Scalini Fedeli ranked among New York's finest restaurants since its opening in early 2004, taking Italian cuisine to new heights. Rewarded with the highest overall ratings in the Zagat Survey, Scalini Fedeli has been granted one star by the Michelin guide in it's inaugural 2006 issue. The inviting decor features vaulted ceilings and European antiques and provides the perfect setting for chef Michael Cetrulo's delightful cuisine which offers the finest ingredients coupled with a confidence and grace that ensures your meal will be a memorable one. Menu highlights include soft egg yolk raviolo with ricotta and truffle butter and New York's finest venison chop in a port wine and balsamic vinegar sauce with toasted hazelnuts, sautéed spinach and roasted Mission figs. The 350-bottle wine list encompasses all regions of Italy but also does justice to the best American wineries.

    The room is gorgeous and everything seemed top notch until the food arrived. The veal scallopini was tough and grisled and a chore to get through. The Amatriciana was interesting and not at all bad. It just bore almost no resemblance to the dish I enjoyed so many times in Italy and at other Italian restaurants in NYC. One server was clueless about pretty much everything and it was self-serve on coats in the coat room. Not a premium experience.

    Year after year, Scalini Fedeli is has most reliably exceptional food, service and atmosphere. Better than so many Michelin starred trendy new restaurants. Right up there with Daniel, Per Se, and Jean Georges.

    The restaurant was elegant, comfortable and the staff were impeccable in every way. They knew what you needed,, or desired before you - The service incredible. we were there to celebrate 2 family birthdays. It is not an experience I will forget. The food both the primi and the main were outstanding, with many options. the dessert soufflé amazing - and really the entire experience was just beautiful and perfect.

    Scalini was excellent and I would highly recommend! When I made the reservation, I did not realize the menu was only a prix-fixe. This is not noted online (unless I missed it) when I was searching for Tribeca Italian restaurants. However, at the price (approx $90pp) it was a tremendous value as the portions were plentiful, there were several enhancements including an amuse, appetizer, bread service, and palate cleanser, and the cuisine and staff were exceptional. The restaurant is beautiful, feels Mediterranean inspired, and is candlelit. A true sanctuary with delicious Italian cuisine in a superb Tribeca location. Would definitely go back and would come with an emptier stomach! It was a LOT of food! 10/10. Grazie!

    Awesome food, service and ambience. We had the spaghetti arrabiatta and the ricotta gnocchi to start. The sauces on both were delish and the gnocchi were true pillows of love! Dinner was the sole livornese and the pork chop. The fish was perfectly cooked in an amazing sauce. The pork chop was tender and huge! Desert was a flourless chocolate cake and an apple tart - both exceptional accompanied by creamy gelato. Highly recommend!

    Amazing cuisine, exquisitely seasoned and presented. The level of service equally matched the quality of the food, and the ambiance was upscale yet relaxed. Drinks were significantly overpriced, but the value of the pre fixe dinner still made it reasonable overall. We'll definitely be back!

    Went for my sisters birthday dinner and we both loved this restaurant. I found it more relaxing to have a pre fix menu choice and the options were numerous. I loved the house made pasta and pappardelle .. also the shrimp main course was amazing. The wine list was extensive but it would’ve been nice to see a rose option on it . Definitely would recommend and return. Thank you

    An old favorite that never fails to disappoint, Scalini Fedeli delivered once again, making our daughter's 30th birthday celebration a night to remember. In the warm, candlelit ambiance, we were met with three delicious small bites while we made our decisions. (we all thought "just bring us 10 of those"). All courses were delivered with care, hot, pretty and simply scrumptious. Be sure to leave room for dessert. The panino is to die for.
