La Cantina Toscana is a wonderfully creative restaurant. It offers truly authentic, "Tuscan Fare" in quaint and warm surroundings. There are wild boar dishes prepared in ways found only in Tuscany. Chef/Co-owner Gigi Sacchetti prepares 10-15 nightly specials based upon the availability of the freshest ingredients at the market that particular day. A delightful appetizer of Artichokes cured with a superb Parmigano Reggiano is a wonderful way to start your meal. Pastas and Entrees are creative and affordably priced. Co-owner Massimiliano Caldini, a gracious host, established a superb wine list heavy in Barolos, Brunellos and obscure bottlings from smaller producers. Every New Yorker should experience La Cantina Toscana. It is one of New York's most underrated restaurants.
