    Great place in NYC! I didnt know what didn know what trapizzinos were prior to my visit but was pleasantly surprised. Picture this: fluffy, freshly baked almost like pizza dough pockets filled with the most mind-blowing combos of fillings you can imagine. Im talking meatballs, gooey mozzarella, zesty tomato sauce—pure bliss in every bite.Now, the vibes at Trapizzinos are cool and relaxed. Its not a fancy joint, but thats what makes it so darn awesome. Its like stepping into a bustling street food stall right in the heart of the city. The staff is super friendly and always ready to dish out some killer recommendations if youre not sure what to try.One thing that sets Trapizzinos apart is their commitment to top-notch ingredients. You can taste the difference, my friends. The dough is light and airy, and the fillings are so dang flavorful.Theyve got a few tables inside, but if those are taken, you can grab your trapizzinos to-go and find a cozy spot outside to chow down.

    The oxtail trapizzini alone is worth the trip. I went with an Italian friend on her recommendation and even she was impressed.

    What a gem of a place!! My partner and I stopped in for happy hour on a whim and were so happy we did. The patio is cute and the inside looked even cuter.Our server Beatrice made the entire visit purely magical from start to finish. They took the time to chat about flavour profiles of different spirits, to tell us about a specific cocktail recipe and just made us feel so welcome from start to finish. Beatrice is knowledgeable, professional, warm and efficient- a combo that is so hard to find in hospitality these days.We will be back each and every time we visit NYC and look forward to visiting the other locations in Italy later this summer!

    Awesome sit down spot for Italian street food with a great happy hour deal. The meatball and red sauce trappizinni (filled dough pocket) was dope, and so were all three types of arranzini. The special and cacio e pepe were the best rice balls. Solid Negroni too. Definitely coming back!

  • Review 5 (2024-05-27 - Rating: 4)

    What a cute little place! The cake was delicious! Great cappuccino! Service fantastic! Would definitely go back!

  • Review 6 (2019-11-02 - Rating: 5)

    Surprising and offbeat Italian place with a unique menu. The main trapizzino option is a sort of sandwich/pizza hybrid and perfect for someone who wants the flavor of a great pizza without the scale. They also have a deep-fried risotto option which is definitely worth trying. Great for sharing and very reasonably priced.

  • Review 7 (2023-06-01 - Rating: 4)

    Heard a lot about this place since it makes unique sandwiches. The braised oxtail sandwich was delicious minus the small bone that I almost broke my tooth on. Other than that it was a delicious sandwich. The bread was the star of the show. It was a cross between pizza dough and a roll. I want to try the other sandwiches when I come back. Cool spot.

  • Review 8 (2024-08-20 - Rating: 5)

    Had Trapizzino when visiting Rome and knew I had to visit it here in NYC. It was just as good as being back in Italy! I would come here everyday if I could!

  • Review 9 (2024-12-13 - Rating: 4)

    Absolutely delicious food and great ambiance, I enjoy coming to this place. Would definitely come more often though if the happy hour had better deals :)

  • Review 10 (2023-11-15 - Rating: 4)

    Got take away - food was tasty though portion size is on the small side, broccolini needed maldon. Service super friendly

  • Review 11 (2024-08-21 - Rating: 4)

    Moder take to Roma/northern Italy pockets. Short menu, good drink selection. A different option away from classical Italian all around the neighborhood if thats what you prefer.

  • Review 12 (2023-07-25 - Rating: 4)

    I’ve been here a few times and really like it. Delicious ice cappuccino and ricotta toast. Took a while for the staff to notice me but when they did they were super friendly and the service was fast. Will definitely come back again.

  • Review 13 (2023-03-14 - Rating: 5)

    Trapizzino was such a cute spot. I got a happy hour beer and a cocktail, both of which were excellent. Then my friend and I split some bites, which were all very good as well. For dessert we split an olive oil cake and it was heaven. Would definitely recommend this spot for a date or happy hour!

  • Review 14 (2022-05-09 - Rating: 5)

    Best Italian street food I’ve tried. My favorite is Coda Alla Vaccinara, which is 9 hours oxtail wrapped in soft but firm pizza bread. The Suppli risotto balls is a must try too.

  • Review 15 (2019-08-11 - Rating: 5)

    I wasnt sure if the New York location would be able to live up to its Roman counterpart. But I was pleasantly surprised! This place is just as good as the original. Great atmosphere, friendly service, tasty wine, and absolutely delicious Trapizzinos. I will be back (often).

