What are the Absolute Best | 2017-05-08

Pasta. Oh, pasta. As a native New Yorker, this is one particular dish that I can never get enough of as I have found that we have it pretty much the best here on a domestic level (Italy takes the cake for being the world's best). There are a zillion different options here in Manhattan to find what you think is best for all things pasta, but the question is... which places truly reign supreme?

Over the past four years at Manhattan Digest, my writers and myself have been able to dine at some of the best Italian places from the Upper West Side all the way down to the East Village. Some of those spots are included on this list, yet when we chatted with our readers, we were made aware of ones that we have not written about yet but they gave some amazing fanfare which warrants them a spot on our list! Yay!

Look, its the beginning of the week. Mondays always suck, so why not take a look at these ten spots that will leave you yearning to get to the end of the day so you can cuddle up next to a bowl of pasta with the fixings and give yourself the biggest smile ever? Take a look at what we think makes the final cut for the best pasta places in Manhattan. Ciao!
