Editorial Review for Roberto Passon – by Kara Zuaro

In Short
Chef Roberto Passon, known for his work at Chelsea's much-loved Venetian eatery, Le Zie, brings his take on regional Italian cuisine to this bright yellow corner restaurant in Hell's Kitchen. Flowing curtains and white tablecloths give the space an upscale feel, but the menu is fairly priced. House specialties--such as white asparagus with eggs and prosciutto, tender venison over papardelle pasta and rich braised rabbit--draw local couples and theatergoers alike.

User Reviews for Roberto Passon

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

My boyfriend and I go to Roberto Passon on a regular basis, and are never dissapointed! The food is always excellent, usually with a few specials that intrigue us. Yes, it is a small restaurant, and is usually packed to the gills, but that is a part of its charm. We enjoy the great food, italian wine list, and a waitstaff that will bring us something when we need it and leave us alone otherwise!

Pros: food, wine list

Cons: small space

This is not a quality restaurant, With so many restaurants in the city. The pumpkin ravoli tasted like it was from a can. The bread was not fresh and the hummus tasted sour. They come around with stale bread and provide everyone with hummus and a tomato spread. The appetizers were overpriced and not of good quality. The rabbit was about as rubbery as you can get. The water was warm, they don't even put ice in the water. The bartender can't make a drink- the mojito was absolutely nasty. The staff is rude. With so many restaurants in the city; this 'restaurant' seems to set itself as being one of the worst all-around.

Cons: Everything imaginable
