"Now that I know about Epistrophy and what an effusively friendly place it is...I can’t wait to go back." So says the critics at Forbes when gushing about Epistrophy - a cozy Nolita charmer that serves up exquisite contemporary Italian cuisine, elevated by the social vibe & the fantastic drinks menu equally noticed in The New York Times.
Grab your $59 pulse (a $119 value) for a 3 Course Dinner For Two that includes 1 Appetizer, 2 Entrees, 1 Dessert, and 2 Cocktails, Wines, or Beers - think glasses of Spritz Veneziano (bitter select original, prosecco, soda, olive) or Montepulciano d’Abruzzo to swig while you savor.
This treasure is the work of husband & wife team Giorgia Zedda and Luca Fadda, alongside partner Nico Paganelli - all Sardinian natives who wanted to create an intimate haven of epicurean treats dotted with cushioned benches, brick walls, a cuddle-worthy sofa, and racks of Italian magazines for an authentic atmosphere.
Devour plates of Burrata with farm tomatoes, toasted almonds, celery & red onion vinaigrette, followed by mains like Creekstone Farm Hanger Steak (Pat La Frieda, black angus 100% grass-fed beef steak, rosemary fingerling potatoes, caramelized onions), not to mention homemade Gnocchi ai Funghi adorned with truffle oil.
Sweeten the feast with hand-crafted Cannolis, celebrating a stunning evening with a few more drinks and the buzz of a great time...
Applauded by Time Out and on Eater's list of "18 Excellent Places to Eat in Nolita", Epistrophy is a quaint, romantic oasis for locals and visitors alike who adore the allure of an Italian trattoria, minus the airfare. For your evening repast, expect organic, locally sourced fare and an assortment of libations sure to fuel an unforgettable night.
Sharing its name with the breakthrough bebop track by Thelonius Monk and Kenny Clarke, Epistrophy is encased in wide windows that peep into a warm interior, lending a romantic feel to this airy Nolita eatery. Snuggle up on couches, bask in the welcoming environment, and linger long after your last bite - it's how the Italians would do it!
Founded by Sardinian friends who fell in love with New York City and decided to make it their home, Epistrophy is one of those rare Italian restaurants you can count on for an enchanting experience. Add on curated wines, beers, and craft cocktails like the Spicy Kiss From Savoia (Tanteo Chipotle Tequila Savoia Americano, lime, house-made paloma soda).
Menu standouts include the Polpettine di Vitello (mini grass-fed veal & beef meatballs, white wine sauce, lemon zest), as well as mains like Bistecca di Tonno (quinoa-crusted tuna steak, truffled pea sauce, potatoes, fresh herbs) and Brasato al Cannonau (grass-fed beef short ribs braised with Cannonau red wine, fresh herbs, onions, organic stone-ground polenta).
Sit at the bar, relax on the couch, or find a spot at the community table - but wherever you sit, you’ll feel so at home you might never leave, especially after you bite into homemade Tiramisu...
All selections will be made from the restaurant's full dinner menu.
