The lowdown
After more than 100 years in business, there’s no sign that the saucy zuppa di clams, hulking pork chops, or tender artichokes wilted under an avalanche of cheesy garlic bread crumbs are going anywhere soon. Decades-long regulars mingle with Williamsburg’s artists-and-yuppies community over plates of clams casino, mussels marinara, and prosciutto with melon. Bamonte’s gigantic handmade cheese ravioli, in a light tomato-and-meat sauce, are de rigueur, and among the finest available.
