Pepe Rosso is one of my favorite restaurants in the city. It is dependable, consistent, and always delicious. Everything tastes home cooked in the best way. All the ingredients are really fresh and every dish I’ve ever ordered has been amazing and intentional!
I love bringing big groups here or just coming alone, the service is quick and friendly and the prices are amazing.

They have gluten free penne pasta. The waiter was so wonderful and they had flourless chocolate cake which was amazing. 10/10 would eat here again.

The food was delicious. I loved the bread accompanied by olive oil and herbs. The prices were very good, and the place is super nice to enjoy the meal in good company. The portions were generous, and the staff was very friendly and courteous.

A friend who lived in the city for many years recommended this place. Delicious pasta, like you’re in Italy!! It seems like a neighborhood spot because someone next to me recommended the pasta dish that had mushrooms and said he ate there at least 3x per week. If I lived in nyc I would too. Also had gluten free pasta which I appreciated!

We’re in NY visiting my mom to help her ring in her 90th and we decided to meet up with some friends at Pepe Rosso Italian restaurant in lower Manhattan. One of my NY friends picked out this cute dive and we had a great time. If you’re looking for luxury try mid Manhattan. Pepe Rosso isn’t luxurious in any way, shape or form. It’s an old dive with quaint qualities and good food. India our server was professional and attentive to our needs and allowed us to be ourselves which is loud New Yorkers who enjoyed the ambience, pasta and good wine. Stop by and take a chance on some authentic Italian dishes, good service and a place you can be yourselves. Mangia!

We totally loved it! Great food for a great price! I would definitely come back. The portions are slightly on the smaller side so maybe not ideal if you’re famished, but if the pasta is definitely great!
And they give you yummy focaccia bread!
~$20 a person

My favorite place to get pasta in the city. The rigatoni prosciutto arugula in pink sauce with a glass of red wine is my go-to. The staff is attentive and welcoming. Also highly recommend the meatballs and fried calamari!

Wowwwww this place was amazing!!! I loved everything about it. It truly felt authentic. It was a mom and pops shop and you can tell they care about the food and put so much love into it. It was so delicious . I am recommending this place to everyone. The waiter was also really good and knowledgeable . Had the burrata , onion focaccia, and eggplant parm with spaghetti with pink sauce . My boyfriend had the chicken parm, which the chicken on his plate was at least 90% of the plate. Huge portions too! Will def be back

5/20/23 first time here. Read the reviews and they were right about the food! Really good. Prices are not so bad either. Our waiter was from Rome and has a touch of NYC bravado, i think that can be misinterpreted at times.
We had a great time! We wanted a bottle of red and were happily able to taste two different ones with no pressure. We chose the Pino and it was easy drinking.
The table bread is really good. The GF had the Pappardelle and loved it.
I had the cavatelli & short rib special ($22) and that was really good too.
We had the tiramisu for dessert and it was a nice size and really good.
Water bottles on the table, no one ever has to ask for water 🙂
We sat for a while and felt no pressure to get up after dinner.
We will certainly be back.

Quick service. Normal portion sizes for a good price. If you’re really hungry you might need an app! We enjoyed and was much quieter than many of the other restaraunts!
