Gigantoni pasta with shrimp balls at Locanda VerdeLocanda Verde
Since Robert De Niro's first Greenwich Hotel eatery, Ago, received critical pans, he brought in the big guns with this reboot. Chef Andrew Carmellini (A Voce) has designed family-style dishes such as those found in "La Grande Abbuffata" ("The Great Pig Out"), a feast of antipasti, pastas—like gigantoni with shrimp meatballs—and a main, such as lamb shoulder with wild fennel. The rustic-industrial space has been made cozier with the help of Ken Friedman (the Spotted Pig); and desserts come from Karen Demasco (Craft), who will also bake for the soon-to-open café. Beer fans: Note the Italian craft brews. 377 Greenwich St at North Moore St (212-925-3797)Aamchi Pao
From banh mi to num pang, New York is mad about Asian sandwiches. Now you can add pao bhaji, a Mumbai street food of meat- and veggie-stuffed buns, to the list. The snacks will headline at this 12-seat shop from owners Surbhi Sahni (Dévi) and Nandini Mukherjee (Indian Bread Co). Also on offer: chutneys, lassis and desserts from Dévi. 194 Bleecker St between Sixth Ave and MacDougal St (212-228-1909)The Brooklyn Star
Joaquin Baca (Momofuku) may have built most of this American restaurant, but its centerpiece—a wood-fired oven—has been there for 110 years. It'll be put to good use for dishes like pork ribs with Dr Pepper sauce and roasted trout. 33 Havemeyer St between North 7th and 8th Sts, Williamsburg, Brooklyn (718-599-9899)Japan Premium Beef
Japanese Wagyu beef has been available at restaurants for some time, but now you can take these highly marbled steaks home. Eiichi Yamamoto, a Japanese butcher with 15 years of experience, fronts the first retail location of this Oregon breeder. Look for cuts like rib-eye, ground beef for burgers and more. 57 Great Jones St between Bowery and Lafayette St (212-260-2333)Compiled by Daniel Gritzer
