Da Silvano
Owner
On May 1, 1975, Silvano Marchetto opened its doors to what was to become one of the most successful restaurants in NY history. Silvano reinvented Italian restaurants by introducing New Yorkers to Cucina Toscana(true Tuscan food) while injecting a rock 'n' roll energy filled with everything that is Downtown cool. The amazing food, fashionably fabulous customers & entertaining environment make Da Silvano a favorite.

The Scene – There's always a line out front at Da Silvano's--put it down to the owner, the celebrities and the sidewalk tables. Though service is occasionally spotty--especially in the summer when the sidewalk tables are overflowing--Silvano Marchetto generally keeps an eagle eye on his Tuscan establishment. – – The Food – Appetizers like broccoli rabe with fennel sausage, mussels in garlic, oil and white wine or fresh, moist fried sardines are all outstanding, as is the long list of daily specials.

Lovely people, wonderful neighborhood food
by Anniebelle
My husband and I are from Baltimore and we often dine at Da Silvano when we come into the city. It's our favorite place. We love the food, the service
and the atmosphere.
Last week we were heading up to Maine, driving along the turnpike, when the mood for Da Silvano's struck. We called ahead and made a detour. We were joined by our 9 year old daughter.
As usual we were seated immediately by a lovely, attentive waiter. From our table the street was very visible and our daughter suddenly remarked that
she thought she saw a "famous" person come into the restaurant. She did indeed. A very well-known woman and an equally well-known man were also
dining at Da Silvano that afternoon and they were seated right next to us.
What made the afternoon special for us was that in spite of the high profile table next to us, our waiter (and indeed the entire staff) treated our
family like we were their best customers.
A delicious, memorable meal served by lovely people.
- Pros: You'll feel like you're a member of the Silvano family
