Having just arrived in NYC, we started scouring various reservations apps for a place to have dinner. We found Il Corso had availability along with great reviews, and further research convinced us this was the place to go. It turned out to be a great start to our trip, and one of the best meals we had during our visit! A long and narrow space nestled among other businesses along 55th, we were kindly and promptly seated. It was surprisingly full for a Monday night. This isn't a place for "Americanized" Italian fare. You won't find chicken parm on this menu, which was a wonderful feature of the menu since my husband and I have both lived in Europe and prefer more authentic Italian cuisine. We chose the croquettes and a salad to start. The croquettes had a perfectly light and crispy exterior, and a pillowy flavorful interior. My husband chose the lasagne all'Emilliana, different from American style lasagne with its wonderfully creamy bechamel layer. I chose the paccheri con Crema di Pistacchio e Salsiccia- a large tubular pasta with crumbles of sweet Italian sausage and creamy mascarpone and pistachio sauce. There's nothing similar to compare this dish to, but it was absolutely exquisite! It's one of those dishes that you won't easily forget! There were so many dishes on the menu that we wanted to try, and we were very happy with the dishes we ended up choosing. The bread service is initially complimentary and comes with a pleasant dip of olive oil, garlic, and lentils! Again, not typical of an Italian restaurant in the US, but delicious.. and we couldn't stop spooning lentils over the warm, crusty bread. So good! There's an additional charge for extra bread, which is probably a good thing because you'll want to keep eating bread and lentils otherwise! The only, and very slightly, disappointing things were the desserts we chose. Don't get me wrong, they were beautiful and delicious, but they were served far too hot. The ice cream on top was already melting when they arrived at the table, but breaking into the hot exterior and releasing more heat turned it into a soupy, sloppy mess. The flavor was still fabulous, but this soupy texture didn't allow for appreciating its individual components. Had it been warm and not piping hot, it would have been perfect! The Chianti Riserva was good and only got better as it breathed. The Peroni was nice and cold. Everything was so good, we considered just eating there every night, but we decided we should see what else the city had to offer! Il Corso is already on our list of places to return to the next time we visit!

Lovely little Italian restaurant. Very courteous and attentive staff. Menu was explained well and various options provided. Gets busy pretty quick since it's close to the theater district. Lots of locals seemed to be around which is always a good sign. Our favorite was the Paccheri con Crema di Pistacchio e Salsiccia. So good, very rich and creamy but not heavy!!! Our kid almost it all himself!! Consider reserving a spot, makes your life easier since a lot of restaurants in the big apple are on the smaller size.

Really cute small spot. The staff was incredibly friendly. They were attentive without hovering and I appreciated that they kept our water filled. The food was good and reasonably priced. The pappardelle was a favorite at our table. I'd come back here on another trip to New York.
