Barbusa, a charming Italian eatery located in the heart of Little Italy. Being a popular spot in this bustling neighborhood, I highly recommend making a reservation beforehand to avoid long wait times, as walk-ins might have to endure a 1-2 hour wait for a table.
During our visit, my companions and I decided to try the Lollipop Chops as our appetizers. Lamb chop with gorgonzola sauce was tender, juicy, and bursting with flavors that left a lasting impression. As for the main courses, the Pizzas and Pasta were undeniably delicious, though they didn't quite reach the level of astonishment. However, what truly stole the show was the mysterious concoction called the Barbusa Espresso Martini. This enigmatic drink recipe was not even listed on the menu, yet it proved to be a delightful surprise! I highly recommend indulging in this secret elixir that titillates your taste buds like never before.
The only downside is that due to its popularity, the restaurant can get quite crowded, leading to a slower dining pace.
