When a restaurant becomes known for a dish as simple as spaghetti with tomato and basil, you know it’s going to be something special. And Scarpetta continues to deliver in every way, handmaking pasta on the daily — seasonal produce aplenty — with the same attentive service and luxe feel that made it so renowned.
About Scarpetta
The restaurant's name is derived from the Italian expression, "fare la scarpetta," which means to savor a meal to the last bite. In 2008, Scarpetta received a James Beard nomination for 'Best New Restaurant in America' as well as a coveted three-star review from the New York Times.
The philosophy of Scarpetta's kitchen is one of creating bold flavors by amplifying the essence of seasonal ingredients. The signature pastas are made in-house daily and are paired with the highest quality, locally sourced ingredients. Scarpetta's famous Spaghetti Tomato & Basil is nothing short of classic simplicity in both taste and preparation.