    Nice and cozy place to talk and eat something light but delicious, all waitress are super nice and willing to help with the menu

  • Review 17 (2021-10-29 - Rating: 5)

    Immediately greeted with a warm smile which is always a great start to a review. Staff can truly make or break an establishment in this case they definitely make the establishment more enjoyable . Trappizino Is a Roman street food vibe with multiple locations in tine but only one in NYC( how lucky did I get to run into it ! ). I came before a dinner rush at 5 pm roughly , it was a grey windy day and I needed a hug after a long shift shift the night before left me drained, knowing I couldn’t openly ask a stranger for one I opted in for the next best option. Comfort food. Although Trappizino is sporting a half bar the list was still impressive. Who needs a full bar when you have a dope wine list , they are showcasing grapes ranging from falanghina to cesanese.Food wise I let the staff take the wheel to drive and what a great journey. Mateo did not disappoint when he suggested these beautiful crunchy sandwiches called Trappizino, when I got here I wasn’t sure what that meant!The first was oxtail . Tender stewed goodness inside of crunchy focaccia . What a way to play with layers of texture and savory umami , after I had the chicken trappizino , I was immediately taken aback by how much flavor was loaded into this chicken, it was as if they had been feeding the chicken garlic and Rosemary it’s entire life before it was put onto my plate Hary told me the meats take hours of preparation and it shows on the plate . He then suggested the fig Negroni , a young bartender curious about spirits , what he may lack in Italian digestif experience he makes up for in sheer enthusiasm and a precision of recipes, I look forward to seeing what he can contribute to our industry in the long term. Overall good service but anyone can do that. Hospitality is how you feel at the end of your service and I left feeling like I got the comfort of the hug I so desperately needed.Truly had an amazing experience Thank you Trappizino team for the hospitality.

    A staple for me after loving it in Rome. Cozy spot with delicious street food and hearty, flavorful ingredients like eggplant parmesan and coda. perfect place to enjoy some unique Italian street food. A must-visit!

  • Review 19 (2024-04-07 - Rating: 5)

    Started with risotto ball, it was average. Continued with ox tail sandwich, it was very flavorful. Pasta wasn’t on lunch menu, but chef obliged. Pesto was great! Ended with Espresso Martini.

  • Review 20 (2024-08-01 - Rating: 5)

    Excellent food, the service was A++, the bartender she was amazing and the drinks delicious. Definitely coming back soon.

  • Review 21 (2018-06-19 - Rating: 5)

    Just like Rome. I had been wanting to come here after having gone in Rome and finding out there was now one in NYC. The trapizzini are great, the fillings are clearly well cooked meals as opposed to just sandwich filler. The zucchini, garlic, and burrata one was fantastic. The chicken is a classic. The suppli were also perfect, just the right consistency inside to hold up to biting and setting back down. The one with mortadella was my favorite, but I believe they rotate the selection every day.I am not sure what the drink prices normally are because they had a World Cup special going on where wine and beer was $6. The rose was pretty good. All in all it was exactly what I was expecting, the space is also cool and comfortable, casual but still nice. The staff was really nice and helpful.

  • Review 22 (2019-11-19 - Rating: 5)

    Great way to enjoy traditional Roman stews and ragù in a portable foccacia/pizza bianca pocket. Would recommend the trapizzino con pollo alla cacciatora and the oxtail (coda). Also the suppli allamatriciana or alla carbonara, both traditional Roman recipes.

  • Review 23 (2024-07-12 - Rating: 4)

    Very cool place and the staff is awesome. We tried two trapizzini, the meatball and the chicken. The chicken was AMAZING! Not the biggest fan of the meatball.

  • Review 25 (2017-05-03 - Rating: 4)

    The pocket thing was really delicious. The bread was crunchy yet soft. The rice ball was bit disappointing. Too much crunch and not too much cheese in it. The wine we choose wasnt that great either. The atmosphere and their main menu I recommend.

  • Review 26 (2024-01-22 - Rating: 5)

    Absolutely incredible meal. The food quality was some of the best Italian I’ve ever had. The simplicity of the meals was really appreciated. But what really ate the meal what how nice our waiter Jason was. I can’t wait to come back!And the restaurant vibe was amazing.

  • Review 27 (2024-05-28 - Rating: 5)

    What a neighborhood gem! Everything on the menu is a winner. Foremost, their cocktails are wonderful! Beateice made great recommendations and her collection of Amari is VERY impressive. We love the Trappizini…but they offered a special Ethiopian Trapizino last week that was ridiculous! The pesto pasta is also perfection! Never had a bad meal here. I can’t wait to return soon!

