• When you order the Budino for dessert, ask for a side of breadsticks to enjoy the best pocky you've ever tasted.

  by Lisa E.

  
  

• Try the roast chicken, but feel free to share it, as it's literally a half of a chicken. And try the rigatoni

  by Tim M

  
  

• It's been over a year and I still have fond memories of the gnocchi!

  by Hien L.

  
  

• amazing service!!! the food was delicious! the portions are just perfect!

  by Theresa J

  
  

• Everything was delicious, the kale salad was so fresh and flavorful. Great outside option for a sunny day, with walls that fully open so even if inside, you feel outside

  by Jessica J

  
  

• The interior decor was underwhelming & reminded me of an old factory. The chicken didn't stand out to me as the inside was dry despite a very flavorful skin. Gnocchi & kale salad were pretty good.

  by Ashley J

  
  

• The appetizers were delicious, wine selection was nice. The steak and chicken plates left a lot to be desired. Definitely expected a better meal considering how highly the waiter spoke of the food.

• Get Pollo al Forno

  by Howard J

  
  

• Not my favorite kind of place (more posh than food) but fun when it's nice out to hang out in the hood. Split a salad and the chicken. Potatoes looked good. Pasta was overwhelming.

  by Jeff W.

  
  

• Amazingly comfortable in the spring when the garage doors are opened. Delicious roast chicken, the off menu bucatini carbonara, and rosemary potatoes. Good 4 people watching and casual eating ❤️

  by Angie J.

  by C S.

• They really do have one of the best roasted chickens in NYC. Also, don't forget the potatoes—they are crack.

  by Lenny G.

  by Saarim N

  
  

• Can't beat the location in summer and the food is on point, finely executed Italian fare. Delish!

  by Charlotte Scarf

  
  

• Get a table outside or its noisy as a primary School yard! Food is ok

  by Kaiser M

  
  

• Served with an Italian salsa verde redolent of anchovies and capers, the half chicken is every bit as good as it ever was, perhaps better.

  by Eater

  
  

• I never thought I could get so excited about roast chicken.

  by Allison K.

  
  

• Wide open windows, trendy atmosphere & great food make this west village spot great for a dinner on a summer weeknight with good company. Gnocchi was 💯 & shrimp was 👍🏻. Really can't go wrong.

  by Meg Farmer

  
  

• Great chefs table food was out of this world especially pasta and chicken.

  by James C.

  by Karl S.

  
  

• If you don't get the roast chicken, you're doing it wrong. Huge portion sizes and lively atmosphere. West Village fav.

  by Mike N.

  
  

• The fiddlehead bruschetta is made by angels. Main portions are large, so it's better to share a few plates.

  by Justin T

  by Jorge U.

  
  

• Chicken is definitely fantastic but this place changed my perception about gnocchi and made me think gnocchi can be extremely tasty.

  by Asahi, pls.

  
  

• the roasted chicken and the gnocchi are to die for, have olives and rocca salad for starters and enjoy the mixture of flavors

  by May A

  
  

• Awesome new age Italian food at this popular restaurant with huge garage doors. Unfortunately the wait for a table can be very long so we sat outside which was tolerable with the heat coming through

  by Tyler L.

  by Andrew C.

  
  

• We loved the Kale salad. Of course the chicken is the star.

  by Sherie S.

  
  

• Chicken obviously

  by FoodandLash Lash

  
  

• The chicken is flavorful and a stable here, but I also love the gnocchi, zuppa soup, and the crostata.

  by Tommy Chen

  
  

• Not for me. I was forced to get something that I was not in the mood for because the chef will not substitute anything on the menu. Not a good experience.

  by Mitchell R.

  
  

• Milk studios, memories of a Top Male Model.

  by Myc Agnew

  by Jeremy J.

  
  

• Had the chef's table tasting recently and didn't like anything but the wine. Food was all over salted, pasta was almost raw. If this place was once good, it no longer is.

  by Justin D.

  
  

• They currently have a gnocchi with sausage and kale on the menu. If you see it, get it

  by Fred W.

  
  

• Cool place but too crowd.

• Delicious food. Try the chicken dish or gnocchi or risotto

  by Sinem R

  
  

• Did the chefs table with my family. An absurd amount of food.- not complaining. Everything was delicious. The chicken is as good as you'll thing. And all the pastas were delicious (gnocchi and carb)

  by Cali Z.

  
  

• What goes well with perfect roast chicken? Pasta, of course. New to the menu is a rich potato-dumpling dish with sweet delicata squash and walnut pesto, it's called the Gnocchi e Zucca ($19).

  by Staff Picks

  
  

• Kale salad

  by CCnyc

  
  

• Awesome space. The gnocchi was amazing!

  by James J.

  by Robert Accettura

  
  

• Bill Telepan, chef of Telepan, eats here on his nights off. He loves the Pollo al forno.

  by Chefs Feed

  
  

• It's a great place to have dinner and sit outside. In the summer, it's best to reserve seating beforehand, as it gets crowded. I tried the chicken and it was a bit dry.

  by Berk K.

  
  

• The pizza uvovo is amazing. But if pizza ain't ur thang, get the roasted chicken. Probably the best dish on the menu.

  by J L.

  
  

• The signature JW roasted chicken and any pasta dish are always aces in the hole

  by VoiceStreet

  by Susan N.

  
  

• Gnocchi, chicken and kale were delicious!

  by Meredith

  
  

• Kale salad is perfection but only on the menu seasonally. Also you cannot go wrong with the carbonara for lunch or the JW chix potatoes for dinner. And no matter what end your meal with the budino.

  by Melissa R.

  
  

• It's already been said but the chicken and steak are amazing and randomly enough so is the cauliflower side dish

  by Colby C.

• Pizza uovo. Wow. Don't hesitate - order it! You can share it as an appetizer to be able to have more food :)

  by Maria A.

  
  

• Food is absolutely delicious, but it's expensive, especially since the entrees come with no side. I ordered fish with fennel, but I'm still looking for the fennel. If you see something, say something!

• If it ain't broke don't fix it, and Chef Jonathan Waxman's Pollo Al Forno has been the main seller here since it opened. The crispiness of the skin and moistness of the meat, it doesn't disappoint.

  by New York Habitat

  
  

• Come on! We were the only ones left in the restaurant and I left my scarf on the chair. When I came back in (2 minutes after) it was gone. They charge $20 for a chicken and they steal your cheap scarf

  by The Corcoran Group

  
  

• The hottest dish in Manhatten today is…roast chicken? It may seem like a simple dish, but when done right- as it is at Barbuto- it can also be just about perfect.

  by GourmetLive

  
  

• Delicious eggplant topped bruschetta. The seasonal gnocchi is great. So is he sweetbread appetizer. Try the hazelnut chocolate chip ice cream sundae for dessert. The food is heavy but very satisfying
