Basso Est
A small, busy Italian restaurant on the Lower East Side (Basso Est), in a side street of East Houston. The trendy Orchard Street feels like Berlin in miniature. It’s the place to be for second-hand shoes and vintage furniture. Friday and Saturday are particularly packed with young people looking for the cocktail happy hour. Features only authentic Italian dishes on the menu. Try the CAPELLINI FRUTTI DI MARE E ARUGULA or one of the other pastas as an appetizer. Glance at the menu, forget what’s on it, and ask for one of the daily specials. In a charming accent, three appetizers, pasta dishes and main courses will be listed effortlessly. The restaurant’s décor is simple. You might almost walk past it – but the food and service make it worth walking back. And the prices are basso, too!
