Upper Manhattan, Manhattan · restaurant
Northern Italian kitchen in Hamilton Heights where the owner is a Swiss-American composer-saxophonist who curates live jazz on Sunday afternoons — thus the Gnocchi con Gorgonzola e Pere arrives with actual musicians rather than a playlist. The pasta is housemade, the menu is seasonal, and the room has that narrow, candlelit warmth that makes you stay for dessert.
Happy hour runs Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun, 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM.
