There’s something undeniably cinematic about summer in New York. Picture the sun bouncing off the Hudson, the skyline glittering, and a leisurely picnic unfolding with the kind of effortless elegance Italians have perfected for generations. Perfectly positioned at Market 57 right along the Hudson River, Al Volo invites you to embrace the city outdoors, grabbing your picnic box before a sunset stroll along the The High Line, stretching out on the rooftop park at Pier 57, or wandering over to Little Island.
Grab your $39 pulse (a $72 value) for a Picnic Box For Two that includes 2 Focaccia Sandwiches, 2 Salads, and 2 Sodas or Waters, all encased in a handy Al Volo Picnic Box.
Meaning “on the fly” in Italian, Al Volo captures the spirit of modern Italian street culture through food that feels both timeless and perfectly attuned to New York. Under the vision of founder Francesco Realmuto (aka the Sicilian hospitality force behind L’Arte del Gelato & Filaga Pizzeria) Al Volo celebrates the Italian way of life: simple pleasures, beautiful ingredients, and moments meant to be savored slowly.
Inside the Picnic Box For Two awaits two focaccia sandwiches, from creamy Burrata Mediterranea and silky Mortadella e Provolone to indulgent Chicken Parm, Prosciutto Crudo e Mozzarella, or rich Eggplant Parm. Alongside them, salads like the crisp Cesare Salad or Pomodoro e Cipolla Rossa bring bright Mediterranean flavors that feel tailor-made for warm weather. Chilled sodas or waters accompany every bite as boats drift across the Hudson.
It’s the kind of deliciously spontaneous summer adventure that feels straight out of Italy, only with Manhattan’s skyline as your backdrop...
Set against one of Manhattan’s most enviable waterfront locales, Al Volo captures the romance of Italy. Nestled inside Market 57, aka the Hudson River culinary destination curated under the mentorship of the James Beard Foundation, Al Volo sits steps from Little Island, the sweeping pathways of The High Line, and some of the city’s most breathtaking views.
At the heart of the Eater-celebrated Al Volo is Francesco Realmuto, a Sicilian-born hospitality visionary whose passion for authentic Italian craftsmanship has shaped some of New York’s most beloved culinary concepts. Through his Realmuto Hospitality Group, Realmuto has introduced acclaimed gems including L’Arte del Gelato, Filaga Pizzeria, and Realmuto Alta Pasticceria Italiana, each devoted to celebrating the richness, tradition, and elegance of Italian cuisine.
Alongside Realmuto, Al Volo’s culinary identity is elevated by chefs Romulo Barrientos and Jaime Candia Villano, whose combined experience brings depth, creativity, and precision to the kitchen. Barrientos developed his ingredient-driven approach through respected kitchens including Puya Tacos de Puebla and Ficuzza Cucina Siciliana & Pizza, while Candia Villano honed his craft working alongside renowned chefs such as Jean-Georges Vongerichten and at the Michelin-starred Agern under Gunnar Karl Gíslason.
Whether you dine inside the market, head upstairs to the rooftop park at Pier 57, or take your focaccia and sips for a stroll along the river, the entire experience feels like an Italian summer unfolding in the middle of Manhattan...
All selections will be made from the restaurant's full picnic box menu.
