Pescatore
- Italian
- New York, NY
About this business
Pescatore is a vibrant restaurant on 2nd Avenue, that prides itself on serving up some of the best Italian seafood in all of New York City. You can choose to seat yourself out on the sidewalk, in either of the two ground floor dining rooms, upstairs, or on the little second floor balcony. As far as the food is concerned, dishes like Grilled Whole Bronzino, Gamberi, and Grilled Lamb Chop rule the roost. The pizzas come highly recommended too, as they are made in brick ovens, and the staff is highly obliging.

Been there, done that! – With so many choices available to us in the city, may I suggest you venture elsewhere to satisfy your craving for fine Italian cuisine? I was there recently with a group of friends which gave me the opportunity to sample the menu. There was nothing that offended the senses, but there was also nothing notable to speak of. Instead the place manages to offer average fare, served by an inexperienced wait staff.
Good Ambience but not good food – I went to Pescatore on a Thursday. Excellent ambience, service was good but so dissapointed w/ the food. We ordered fried calamari for appetizer and it was gummy, linguini with clam sauce was dry. My friend ordered ravioli it was nothing special. You only pay for the ambience though.
Just great – Had a very enjoyable dinner here. The food was great and the service was attentive (but not overbearing). Very relaxed, but classy. Highly recommended.
EXCELLENT – I have been dining at Pescatore for the past 3 years and absolutely love it, the service is always fantastic and the food delicious. Even on Valentine's day last year the service was impeccable, how many restaurants can you say that about in NYC!
Happy Anniversary – The food melts in your mouth, the service is great and you'll definitely want to go back here and enjoy another great tasting dinner.
1 of 4 favorites in area – Sushi Rose, Murphy's Pub, Oriental Noodle & Pescatore are my 4 frequented spots in this area - diverse yet all very good. appetizers were good, mixed greens & calamari & veal francese were my favorite orders. bread little hard but dipped in olive oil & balsamic was good. svc could be better. a little tight for table of 3-4. nice to sit by balcony except during hot humid weather. SUM IT: give this a try, a little pricey for this area but it's good food.
One Big Dissapointment! – What it seems to be a nice restaurant from the outside could turn into a very mediocre experience while sitting down. Our apetizers took quite a while to be served, in fact, while all the other tables that sat way after us were being served I asked the waiter what happened to our appetizers, the calamari was tough; The entrees were tasteless and really!, one have to be really bad to mess a simple pasta dish. Pitty!
Nice place. – I looked this place here, on citysearch, and decided to try it. Went there with my friends, one of them was an editor for Departure magazine (luxury travel, food and wine). He used to dining at the best restaurants and he was surprised how great this place was. Food, service and atmosphere were way above your regular restaurant. Try it and see for yourself.
How tacky! – Our meal was very nice and the service - eh, nothing to rave about. The waitress took us as tourists and hand wrote a message about tipping 20%. After paying she returned and demanded a higher tip.
