Da Tommy Osteria is a charming Italian Restaurant located in the West Village. With a tavern like feel the comfy space allows guests to relax and enjoy the authentic Italian cuisine including homemade pastas made onsite. A wonderful selection of Italian wines are available along with a varied cocktail menu to complement the meal or if you are relaxing at the bar for the evening.
Tommy the owner is a young and charming Restaurateur who chose a tasting menu for us of some of his favorite dishes. We started with the beet salad with fresh goat cheese. Followed by a zucchini cake with truffle fondue that was delicious, I’m usually not a big fan of zucchini. The grilled octopus was cooked and seasoned perfectly.
We tasted a few homemade pastas, but the downright favorite was the award winning Genovese style “Trophie Al Pesto” by chef Alfio Longo. The Pappardelle ai Funghi with homemade Pappardelle, Mushrooms, Asparagus, and Truffles is a must try.
For the entree the “Branzino al Forno” is highly recommended. Pan roasted Sea Bass with olives, capers, vegetables, in a white wine sauce. Other chicken, steak and seafood options are also available.
As requested we left room for dessert. The Creme Brûlée was creamy and light and the Tiramisu was baked just right.
