“ Any restaurant in NYC that's been around since 1906 must be tried. So here I am for restaurant week, trying the next restaurant on the Row of Restaurants at 46th street between 8th and 9th. To begin, this is an absolutely beautiful restaurant, both outside and in the patio dining area, complete with a fountain. You can't beat restaurant week deals, so 3 courses for $45 is a steal. Now for the experience. Yall know I'm a #sobersista do a menu without mocktails...well, it has to be noted. Plenty of wine for the winos tho. Now for the food. Bread should always be served with warm, SPREADABLE, butter, especially when the bread is delicious and warm. My first course is linguine with pesto. Chef's kiss on flavor (though I did add more salt.). One of my two knives was dirty, so there's that. Second course was a tender beef with red wine reduction/sauce with green mashed potatoes. DE-LI-CIOUS!!! Tender tender tender beef, and the potatoes were smooth and creamy. Dessert was an orange chocolate mousse, and I devoured it! The meal was very satisfying. The service was top notch. Not a moment passed that my water glass was not filled and I was checked on consistently throughout my meal. Definitely a fine dining experience! ”

“ Big fan of Barbetta! Very old school Italian servers in a beautiful, classic white table cloth restaurant. They make a mean cocktail here, come around with unlimited bread, the food is very good, and they are accommodating of your time based on when you need to leave if you're seeing a show. What's not to love? I believe your only option is a prefix before 8pm but it's a really good deal. Appetizer, dinner salad, entree, dessert. We all really enjoyed our meals and our time here! Would recommend dining here if you are seeing a show nearby. ”

“ Had dinner here after our matinee. The ambiance is great. Old school fine dining. Sat outdoors since it was 4:30pm on a sunny Saturday afternoon. Lovely outdoor space. Service was attentive. They only had the Theatre Price Fixx menu in effect. Choice of an appetizer, a main and a dessert, coffee and salad included, for $63 per person. I started with the buffalo mozzarella, had the charcoal grilled swordfish as my main, and had the orange chocolate mousse as my dessert (with a decafe cappuccino). All were fresh and delicious. (My only quibble is that I thought both the appetizer and the main could have been larger). The bill, with drinks (I had three Peroni's) tax and a generous tip came to $125 per person. Will definitely return after our next matinee. ”

“ Located in the Theatre District, Barbetta is a timeless, classy, & historic establishment serving top - notch dining. Food - 9/10, the unlimited warm rolls were to die for, the food is delectable. However, we were unaware that the dinner menu is prix-fixed & many items we wanted to try were not on that menu. Drinks - 10/10...the wine variety is extensive Service - 10/10 - white gloved with attention to detail, definition of "fine dining" Atmosphere - classy, yet a homely warm feeling, as if you're having Sunday dinner at a wealthy relative's home Parking - located next to numerous trains and buses - would not recommend trying to find parking here Vegan friendly - Yes They also play happy birthday on the piano which is such a nice touch. ”

“ Came here during restaurant week for a decent 3-course $45 meal deal I'd come back for. 3 courses, wine not included but offered at reasonable price. Each course was subpar (even without normalizing for price) but the experience was wonderful. The decadent outdoor space let me imagine myself as a New York elite dining in this city oasis, located in the yard space of a theatre district brownstone. Staff were highly attentive with great service. Our order. 1.1) linguine -- distastefully firm, though sauce was reasonable. Sizeable portion for a first course. 1.2) red sauce pasta -- underwhelming; sauce was pleasantly sweet but nothing special. Small portion. 2.) Salmon was decent. Humble presentation with subtly seasoned broiled salmon, though the herb sauce helped. 3.) we got both the pears and strawberries. Perhaps attributable to my non-Piemontese palate, the red wine sauce the pears were soaked in tasted too artificial for me to not be repulsed. Strawberries themselves were not noteworthy and the zabaglione (imo indiscernible from mildly flavored whipped cream) didn't add much. ”
