• Italian • Lower East Side

Bar Primi is a corner pasta shop devoted to ‘primi piatti,’ the pasta course. What began as an idea for a small space in New York's East Village has since become an essential in chef and co-owner Andrew Carmellini's range: fresh pasta traditionally prepared and cooked to order. At Bar Primi, the main course is Primi Piatti. We use a variety of non-GMO semolina and specialty ‘00’ flours, organic eggs and handed-down techniques to create our menu of Traditional and Seasonal pasta dishes. We make more than a dozen different shapes and styles daily. This includes lumache and rigatoni from our imported extruder or ravioli and mezzalune cut and filled by hand. Family recipes and secrets are traded between Carmellini and Brooklyn-born chef-partner Salvatore Lamboglia who also offers a daily meat or seafood special in addition to a selection of shareable Piccolini and Antipasti, artisanal cheese, salumi and simple home-style desserts.

    I live in NYC and eat out often. This restaurant had the most attentive service I have ever experienced. I was waiting at the bar for my friend. I was approached three times by wait staff and the manager to ask if I needed water or anything. This was done in a kind and respectful way - not a ‘move along and order something or leave’ manner. Attentive service continued once we were seated. Food was delicious. Next time I’m in the Village, this is my go-to.
