Bread Tribeca

New York, New York, United States

Bread Tribeca is a restaurant located at the north end of Tribeca (triangle below Canal) in Manhattan, New York. We stumbled upon this restaurant while walking by, and decided to try it out. From the outside it appeared to be a deli style restaurant with sandwiches (with a name like "Bread" and the word Panini on the window.)

It turned out to be more of an Italian restaurant. The interior was an interesting combination of classy restaurant and cafe/deli. The tables were decorated with flowers and candles, but the restaurant had an open kitchen and warehouse style ceiling. The chairs and booths were actually not as comfortable as they looked.

Cost

This restaurant seemed a little over priced. The quality of the food was good, but they didn't have a fine-dining atmosphere. Entrees were between $17 - $30.

Items Ordered

Bread

Bread

After we made our order, a server brought a basket of bread with three types of bread options. We were asked which one we would like. Pictured here is the pretzel bread. It tasted just like a giant pretzel but in stick form. There was also a small platter of plain olive oil brought out for the bread.

Ricotta & Spinach Ravioli

Ravioli

The ravioli was absolutely delicious! It had a very nutty flavor, probably from the nut-brown butter which was really good. It tasted a little bit sweet and buttery like chestnuts. The dish was fairly small, although I found it quite filling. My only complaint is that it felt like it had been drenched in a little too much oil. It was very greasy and heavy to eat.

Dress

Casual dress seemed to be appropriate, although a slightly stylish casual would probably be the best way to describe it.

Parking

There was no specific parking for this restaurant. The area didn't seem to be too busy, so it might be possible to find some street parking. The restaurant is also located very close to a few different subway stops, so that may be a more convenient way to get there.