  • Review 28 (2024-07-01 - Rating: 5)

    This place was so much fun! Small and cozy, with a very intimate vibe. Jason was our waiter and he was wonderful- patient, informative, and happy to give recommendations.The chicken trapazinni was so out of this world, I had to order a second. The starter yeast apparently has been used by 11 generations of bakers which is WILD! Such a cool piece of trivia. It was honestly so delicious, I’ll be dreaming of it. And the tiramisu was one of the best I’ve ever had. I cannot WAIT to come back here!Edit: came back two days in a row and my server for both times, Kelman, was phenomenal. The wait staff here do an excellent job and it makes me want to keep coming back and bringing friends.

    Great place for a quick bite. A casual drink or a long afternoon. Nice rotating trapizzini menu.

    The Pollo Trapizzino was 🆗️ but not what I expected. Could of been cooked better.🌯🥙

  • Review 31 (2019-04-02 - Rating: 5)

    Lunch spot today- Trapizzino 144 Orchard St NYC....extremely delicious new spot that is now on the rotation. So i tried the trapizzino & suppli, trapizzino is a house baked pizza pocket filled with classic, slow-cooked Italian receipes. The suppli is a roman risotto balls, hand rolled daily. My trapizzino choice today was the Coda alla Vaccinara- 9-hour braised oxtail, celery, red wine, tomato. So tasty and delicious was the oxtail it was like butter, the crunch and texture of the bread brought out how amazing the oxtail tasted making want another. For the suppli i went with the Classico- beef ragu, tomato, mozzarella, the size of a jumbo XL egg this was amazing also. The beautiful outside shell texture made the inside ingredients pop and marry perfectly together for a amazing bite. This is typical Italian street food taking to the next level and beyond, cant wait to return.....mamma mia

    Just walked by while being in NYC on our honeymoon. Warm staff, and had a good talk with: “Larry, harry, Arie”.. didn’t catch his name properly due to the facemasks.Good spot for a few cocktails in an amazing neighborhood.5 ⭐️

  • Review 33 (2018-06-29 - Rating: 5)

    I am not a vegetarian, but this parmesan on the home-based crusty, flaky, buttery bread sent me to the moon and back. Saying it is delicious is an understatement. Loved it and the sauce.

  • Review 34 (2017-03-03 - Rating: 5)

    Probably the most authentic and delicious italian food I had in NYC. You can tell that they only use the best ingredients which melt in your mouth, paired with a light but very crusty pocket of pizza bianca. We had the Coda alla Vaccinara, the Pollo alla Cacciatora & pinot grigio. 😍

  • Review 35 (2024-09-26 - Rating: 5)

    My favorite new Italian spot!

  • Review 36 (2022-06-03 - Rating: 5)

    So glad this place survived the pandemic. The environment, the music, and of course the food are amazing. Very affordable and tasteful.

    Cute place. Always nice to find a vegan option at an Italian restaurant!

  • Review 38 (2023-11-30 - Rating: 5)

    Quaint spot. We had never had a Trapazino, which is basically fresh focaccia bread with a filling. Get the chicken one, you won’t regret it - it’s marinated in a great white wine sauce. We enjoyed it so much we ordered two more. Great spot for a quick Italian snack.

  • Review 39 (2023-12-01 - Rating: 5)

    Im a fan of Trapizzino. Stumbled upon it with my boyfriend for some bites and have been back a few times since! Have yet to be disappointed.The supli or rice balls are delicious! Always get the trio!The sandwiches are also phenomenal! Im a huge fan of the oxtail but also tried the eggplant, and chicken and they were all great. The kale salad is a must have to get some greens in your meal. The pasta tasted homemade and was sauced perfectly! Have tried the pesto and the Ragu!! Yum!Finish off with the DELICIOUS olive oil cake! You wont regret it. Meal for two with tip could run you anywhere from 80-$130 depending on how hungry you are as everything is its own plate and the servings are perfect to share a few plates which is what you should do when coming here! I dont drink so cant speak on the cocktails, but I eat so good here! Will be back.

