Travertine’s pappardelle with a rabbit ragùPhotograph: Jeffery GurwinTravertine
Former Babbo sous chef and Top Chef season-four contestant Manuel Trevino will present a Mediterranean menu at this 58-seat restaurant. Dishes will include pappardelle with a rabbit ragù, and rack of lamb with crushed olive-oil potatoes and red-pepper mustard. 19 Kenmare St between Bowery and Elizabeth St (212-966-1810)Kolache Mama
A type of stuffed pastry from Central Europe, kolache isn’t a household word…yet. As the featured item of this fledgling takeout-only chain—which plans to open up to 18 New York locations over the next two years—it may soon become one. The menu includes inventive versions, such as one filled with Texas smoked sausage. 45 E 45th St between Madison and Vanderbilt Aves (no phone yet)Luke’s Lobster
Luke Holden and his father, Jeff, have a history in the lobster industry: Both have worked as lobstermen, and Jeff owns the seafood business that will supply his son’s East Village eatery. Authentic Maine-style lobster rolls will feature a buttered, griddle-toasted bun smeared with mayo and loaded with a quarter pound of lobster meat. Shrimp and crab versions will also be available. 93 E 7th St between First Ave and Ave A (212-387-8487)Compiled by Daniel Gritzer

Not good at all. Thought a chef of Trevino's skill could come up with a more prepared and better tasting menu. Our group of 5 each had an app and an entree and none of us left impressed. To make matters worse, the area it is in is dark and filthy and not at all welcoming. The quality of the staff and especially the food needs to improve if Travertine wants to last.
I went there last night and ordered the fagotini. The dish was the most overcooked I had ever had and came out at room temperature. My boyfriend had the gnocchi and that was also overcooked and cold! The staff was rude and unapologetic. Don't waste your time.
A girlfriend of mine familiar with the Travertine tastings said the food is "unfortunately not that good" :-(
