A little about Il Cortile;
One City’s true highlights of Italian dining in NYC can be found at Il Cortile. Located on Mulberry Street in the heart of Little Italy, Il Cortile serves many of THE BEST ITALIAN cuisine not only in Little Italy, but also in all of Manhattan!!!

For fans of the hit TV Series, The Sopranos, you’ll be excited to know that Il Cortile was a favorite stop for many of the cast members, including James Gandolfini, Steven Van Zandt and Tony Sirico. In fact, there's even a signed photo of James Gandolfini hanging above his favorite table in the rear of the Garden Room at Il Cortile

Il Cortile has been family owned and operated by the Esposito family in the same location since 1975. There are many reasons this establishment has thrived in the competitive environs of the NYC restaurant scene. First and foremost, the recipes presented here are always prepared with the very freshest and highest-quality ingredients available. The recipes are also family favorites that have been handed down for generations and are rich in Esposito family history.

I am so excited to share this place!!!
