La Pecora Bianca UWS

Food was delicious! Well made, authentic and tasty. Inside and outside seating. Great service, fast and friendly. I will definitely be back for more of everything we enjoyed!

this was such a delightful little spot! my wife and i met some friends here for our honeymoon, and we loved it! it's a short walk from central park. the menu had many vegetarian options, especially for the appetizers.<br><br>my wife got the Garganelli, which we were able to pay a bit extra for to get a ball of burrata on top (def worth). i got a the shaved brussel salad; so delicious, but be wary it's a bit small so probably better to compliment another dish!<br><br>and please look at this adorable tiramisu!! so cute and so delicious!<br><br>i would love to come back here again and try more of the menu!!

Grateful Mother's Day celebration 💐 Enjoyed the Mom's day Pre Fixed menú. From appetizer to dessert, each dish was delicious 😋 We sat at the bar since we didn't have reservations, but the vibe was better than expected 👌 My Lavender Mint Spitzer was refreshing, loved it! Bartender and Manager were very attentive and quite friendly. My daughter and I truly had a wonderful time! Thank you ! We will certainly visit again ❤️

Visited Memorial day 2026<br>This is my second time visiting this restaurant chain. My first visit was the Soho one and that was a good experience. Sad to say today was not. Waited nearly 25 minutes for my meal then when it arrived it was over salted. Server was very nonchalant , kept saying my food was coming. I told him in the end about the food being extremely salted and he did take it off my bill(did not realize till i went to pay). Just paid for salad. Also since our server did not come back in a timely manner me and my guest went to the host to pay bill told him about the service and the food and he said "chef must be busy today" again very laid back about the service offered to me.

Update 2026: Skylar was fantastic. Excellent food and service levels continue!<br><br>La Pecora has quickly become our go-to Italian restaurant in New York. Its everything you'd expect from a chain restaurant; consistent, tasty food, and refreshing decor at every place! Service was a little slow at this location and our server wasn't that attentive, but that did not affect our experience at all.<br><br>Zucchini "Fries" ($15) is a must order appetizer and the Roasted Cauliflower ($17) was delicious as well. We shared the Garganelli ($26) pasta, something I'd highly recommend - the pasta and sharing - as the oil eventually gets to you. They make any pasta of your choice with butter and cheese for the kids, so our little one was happy to satisfy his pasta craving 'per his liking.<br><br>Noise levels were on the lower end. Overall, a decently positive experience and will definitely continue to be our go-to place for Italian food!

Excellent Picora next to the museum. Ton of outdoor seating and delicious food. Pastas are excellent and well proportioned. I liked the Rigatoni the best.<br><br>More outdoor seating than the rest of the Picoras.<br><br>Only major downfall is 2 bathrooms that are unisex and individual stalls. The line can be 10-20 minutes.

Great vibes when you walk in, it just feels right. The staff is friendly and professional - the host checked out coats on a cold day, it just felt nice. We sat in “the softest chairs in the house”, lucky us! Food was good, the high point was the ricotta toast appetizer. Pasta was good but not quite magical. Squash soup was good too. It got crowded quickly at lunchtime, I recommend making a reservation. The two course lunch is $30. Give it a try if you’re going to the museum!

We have tried all the other locations of La Pecora Bianca, and this was our first time at the UWS. It did not disappoint! Claire was honestly the best waitress we have had from all our experiences there. So sweet, professional, and incredibly helpful. The strip steak & eggs was delicious and a huge portion. We loved the zucchini fries, burrata, whipped ricotta, and arugula. And of course, my favorite rigatoni with vodka sauce is always a must. Can’t wait to go back!

This is my first time at the Pecora Bianca on the UWS (i had tried the Nomad and Bryant Park locations) and my guest and I had a great experience! Jonathan was an excellent server and always made sure to check on us. We had the garmigna (curly pasta with sausage) and chicken parmigian, which were both excellent! You cannot leave Pecora Bianca without eating their delicious tiramisu! Thank you so much for a wonderful dinner and making our night so special!

Large variety of vegetarian dishes on the menu, we all loved trying the honey ricotta plate, rigatoni with burrata, campanelle (without shrimp), and garganelle. The tiramisu cake was delicious and really aesthetic!! I would recommend this spot for groups of 5ish due to their circle tables!!<br><br>Brunch prix fixe is also really worth the money.

Superb large Italian bright restaurant with wonderfully heated enclosed pavement. Our waiter today was great. Very efficient and informative. But there are no tea pots which is a surprise for a restaurant of this standard. We mostly ate pasta dishes and they were all great and surprisingly warm given that we were out on the covered pavement area. Along with purchasing tea pots the restaurant should invest in extra restroom facilities. Two is just not enough for a restaurant of this size. Between the four of us we each had to wait about 7 mins at different times during our meal. Still despite the comfort break waits I would still recommend this popular restaurant.

For Thanksgiving day, we’ve had their prefix $65 menu. Meatballs, burrata salad, extra pumpkin soup, and spaghetti and Thanksgiving special dish.<br><br>The servers and hosts were kind and escorted us to a table right away. The appetizers were not upto my expectations. Meatballs were a bit dry. Pumpkin soup was too creamy for my taste. Burrata cheese you can’t go wrong, but the combination of ingredients did not feel a whole. Main dishes were better. Turkey dishes were good. We liked the stuffings, mash potatoes, sweet potatoes, gravy and turkey itself was moist. Massive dessert for two but we thought this should be for at least 4 people!<br><br>Nice ambience and friendly service.

All the food was amazing. We really enjoyed it. They did take my order incorrectly, but what they brought me was still really good and I was pleased with what I ate, but they did not get the order right which isn’t the end of the world for me, but might be for others and I’m sure they would’ve exchanged it if I would’ve asked

A wonderful restaurant. Very well appointed ambiance…light and bright. Friendly staff and waiter. The food, both specials and regular, were excellent. We had the special Pumpkin ravioli, faroe island salmon(nice crispy skin), cauliflower appetizer and crispy artichoke hearts. All very good. But I have to say, the tiramisu is standout and the best I’ve ever had. Not the typical presentation and not as sweet as most which we appreciate.

Great spot to stop for a cozy dinner! The atmosphere was great, server switched half way through dinner and there were some gaps because of that. Food was good, but they forgot the bread with the burrata and there was a bone in my chicken Parmesan. I’d for sure go back for a drink and app or pasta!
