizer, try the Burrata (creamy Apulian mozzarella) studded by a balsamic glaze, olive oil, prosciutto di Parma, cherry tomatoes, and crushed pistachio di Bronte.
The main event calls for a showstopper like the Agnello alla Scottadito (grilled lamb chops, artichokes, garlic & olive oil), not to mention the Salmone, repping a perfectly grilled Faroe Island salmon fillet with an adornment of Sicilian caponata.
With a setting that evokes an intimate private apartment in Rome belonging to a well-traveled gourmand, immerse yourself in marvelous eats, delightful sips, and an enchanting atmosphere...
All food & wine selections will be made from the restaurant's Tasting Menu.
Your $79 Dinner For Two (a $150 Value) Includes:
