Why is it that in a neighborhood known for its culinary achievements so few restaurants last more than a few years? In an atmosphere of intense fluctuation, the constants gain the lasting glory. Through the years, Osteria Panevino's narrow dining room and always-bustling patio have drawn people back for special events and the joy of a remarkable night out. "Panevino" is an amalgamation of the words for bread and wine -- a combination that livens the heart, according to the Italian tradition. The restaurant's wine selection gains annual accolades and the staff will guide you through the ideal matches for your meal. For antipasti, crab-stuffed mushroom caps or grilled herb polenta with Gorgonzola sauce will ready your appetite for Old World entrees of gnocchetti rabbit ragu, porcini risotto, seared ahi over lobster mashed potatoes or classically braised osso buco. Osteria Panevino creates a dining experience wonderfully difficult to forget.

Carbonara
By RBarraganR on 06/14/2008
Worst carbonara ive ever had . I asked the manager if they served carbonara without being smothered in cream sauce and he said of coarse and he promised me if it wasnt he would pick up the bill on the carbonara but of coarse he didnt. I dont mind and i didnt ask him to pick up the tab but dont lie to a guido about food i was raised on. The other Italian restaurants on 5th ave. are have superior food!

THe food was amazing! We've eaten all over the world and in some very fine restaurants, but this was one of the best casual Tuscan (outside Tuscany) place to be found. We returned three nights in a row to try more items. THanks for the great food.
