Sette by Scarpetta, the renowned restaurant that has been captivating diners since its inception in 2019, recently announced an exciting journey this September.

In a move that promises to delight the taste buds of its patrons, Sette is expanding its A La Carte menu for the first time, drawing inspiration from its flagship venue, Scarpetta, located in the heart of Manhattan. This expansion is set to introduce an alluring array of dishes that seamlessly fuse the essence of “La Dolce Vita” with the culinary vibrancy of New York.

The Fusion of Flavours

From its very inception, Sette has consistently aimed to craft bold and exquisite flavours, all while sourcing the freshest seasonal ingredients. The restaurant’s existing menu boasts a tantalizing blend of signature Italian dishes and homemade pastas. Now, Sette is taking it up a notch by infusing these Italian classics with American favourites inspired by LDV’s esteemed State-side establishments.

John Meadow, the visionary founder and president of LDV Hospitality, shares his perspective on Sette’s culinary evolution: “Our goal has always been to deliver charm, inspiration, and pleasure through the simplest of things. The New York Nights Series will do just that, marrying two of the greatest elements that kick-started my culinary journey: authentic Italian cuisine, fine wine, and culture intertwined with the eclectic dining scene of New York.”

Delights Await

Starting from mid-September, Sette will enchant its guests with a delectable selection of dishes on their À la Carte menu, including:

• Japanese A5 Wagyu ‘In Smoke’ – Wrapped in puff pastry, enhanced with a tarragon reduction and sprinkled with Himalayan salt.
