🇮🇹 In Italy, some of life's most meaningful moments happen around a table.

Not because of what's being served, but because of the people sharing it.

That's why we're excited about , a neighborhood event that will bring the Upper West Side together for an evening of food, conversation, and community on June 14.

❤️ We hope to see many familiar faces there.

🍝 Meet Malloreddus, one of Sardinia’s most iconic pasta shapes.

Often called Sardinian gnocchetti, these small, ridged shells are handmade to perfectly hold rich, flavorful sauces. Their rustic texture and traditional shape have made them a staple of Sardinian cuisine for generations.

At Arco Cafe, we honor tradition by serving them with classic sausage ragù, just like in Sardinia. Still, we also love exploring new flavors with creamy pepe e pecorino and other seasonal variations.

Swipe through the carousel to discover how we bring this Sardinian classic to the table.

Do you know what the Italian term "Al Dente" means?

It’s the secret to pasta that’s perfectly firm, not mushy: just the right bite!

🍝 This way, every piece holds up to the sauce, soaking up all that flavor like it’s meant to.

🌱 Minestrone is celebrated worldwide as a secret to longevity, cherished for its simple recipe. It’s a staple for the centenarian elders in Sardinia’s Blue Zones, where it’s often enjoyed as a main course.

Our version features fresh, seasonal vegetables, legumes, and fregula, a traditional Sardinian pasta.

❤️ Here at Arco, we love pairing it with a glass of wine and our freshly baked focaccia bread to enhance the flavors fully.

❤️ From Sardinia to the Upper West Side.

Some restaurants serve food. We share a piece of our island. The traditions, the flavors, and the warmth of a Sardinian table, right here on Amsterdam Avenue.

Sardinia is not like the rest of Italy. We developed a cuisine entirely its own, bold and rooted in the land and sea.

That's exactly what you'll find here at Arco: simple dishes that tell you a lot about our roots.

📍If you want to try the authentic cuisine of our island, you'll find us at 886 Amsterdam Avenue, open every day from noon to 9:30 pm.
