Forsythia was born out of the kitchens of Italy and the Lower East Side. We have a foundation in Italian cooking and New York hospitality, and are excited to share that with you. We make fresh pasta daily in-house, as well as freshly baked breads and desserts. We live and work in a thoroughly Italian way and are excited to welcome you into our home. We offer a three course $40 pre-fixe option at the bar, and a $79 five course meal at our tables.
Housemade pasta & creative mains turned out in a charming eatery that has outdoor seating.

Bit of a mixed bag here. The room is cool, chill vibes, good music and lighting and professional, friendly service. We had the “surprise” 6 course tasting menu. There was definitely a problem in the kitchen because there were some extremely long delays between courses, our meal took 2 1/2 hours.
We started with the complimentary focaccia, delicious and we went for the ricotta upcharge, $10 for 2 tablespoons of ricotta. Not sure the value proposition was there.
Flavors were generally on point, the eggplant with some charred greens was OK but didn’t love it. Favorite dish was the crab agnolotti, scrumptious.
The bucatini served before that was perfectly cooked, but was excessively salty, apparently because of the capers as we mentioned the issue to the server. However, it definitely tasted like someone slipped with the salt shaker. Our main was a kind of disappointing plate of mini meatballs in a sweet and savory sauce. Interesting but for $129 menu maybe we expected more than mini meatballs.
Dessert was a scoop of peach and Prosecco sorbet, refreshing, but a little bit underwhelming for dessert on a tasting menu. I guess as I am writing this I kind of wanted to like it more than I actually ended up liking it.

This place was spectacular! We got the agnolotti and the rabbit ragu along with the salad. I make pasta art from scratch at home as a hobby so visiting here and eating the handmade pasta has been a dream of mine. The service was so friendly and efficient. Everything lived up to the hype! I only visit NYC one day a year and this restaurant is worth it.

We didn’t have a reservation and only stopped by for a glass of champagne. When they realized we were celebrating our marriage, they surprised us with a delicious dessert on the house, which was incredibly kind and thoughtful.
The entire place has such positive energy — great atmosphere, beautiful presentation, and amazing food (looking good on the tables). Every detail felt special. Without a doubt, we will be coming back the next time we’re in New York.

Cozy small restaurant great for groups of 2-4ppl. They have a curated seasonal menu and nice wine pairings.
The Foccacia was so fresh and almost croissant flaky
All of our pastas were excellent

i had the most incredible birthday dinner at forsythia and i’m still thinking about it this morning ! having worked in the service industry for over 15 years, i’ve experienced a wide range of dining experiences and i can confidently say this was some of the best service i’ve ever had.
huge thanks to the incredibly talented chefs for such a memorable meal and to bill, our server, whose warmth, attentiveness, and deep knowledge of wine and spirits made the night exceptional. my family was visiting from out of state for the occasion and they were deeply impressed by his pairings. truly a one of a kind experience <3 we love u!
the food was extraordinary, without question the best pasta i’ve ever had outside of rome. the pappardelle was perfectly silky, the agnolotti rich and comforting, and the stuffed squash blossoms were so delicate yet bursting with flavor the dash of cinnamon almost made me cry !! every dish felt like a masterclass in balance and execution. 🙂
how this restaurant doesn’t already have a star or two is beyond me. forsythia is an absolute gem. thank you for making my birthday unforgettable. i can’t wait to return.
much much much love xo

The host was unfriendly, which made for a poor first impression. Thankfully, our server was fantastic and very attentive. Unfortunately, there was no space to hang my coat, so I had to keep it on my lap throughout the meal. The portions were disappointingly small and very overpriced. The area itself felt uncomfortable and a bit strange. Overall, it’s expensive and definitely not worth it.

There’s a thoughtful elegance to the dining experience here. Stylish without trying too hard. The menu is tight, but every dish lands. Handmade pastas are treated as a craft, not a commodity. Lighting is soft, details are considered, and the service is polished yet relaxed, making you feel at ease while still taken care of.
The meal begins with house focaccia. Soft enough to tear with your hands, warm enough that you’ll soak up every last drop of olive oil. From there, the misticanza salad offers simple greens elevated by the delicate crunch of pistachios. Then comes the suppli, arancini but not quite arancini, with cacio e pepe risotto. Squash blossoms arrive crisp and golden, warm with ricotta, balanced by a bright salsa rossa. The agnolotti are perfect pockets of slow-braised short rib. It’s pasta at an A+ level, topped and brightened by fresh chives. For dessert, the honey olive oil cake arrives looking like a small work of art. The cake itself is moist, fragrant, and surprisingly light. Equal parts presentation and flavor, memorable in both. Everything is executed at Forsythia with surgical precision. This is a restaurant where meticulous care is found in every plate.

Cute little spot with very attentive service. We got the agnolotti and the ragu. The pasta was very well made and super thin. Both dishes could have used a little more seasoning to make them pop.

I was a walk-in, and sat at the bar. The host was a bit cold (I was the only person whose coat he didn’t offer to take on a rainy night), but my server was fantastic. So kind and attentive. He took the time to walk me through the menu and suggest things I might like.
The food was well made and tasty. The only thing I really didn’t like was having a 22% tip imposed on me at the end as a surprise. I was a single diner. I could understand 18% as part of a group (as is the norm) but since when was 22% the baseline? Won’t be back because of this. If you really need to pay your staff better, perhaps raise the prices on your menu so at least diners know what they’re in for.
