Inside – Kitchen
Salumi + Formaggio with olives, marcona almonds, truffle honey and dried fruit
The house cured salumi is a must during your visit to Louie Bossi’s! With delectable accompaniments such as truffle honey, you may find yourself paying a visit just for this appetizer.
Brooklyn Caesar – pancetta, poached egg, tuscan kale
Caesar is one of my all time favorite salads. I enjoyed the use of tuscan kale in this version which was amplified by all the goodies on top, so good!
Risotto Al Futti Di Mare – shrimp, clams, mussels, calamari
If you’re in the mood for risotto – this dish is for you, very flavorful with plenty of fresh seafood.
Mafaldine – ragu of pork with ricotta, n’duja
WOW – no wonder this is one of the signature dishes at Louie’s. The ribbon shaped pasta with wavy edges on each side, known as mafaldine, is made in house and accompanied by perfectly cooked ragu of pork. This dish is a winner!
Tiramisu – marscarpone cream, espresso, savoiardi biscuits
This was my first visit to Louie Bossi’s and I can absolutely see myself going back. I sat inside and enjoyed the ambiance and energy. I would like to visit for brunch and dine outside in the bright and unique space. Speaking of the outdoor dining area, be sure to bring your competitive side for a game of bocce ball, or should I say, Bossi Ball!
Louie Bossi’s Ristorante is kicking off a weekly “Bossi Ball” Tournament. Every Tuesday beginning at 10pm, guests are invited to bust out their bocce moves on Louie Bossi’s stunning 2000-sq.ft. piazza.
