Dining room at Abboccato, New York, NYThis Midtown Italian eatery serves up well-prepared Italian dishes that would make a real Italian mama proud. There’s nothing too dressed up about the dishes. And that’s a good thing. The spaghetti amatriciana, tomato sauce, crispy guanciale and red onions, might emerge from a trattoria on a Roman side-street. The sardines---in this case, of the bigger Portuguese variety---taste like they have just been fished from the sea. The veal sweetbreads, an ultra-tender loaf, are amplified by their speck-encrusted exterior. In fact, even the side of broccoli rabe is over-salted---just as you’d find in Italy. The lengthy all-Italian wine list offers plenty of selections to wash it all down. Service is topnotch.
