We first wrote about Gottino in 2008.
Three years later, celebrated our 26th wedding anniversary here last night, had a beautiful time followed by a magical nighttime walk on the new section of The Highline.
Gottino, on Greenwich near Perry Street in the West Village.
A creation of one of our favorite chefs Jody Williams.
Check out the web site Gotttino When you visit tell Jeremy you saw Gottino here.
Gottino is among a new breed of Wine bar that offers not only great wine but also irresistable food.
As Eric Asimov of the NY Times comments:
"Gottino in the West Village has an Italian theme, but its creative menu goes way beyond the salumi-and-cheese places, with enticing dishes like sweet-and-tart beets, cooked in parchment and bathed in a bright horseradish sauce."
Wine Bars Grow Up and Squeeze in
And in another article he says, "I had a very good Cerasuolo di Vittorio at Gottino but what I continue to crave are Jody Williams’s delicious house-cured anchovies, the buttery potted salmon, which I could eat endlessly, and the hefty little meatballs of pork, bread and prune, which alas disappeared with the winter menu."
Wine May Be the Come-On,But I Come Back for the Food
We are all about that.
We loved the food and the wine and the friendly atmosphere. The food credit to a great degree goes to Chef de cuisine Meredith Sutton I believe. We had a several delicious small plates and 3 glasses of wonderful Italian wine.
