Scarpetta
Scarpetta's New York flagship serves handmade pasta, crudi and shareable Italian mains inside the Hotel Seville NoMad, and the tomato and basil spaghetti is still the dish that built its name.
Scarpetta opened in 2008 with chef Scott Conant and moved to NoMad after a decade on West 14th Street; today it is LDV Hospitality's signature restaurant, with siblings in Las Vegas, Doha, Tokyo and London. The New York room sits at 88 Madison Avenue inside the Hotel Seville NoMad, formerly The James. Every pasta is made in house daily, and the spaghetti with tomato and basil remains the order, followed by duck and foie gras ravioli or short rib agnolotti. Crudi open the meal, whole fish finish it for the table, and three private dining rooms and a gala space take care of events.
Best for: Pasta-focused business dinners and celebrations
