Inspired by his family & their home-cooked meals, Vallata is Tom Colicchio's first ever Italian restaurant located at 19th & Park, just steps from Union Square Park. First a pop-up, now a permanent resident, Vallata shares straightforward Italian cooking in an intimate and eclectic space.

Vallata is a neighborhood trattoria where the abundance of the local region is used to create simple, straightforward dishes that are fully executed in a lively open kitchen and also available for pickup & delivery. Open for dinner nightly and weekday lunch, Vallata aims to remind us of the connective powers of food & family.