  • Review 40 (2024-09-03 - Rating: 5)

    Tried it in Italy in Turin and Rome, and saw this one while walking in ny and stopped by. Highly recommended. Always get a suppli and a trapizzino. 🫶🏽

  • Review 43 (2023-08-08 - Rating: 5)

    We visited Trapizzino, which is famous for their trapizzini, randomly. The decor & ambiance is adorable and cozy.Both appetizers we had were delicious. We got their signature Trapizzini and Classico Suppli.Trapizzini is authentic street food from Rome. We had braised oxtail and it was flavorful with tender texture.Their Classico Suppli was impressively satisfying. It’s too good to only have one order with its crispy layer & cheesy and flavorful filling.

  • Review 44 (2023-06-13 - Rating: 5)

    This is a lovely restaurant in The Lower East Side. They serve Italian Street Food in a beautiful setting. The music that was playing transports you to another place and time. I had the Ricotta Toast which was absolutely 😋. I drank a Peroni which is an Italian Lager. The service is very good. The waiter was super attentive. The prices are very affordable which is rare these days especially at such a nice restaurant. I plan to return and try some more dishes.

    Great spot for Italian bites and wine. Solid cocktails as well. Would recommend to stop in for at least a drink if not dinner. Get the Suppli!

  • Review 50 (2017-05-12 - Rating: 5)

    Its the crunch on the outside which then goes softer as you bite through to pick up some of the oxtail ragu that really gets you. At that point you realise its not pizza, its better than pizza. 🎩

  • Review 53 (2022-02-26 - Rating: 5)

    This place was a great find. Its a small restaurant thats perfect for a date. It has small counter seating and a few small tables. Its probably not great for large groups given the space. The menu is small mostly featuring its namesake trapizzini sandwiches. We started with the fried risotto balls and crispy artichokes, both were fantastic and quite filling. I then had the Nonnas beef meat ball trapizzini which was SOOO good and definitely filling. Even though I was full I ordered the cacao e pepe which was not a huge portion so it complimented my sandwich nicely. It too was quite good. They have a relatively small wine list which could be improved on but I would definitely return as the food was good and it was a nice environment for a quiet dinner.

  • Review 55 (2022-01-06 - Rating: 4)

    Great ambiance, amazing dessert, and everything was delicious individually but it felt really, really heavy. It’s basically like a huge chunk of bread and stew eaten with giant arancinis so it was kind of a gut bomb. So it was great to eat but honestly I don’t feel great after eating it.

  • Review 56 (2018-11-28 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing pizza-sandwich-triangles! Ive had 4 different kinds and they were all great. Be sure to get the ox tail! 2 triangles is pretty filling. Really good glass of wine too. Maybe better than their location in Rome...

    Just caught this place on Taste insider on Facebook. Love the corner location. I purchased the eggplant Trapizzino and a beef risotto ball. The bread is perfection! Crispy and just the right amount of chewiness. Did not get hard by the end of consumption. Ingredients were very fresh tasting.Risotto ball was nicely fried, and the mozzarella in the center was an excellent touch. Keep up the great work!

    My Fiance and I heard about this place when we were vacationing in Georgia and it did not disappoint. It’s a hole in the wall but don’t judge a book by its cover.

    Very friendly service, love being able to taste test some fillings and wine before making your selection. The bread is crunchy and soft. The oxtail filling is super rich in the best way, beef flank was my favourite, eggplant was also very delicious. Arrancini are very crispy on the outside and the mozzarella stretch is incredible .

  • Review 67 (2023-06-04 - Rating: 5)

    I stumbled across Trapizzino after a gym session and it turned out to be a hidden gem in Lower East Side. This Italian restaurant specializes in Roman street food, which is a refreshing change from the usual Italian fare found elsewhere. The atmosphere of the place is perfect for a cozy and relaxed dine-out experience accompanied by a glass of wine. The food was excellent, and a good value for the neighborhood. While dinner and drinks in the East Manhattan area can add up to over $80, most food items on the menu are under $15!I ended up trying an appetizer, their signature trapizzini and rigatoni, for under 45$ including tip. Not bad at all for a three course dinner.

    I have returned here multiple times for the tasty and affordable food!! I would recommend the POLLO ALLA CACCIATORA trapizzino. I have also had the eggplant, and oxtail ones, but so far the chicken is my favorite. The waiters are super nice!! The olive oil cake for dessert is very unique and delicious.

  • Review 72 (2018-04-20 - Rating: 5)

    Great staff, it was not crowded but there were people there, it was a very cool, chill place, food was delish, and the wine was even good. The aracini balls were a bit greasy so just take a probiotic. The chicken and rosemary sandwich was heavenly! The staff gave us samples and we enjoyed. My son liked it all. And they are open until 3 AM! Check them out. Had their cacio aranci ball at Panorama as well and it was tasty there too! Check them out--but take a probiotic!

