The Renowned team behind Il Valentino have launched a more intimate eatery on the Upper East Side with a new name to match, Il Valentino Osteria.
The original location of Il Valentino was in the Sutton Hotel, where the elegant spot was a frequent hangout for celebrities, business impresarios and political figures in addition to being utilized for United Nations diplomatic events. When the hotel decided to make a change in operations, Restauranteur Mirso Lekic sought out to find a location that is close to the original, and has now found that in its new location, on the corner of 59th Street on 1st Avenue.
At this new location, Il Valentino Osteria’s Executive Consulting Chef Erminio Conte, formerly the Executive Chef of Serafina, and Sous Chef Lauro Sucuz, formerly of Petaluma and Elios, have worked together to craft a menu of delicious Tuscan delicacies which are generating excitement both near and far.
The restaurant’s intimate space was elegantly designed by Dan Sehic of C3D Architecture, who created a rustic yet modern chic design for the space. The restaurant’s tabletops and chairs were crafted out of mango wood with contrasting metal chair legs, all of which were conceptualized by Franco Lucic of LMF Group. Along the walls is a line of banquettes designed in leather with gold threading detail accentuating the rich and rustic feel of the environment.
In the back of the main dining room lies the restaurant’s greatest gem – its brick oven. Visible at all corners of the space, each day the restaurant bakes all of its breads and pizza crusts for signature dishes including its Truffle Pizza with fresh black truffle, fontina cheese, ricotta, homemade fresh mozzarella and truffle oil.
