NileGuide Expert Says:
The flagship of Mario Batali's collection of Italian restaurants, Babbo turns out generous portions of delicious, inventive food. Some of the more daring choices include beef-cheek ravioli, pig-foot "Milanese" and a salad of warm lamb's tongue.
Description:
- Celebrity chef Mario Batali and restaurateur Joe Bastianich have come together to create the ultimate Italian dining experience in New York City. A giant stairway dominates the main dining room, set off by pale wood paneling and an abundance of fresh flowers. The Italian fare is often reinvented classics; for example, before Babbo opened you would not normally find beef cheek raviolis on a menu. Bastianich and Batali are also co-owners in the highly successful Italian restaurants Esca and Lupa.

Excellent!

This is, by far, the best restaurant I've even been to. Each of the courses was absolutely wonderful, although dessert was OK, but not as good as the others. Will be back again.

The wine pairing tasting menu is to die for. They have been some of the best meals I have had in my entire life.
