Margherita di Bufala
$28San Marzano, buffalo mozzarella from Campania, basil cut moments before service, single-origin olive oil.
Vegetarian900° Oak
A nightfall kitchen rooted in slow fire, hand-stretched dough, and ingredients tracked from the farm to the flame. Reservations recommended.
What began in a small Brooklyn cellar in 1986 has become a quiet ritual: dough that ferments seventy-two hours, sauce reduced from San Marzano tomatoes picked at altitude, and a 900° oak-fired oven that hasn't gone cold since the day we opened.
Every component on our menu is traceable. Our flour mills in Caputo, our buffalo mozzarella ferries weekly from Campania, and our greens come from three farms within fifty miles of the dining room.
Each pie is shaped by hand — never rolled, never pressed. Ninety seconds in the oven. The result is a crust that crackles, then yields. It is the only way we have ever known to do this.
Dim, intentional, candlelit. Forty-four seats, a long marble bar, and an open kitchen that hums quietly through the night. We pour natural wines and listen to vinyl.
"We don't reinvent dishes. We render them honestly — the way they were taught to us, then quietly improved over forty years."
