"Ever wanted to find a homey Italian place to eat? Search no more. Itโ€™s Arco. A small consistently good spot on Amsterdam."

โœ๐Ÿป There's nothing better than hearing our guests feel at home here.

Thank you Gwen for this special review!

โค๏ธ Some news still feels a little unreal! Arco Cafe has been named #39 on Yelpโ€™s Top 100 Pasta Places in the U.S. 2026.

When we opened our doors, we just wanted to bring a piece of our island to this city: handmade pasta, warm focaccia, and a place where everyone feels like family.

We never did it for the recognition. We did it for the people around the table. So if weโ€™re on this list today, itโ€™s because of you, every guest, every review, every evening spent with us.

๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป Grazie from the bottom of our hearts.

In Sardinia's Blue Zones, minestrone is a daily ritual, one of the little secrets behind a long, good life.

Ours is slow-cooked with vegetables, legumes, and fregula, simple and nourishing, just the way it should be.

๐Ÿ‚ Autumn has arrived on the Upper West Side.

Cooler days, golden light, and the kind of food that feels like a warm hug.

At Arco Cafe, fall means fresh pasta, just-baked focaccia, and flavors that make the season feel a little cozier.

โค๏ธ Come warm up with us at 886 Amsterdam Ave, open daily from 12 PM to 9:30 PM.

Every ingredient has its own flavor, texture, and character. But what really makes a dish special is how they come together โ€” in the right balance, with each one bringing something different to the plate.

That's why today we're putting the spotlight on the ingredients behind some of our favorite dishes.

๐Ÿ In Italy, the last step is the one that matters most.

A generous handful of Pecorino. A crack of black pepper. A few spoonfuls of hot pasta water, stirred until everything turns silky.

That's how our Malloreddus pepe e pecorino come together: the ridged shells holding on to every bit of that creamy, peppery sauce.

Simple ingredients. It's all in the technique.

โค๏ธ From birthday celebrations to dinners with friends and family, we love being part of the moments that bring people together around the table.

"One of my closest friends recommended Arco for a group for my birthday. They were so accommodating when we reduced the group size from 12 to 8. They have home made pasta - and you can buy fresh pasta to take away!

Fun, cozy Upper West Side Italian food with fantastic menu options, great service, and great food. I highly recommend it for romantic evenings or larger groups. You will not be disappointed in a city full of some of the best Italian food outside of Italy."

โ˜๐Ÿป Some of our favorite dishes never make it onto the menu.

They're our daily specials, created around the fresh and seasonal ingredients available in our kitchen.

You'll find them on our specials board in the dining room, but you can always ask our staff to tell you what's being served that day.
