La Pecora Bianca

Located in the space that previously housed the popular Isabella’s. Offers a Italian dining experience in a bright, sophisticated space. Known for its farm-to-table approach, the restaurant serves authentic Italian cuisine featuring house-made pastas like the signature rigatoni vodka and tagliatelle Bolognese, alongside fresh, locally sourced pizzas, salads, and seasonal dishes. The menu blends traditional flavors with modern touches, and is complemented by a well-curated wine list and a lively cocktail program including aperitivo hour favorites.

It’s a neighborhood favorite offering brunch, lunch, and dinner with a focus on quality ingredients and balanced flavors. The location’s proximity to the American Museum of Natural History makes it a convenient dining stop for locals and visitors alike. Whether enjoying a meal in the indoor dining room or the outdoor seating, guests can expect consistent quality and authentic taste in a chic Upper West Side setting. My personal favorite is the Tagliatelle (beef and pork bolognese). Located at 359 Columbus (corner of 77th Street). 212.300.9870 https://www.lapecorabianca.com/
