Ponte's Restaurant (CLOSED)

Established in 1967 by the Ponte Family as the first dining destination in Tribeca, this rustically elegant Italian restaurant captivates diners with authentic cuisine, including pastas and bread made daily on-site and traditional classics such as the world famous "Angry Lobster" and osso bucco, along with more contemporary dishes. A wood-burning oven in the first floor bar / lounge and a rotisserie in the second floor dining room foster culinary creativity and lend additional charm to the inviting decor distinguished by exposed brick walls, hand painted tiles and beamed ceilings. Stunning Hudson River views and complimentary valet parking add to Ponte's considerable attractions.
