Our wine list and food menu are thoughtfully prepared and selected by a team that strives to introduce our guests to new, fresh Italian flavors.

    Spuntino Wine Bar & Italian Tapas offers the unique opportunity to share several dishes with everyone at your table. They will keep the tab open so you can add items as you go. They feature many unique choices including a separate Truffle menu. I recommend this restaurant to couples or families.

    Loved the tapas style portions of great food. I recommend the shrimp scampi and the fried dough for dessert! The service was amazing . The restaurant was very loud . The ambience was great in the little booth and sheltered us a little from the noise of a private party. Dinner for two with a bottle of wine was about $100. Great restaurant for the price so close to NYC.

    I love this restaurant. Unfortunately we had sandy mussels. We kept trying and a good amount were sandy. Besides the mussels being disappointing everything else was amazing. Affogato is to die for.

    Spuntino is a reliable place that really exceeds what you'd expect at a mall location. The food is generally way above average (they do vegetables, bruschette, pizzas, and most small plates QUITE well. On this occasion, the clams oreganata (which I understand were a short-term item anyway) were gummy and overly salty. The manager agreed and took it back, taking it off our bill. The artichokes were very tasty, but, like the broccoli rabe on occasion, had a little toughness to it that made it less than ideal, but still good. The brussels sprouts and charred broccoli were both tremendous, as were the bruschetta and pizza. Desserts are reliable, but we skipped them this time around. The manager was very friendly and solicitous, making the experience immediately gratifying--he seemed like he genuinely welcomed us to the establishment.
