Currently, all New York City restaurants can only offer takeout or delivery services. But many of the city's best restaurants have taken a break throughout the course of the past two months, figuring out what's best for their staff, public health and own bottom lines. While restaurants in the fine dining sector might find it harder to pivot to this new generation of dining in, scores of restaurants across the city are thinking creatively about how they fit in to the crowded delivery scene. As restaurants get closer to fully opening back up for dine-in full-service—in whatever capacity that might look like—we'll update this page to keep you in-the-know about the notable restaurants that you can return to. In the meantime, here are some restaurants that have reopened for delivery and takeout that might be worth checking out. Welcome back, folks! 

Via Carota

Still in the process of figuring out their delivery plan, the team says that by the end of the month they will launch an e-commerce platform for their restaurants I Sodi, Buvette, Via Carota and Bar Pisellino. You'll be able to order I Sodi's famed lasagna to-go, as well as other grocery market items, including Rita Sodi's family olive oil. "We might do our vinaigrette, Bar Pisellino’s panini and tramezzini. Rita might do her meat sauce. She’s also got a killer cacio e pepe sauce in the works. But we’re definitely not going to put a plastic table out and sell Aperol spritzes in plastic cups to people who aren’t wearing their masks," co-owner Jody Williams told Grub Street last week.