    A great reminder of sitting in cafes in Bologna, Firenze (Florence) and Roma (Rome) - the suppli were scrumptious. Wine selection was yummy. Olive oil cake was wonderful. Only change would be adding silverware and not plastic forks.

We had the Roman lentil & bean soup, pollo alla cacciatora and coda alla caccinara trapizzini’s. We were blown away by the flavor!!! Everything was excellent and the staff was me very helpful.

    We were simply walking by and were drawn in to the peaceful atmosphere. Amazing service AND INCREDIBLE FOOOOD. Im so grateful we found this gem. Our trip to New York wouldnt have been complete without it!!

    The Pizza Bianca(the bread) is super legit. As good if not better than anything you can find in Rome. Slow food fast. So much rich, savory flavor packed into every bite. Recs: oxtail ragu, eggplant parm, pollo alla cacciatora

  • Review 88 (2022-03-30 - Rating: 5)

    Delicious and fresh food. Stumbled upon this place by accident. Will now be bringing friends back to try it. Oxtail Trapizzino is a must! Place is small though- so just be aware.

  • Review 89 (2017-07-30 - Rating: 5)

    Honestly some of the best food Ive had in my 7 years in NYC. The herbs really shine and everything we tried was terrific. Highly recommend.

  • Review 90 (2018-11-18 - Rating: 5)

    Very Italian flavours, some creative dishes like trapizzino with veal tongue, parsley and Gaetas olives.. Doppia panna (burrata and sicilian anchovies) is pure decadence

  • Review 91 (2022-03-20 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing street food! The trapizzino is a little expensive for what you get - I got the burrata, and it wasn’t as big as I expected. However, definitely high quality ingredients and freshly made.I will definitely come back for more food try! The waiters are Italian so you are definitely in good hands!

  • Review 92 (2023-05-13 - Rating: 5)

    Had a chicken and an eggplant Trappazini and carciofi alla Giuliano- crispy artichokes. All very good! Pleasant relaxed atmosphere.

  • Review 93 (2017-12-21 - Rating: 5)

    Nice place to stay. You can try the flavor. Fried rice ball are creamy with cheese inside. The tomato base taste nice. I like the beef and the eggplant one.

  • Review 94 (2018-11-18 - Rating: 4)

    Little slice, or should I say pocket?, of contemporary Rome. Its not your mom and pop joint sure, but its run by one of the eternal citys own providing cuisine that youll actually find in the streets he grew up on. This is real Roman food. Where else are you going to find and enjoy beef tongue with anchovies and parsley on the LES? And its cheap! Whats not to like?

  • Review 95 (2017-04-30 - Rating: 5)

    I used to live around the corner from the first Trapizzino in Rome, and I pleasantly surprised to see (and taste) how true to the original this place is. Trapizzino with chicken alla cacciatora and supplì (Rice ball) with broccoli and Sicilian anchovies were both excellent. Very friendly and prompt service, too.

  • Review 96 (2023-03-10 - Rating: 5)

    Honestly had never had a trapizzino before (I ordered the POLLO ALLA CACCIATORA one - I know the picture is not great) but it was so delicious! Paired it with a delicious espresso martini, and was super happy (~$36 including tip). Service was also great, the place is very cute, and the ambiance was on point. Will definitely coming back!

  • Review 97 (2017-02-27 - Rating: 4)

    The bread is fantastic and according to the chefs its organic and made in-house. We only ordered two bites, the Lingua In Salsa Verde and the Suppli Classico. The Lingua is veal tongue, parsley, and gaeta olives and it was superb. I assume they use very little salt to almost no salt [in proportion to] because the parsley and gaeta flavors were subtle and tasted un-enhanced. Im bet in the restaurant industry its blasphemy not to season properly, but I really appreciate how my mouth wasnt slammed with sodium and I was, lack of a better term, forced to appreciate the ingredients. The veal tongue was tender and had a similar texture to that of a boiled bratwurst sans the casing.The Suppli Classico was okay.Aside from the obvious disappointment from the staff when we only ordered two items instead of two items each person, I hope this place does well because I appreciate what they are creating and sharing with New Yorkers and not to mention the location is charming and sun filled so its a great spot to park yourself and enjoy a few more than just one bite per person.

    Perfect for quick bite. For the price of supermarket sandwich you will get a fresh triangular bread with a delicious filling. Vegetarian friendly

    A fantastic snack. Delivery is punctual and follows instructions. Both the Parmigiana Trapizzini and the Cacio e Pepe Suppli were delicious.

