• Sicilian • Lower East Side

Booked 9 times today

Bar Primi is a corner pasta shop devoted to ‘primi piatti,’ the pasta course. What began as an idea for a small space in New York's East Village has since become an essential in chef and co-owner Andrew Carmellini's range: fresh pasta traditionally prepared and cooked to order. At Bar Primi, the main course is Primi Piatti. We use a variety of non-GMO semolina and specialty ‘00’ flours, organic eggs and handed-down techniques to create our menu of Traditional and Seasonal pasta dishes. We make more than a dozen different shapes and styles daily. This includes lumache and rigatoni from our imported extruder or ravioli and mezzalune cut and filled by hand. Family recipes and secrets are traded between Carmellini and Brooklyn-born chef-partner Salvatore Lamboglia who also offers a daily meat or seafood special in addition to a selection of shareable Piccolini and Antipasti, artisanal cheese, salumi and simple home-style desserts.

This place transports you to an authentic Italian trattoria. Food was excellent but the space is small.

While the host was a bit abrupt and assertive, it was easy to overlook given the rest of our experience. The service was excellent, and our server—a strikingly charismatic individual—helped us select a Cabernet and a fruity white wine, both of which were fantastic. The food was outstanding, arriving surprisingly quickly despite the complex layers of seasoning and flavor. Everything was perfectly prepared and a true pleasure to enjoy. We shared the ravioli, eggplant pasta, and a vibrant summer salad accompanied by jumbo shrimp—each dish was beautifully balanced and delicious. To finish, we had perfectly executed cannolis and espresso, which were indulgent without being overly rich. This was a truly memorable meal, and we’ll definitely be returning. Highly recommend! •H
