Know Before You Go

They don't take reservations for parties of any size, so you're bound to have to wait for a table.

Fun Fact

Along with Joe Bastianich, Mario Batali is a part owner.

What to Drink

Several fine beers are available on tap. Go straight to the classics, like Wolaver's IPA or Old Speckled Hen. There's a wine list too, with a small but careful selection of mostly American bottles. Glasses range from $9 to $15.

Know Before You Go

Though he's not in the kitchen, Mario Batali is a part owner.

FourSquare Tips

  • Eater
    Chef April Bloomfield holds her own and then some at New York's top gastropub. Arguably the best restaurant burger in New York is served here, and the gnudi needs no introduction. [Eater 38 Member]
  • Bravo
    A must-stop whenever I am in NYC. Gnudi are killer, best burger, and on my last visit the peas were a revelation. -Preeti Mistry, Top Chef
  • CNN
    CNN Eatocracy: Devils on Horseback, chicken liver & a burger with Roquefort are a few of its hearty offerings. A 2 hr wait is normal during peak hours, as is celeb-spotting in the witching hours.
  • Bravo
    Such great food. I can?t resist going there every time I go to New York. -Susan Feniger, Top Chef
  • How To Make It In America
    Gastropubby goodness. You should be thrown out for ordering a salad here. If you can't do the massive burger, at least do a couple duck eggs. [BlackBook]
  • How To Make It In America
    The best restaurant burger in NYC is served here, as anyone who has braved the two-hour wait for a table can tell you.
  • Bravo
    One of my favorite places. -Jacqueline Laurita, Real Housewives of NJ
  • Epicurious
    Gastropubs are popping up everywhere, but the Spotted Pig is one of the best. Head down to this West Village hotspot for stellar gnudi, haddock chowder, and a couple of the hearty house ales.
  • Metromix
    One of best places for a lauded char-grilled burger with Roquefort cheese. The wait is always a long one though.
  • Food Network
    Mario Batali brings British gastropub fare to the West Village at the local and celeb favorite, The Spotted Pig.
