As many of you already know, I am a magazine reading fanatic. Of course, its par for the course working in the PR industry but NY Magazine and Time Out New York are also where I get most of my restaurant and nightlife knowledge. I think of them as bibles to all things new and great and happening in the city. So, when I read in them recently about Rubirosa Pizza & Bar being part of a "You Need to Know About" feature and singing its pizza praise about a "cracker-thin crust, slightly sweet crushed tomatoes and gooey pools of fresh mozzarella" I just knew I had to try it out.
I stopped in and ordered a classic pizza to go, but as I looked around I realized this was a place I would love to come back to for a romantic date night or even a low key girls night out. It felt like I had stumbled upon a little undiscovered gem. The atmosphere was warm and cozy, the perfect place for to spend a winter's night. The menu is full of Italian American classics including a selection of pizzas, pastas and main course entrees like chicken parmesan. But, in a town known for amazing pizza choices, I think it definitely holds its own. It tasted less like your average NYC slice and more like exactly the kind of pizza you would get in Italy. Buon Appetito!
