Emilio's Ballato

The unique place for the whole NYC where the owners are having the policy of no phones and no ways to make the reservations. This is the VIPs like Lenny Kravits and Barack Obama are having their regular dinner at. If you are wondering what is so special about this place? Well,firstly the Litlle Italy is the place where it is hard to find the decent Italian restaurant that follows the traditions of the country, most of the pizzerias in Litle Italy are pretty influenced with the American culture. However, the Emilio's Ballato is the restaurant that shows the old-fashioned Italian interior and design of the room is lit with crystal chandeliers with the framed photos of celebrities which are lined with faded walls. The service is deadpan and the food is spectacular, don’t you dare skip the winelist since the experience of having the well-trained wine servers is precious. On the menu, you can find the antipasto platter, baked clams, and homecooked tagliatelle Bolognese.
