VOTED BEST PIZZA 2011 BY THE VILLAGE VOICE

Pulino’s Bar & Ristorante is a lively Italian trattoria that captures the bustling spirit of the Bowery, offering a convivial meeting spot for locals and visitors alike, including for late-night dining Wednesdays thru Saturdays, when we’re open until two in the morning.

Executive chef Tony Liu mans the kitchen, serving antipasti, insalate, pizze, and al forno dishes. Highlights include made-to-order focacce, salads onpizza bianca, fresh homemade pastas, and flavor-packed roasted meats and fish. The pizze, made with Balthazar Bakery’s “mother” dough, are baked in a wood-burning oven, which gives them their crisp-yet-chewy crust. Refreshing cocktails, beers, and a well-edited list of global wines complement Liu’s menu, which is capped by a wide assortment of delicious Italian desserts.

Exuberant and charming like all of Keith McNally’s restaurants, Pulino’s welcomes guests to enjoy satisfying Italian fare and stay on for the sheer fun of it.