  • Review 100 (2018-11-02 - Rating: 5)

    Not your typical Italian food, so don’t expect to order pasta or pizza. What you get is something a little different, but the execution is top notch. Definitely recommend.

    I used to live in Rome and eat trapizzino on a weekly basis. When I heard they opened up a location in New York, I had to make the drive from Virginia to eat one again. The 4-hour drive was so worth being able to eat my favorite meatball trappazino again! It tasted just like it did back in Italy! The suppli and service was excellent as well and I can’t wait to make another trip back.

    The hospitality was as amazing as the food. If you are in the area and adorable Italian sandwiches, do yourself a favor and order a baked pocket of heaven.

  • Review 110 (2022-04-08 - Rating: 5)

    My husband and I were in the area and just finished dinner. We were looking for a place to get some quality dessert and decided to come here based on the other reviews. The ambience was nice and romantic- it was around 8 at night and raining outside so the lighting was nice and perfect. We ordered the tiramisu and I ordered a spritz drink (forgot the name). The tiramisu was amazingly delicious, creamy, with bites of chocolate but it was not intensely sweet, it was just perfect!! The drink was delicious too, refreshing and floral-only complaint that it had to much ice compared to drink. Prices were good too. We really wanted to try the food but had dinner beforehand- so we got the Pollo alla Cacciatorna to go after asking the waiter if he recommended it- just to try the food to see if we’d like it and wanted to come back! It was so delicious- like a panini pocket- the chicken was juicy tender and so flavorful and the bread was nice and moist and fresh as well!! My husband and I will definitely be coming back- with empty stomachs this time to try more of the food!!! Highly highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for a quick snack, delicious quick bite or just to drink some coffee!! Lastly the waiters were really nice and attentive!!! I’d give 10 stars if I could to this place!! It’s such a little gem!

  • Review 111 (2018-11-03 - Rating: 5)

    Can you say no to this food? They serve it only in NYC and Italy. The meat is tender and delicious. Small place so it can get crowded, but who cares, the food is amazing. :)

  • Review 112 (2022-02-26 - Rating: 5)

    I am a fan of the location in Testaccio, Rome (see my review), this was the first time I tried the one in NYC and it didnt disappoint me. I came yo try it because I really miss Trapizzino. Its hard to tell the difference with the food of the other locations in Italy (which is great). Its somewhat different from the traditiona trapizzino place in the sense that this is more like restaurant rather than fast food. Atmosphere is nice, music selection is great and the service is outstanding. One of the few places in the city where you can find a traditional supplì.As always, the best trapizzino is Pollo alla Cacciatora.

  • Review 113 (2018-10-03 - Rating: 5)

    Great service couldn’t be a better place to stop and feel like you’re welcome. I literally went in and said give me the best and spent $11. Whooooohhh so good. Restaurant deserves more business, and I wish there were more like this. You can tell he’s passionate and cares about what he’s delivering to you. Would I go back?? I’d take my NYC friends here. Amazing

    The food at Trapizzino never disappoints! It’s the perfect little casual yet intimate Italian spot with the friendliest staff ever. The trapizzini are phenomenal and the bread they use is so fresh that it almost melts in your mouth. My favorite is the “doppia panna” trapizzini with a cacio e pepe suppli on the side.

  • Review 119 (2022-06-06 - Rating: 5)

    I came here on a weekday afternoon for lunch. I ordered their signature meatball pizza pocket. It came out fast, as its just a meatball inside a piece of bread. It was good, if not a bit plain. The service was great and the waitress was friendly. Overall, the place has good vibes.

    Open late. The apps are both delicious & huge so be careful!We didn’t get the not-pizza - which our waitress rightfully told us was a mistake. Two of us were quite hungry, so we ordered three apps, fully planning to get a pizza - but we were way too full after the starters to keep going. Everything was so good, solid portions, and we left so full we needed to walk to a farther train station. Will be back, hopefully many times to come.

    I am so glad a friend of mine brought me here. The food was exceptional, and I cant wait to re-visit. There were several pocket sandwich choices there and I went with the Padellaccia di Miale (heritage pork), and a Doppia Panna (stracciatella cheese and anchovies). The pork was honestly one of the best Ive ever had and the smooth creamy cheese contrasted perfectly with the high-quality anchovy. They have beers, wine. coffee and dessert as well. A great place to enjoy in NYC!
