"For more than six decades, Laura's vision shaped this beloved house, and it was her wish that guests continue to gather here in the spirit she cherished."
"Barbetta was known for its elegant interior design, open-air garden patio and white truffle dishes. Due to its rare nature, Barbetta obtained truffles from its own hunters and hounds in Piemonte, Italy."
"With heavy hearts, we share that following the passing of Ms. Laura Maioglio, Barbetta will conclude its remarkable journey. Thank you for being part of our story."
Barbetta, a renowned Italian restaurant specializing in Piemonte cuisine, closes Friday after more than 60 years of service in Manhattan's Theater District. The family-owned establishment, located on Restaurant Row at 321 West 46th Street, was taken over by Laura Maioglio in 1962 following her father Sebastiano's founding. Known for its elegant brownstone setting, open-air garden patio, and signature white truffle dishes sourced from hunters in Piemonte, Italy, Barbetta introduced New Yorkers to regional Italian cuisine including agnolotti, risotto, and polenta. The restaurant earned the Wine Spectator Award of Excellence and appeared in numerous films and television shows. For its final service, Barbetta offers its extensive wine collection at half price.
