How to book Borgo

Borgo is a trattoria at 124 East 27th Street from Brooklyn restaurateur Andrew Tarlow, whose other places include Diner, Marlow & Sons, Roman's and She Wolf Bakery^2,3. It began service on September 27, 2024 in a space that had been a restaurant for 25 years, and it is Tarlow's first restaurant in Manhattan^3,5. Jordan Frosolone is the chef, Elijah Tarlow is chef de cuisine, and Lee Campbell is the wine director¹.

The restaurant calls itself a neighborhood trattoria serving seasonal, wood-fired cooking built around a hearth¹. A working fireplace joins the two main dining rooms, an outdoor courtyard is strung with lights, and the space holds about 140 guests including the courtyard and the bar³. Reviewers describe white tablecloths, taper candles and widely spaced tables⁴, plus a black and marble bar and a back garden full of plants⁵.

The menu is à la carte: Focaccia Borgo and other starters, a rotating set of four or five pastas, and wood-oven mains such as chicken marsala and whole roasted branzino^1,3. Lunch, an afternoon aperitivo and dinner run seven days a week¹. Tables open on Resy 21 days ahead at 10am, and the restaurant encourages walk-ins¹; the bar seats and three tables in the bar area are kept for them⁴.
