Editorial Review for Da Silvano – by Citysearch Staff
The Scene
There's always a line out front at Da Silvano's--put it down to the owner, the celebrities and the sidewalk tables. Though service is occasionally spotty--especially in the summer when the sidewalk tables are overflowing--Silvano Marchetto generally keeps an eagle eye on his Tuscan establishment.
The Food
Appetizers like broccoli rabe with fennel sausage, mussels in garlic, oil and white wine or fresh, moist fried sardines are all outstanding, as is the long list of daily specials. Equally excellent main courses include a flavorsome pepper-crusted rare tuna and a boiled beef with cabbage that's the soul of comfort food. The roasted chicken breast is authentically robust. A pasta special with avocado and sea urchin is a rare disappointment--the flavors stubbornly refuse to complement each other--but many other reliable housemade pastas are available.

After all these years Da Silvano is still a great place to people watch in the neighborhood. I went on a recent Wednesday night and both this restaurant and Bar Bitti next door still had a decent crowd outside. The hosts make you feel very welcome too and the waiters don't rush you.

Da Silvano has always had great food but I just wanted to say that on a nice day, it is a great spot in the Village to sit outside, enjoy a glass of wine and watch the people go by. Oh yeah, get some lunch too beacuse the food is delicious.
