Joanne brings to you the flavors of a home-cooked Italian meal. The restaurant offers a romantic setting of timeless charm with fireplaces, an open patio, a private dining room, and a cozy bar.

The menu and service reflect the warmth and attention of being a house. Some regulars say "it has the look and feel of Greenwich Village on the Upper West Side"

We feature fresh pasta, artisanal pizza & other great Italian staples, like chicken scarpariello, eggplant parmigiana, & lasagna. We have many vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options.

    Fantastic Evening at Joanne's Trattoria! Delicious dinners - truffle gnocchi, eggplant parmesan, grilled salmon - and super attentive service from servers Amir and Anna. The dining room is beautifully decorated for Christmas. A fabulous time was had by all, we will be back there soon!

    We loved our experience at Joanne! They have long been a favorite for a nice meal near Lincoln Center with good gluten free options for my family members with celiac. This time, we also learned they have a nut free kitchen, which was wonderful for another member of our party with a severe nut allergy. The servers were very kind and the live music on the patio was lovely—festive but not too loud. Everyone had a delicious, warm, winter dinner before our show and we'll be back!

    The overall experience was wonderful. The service was fantastic. It’s a cozy and quaint space with excellent food and drink. It was a bit pricier, but the portions were also very appropriate in relation. Would definitely dine here again.

    The kids dishes (pizza and chicken fingers) arrived on time but the fries were too thin and salty , the pizza sauce was too sweet and the chicken wasn’t great either. The food for the grownups came out 30 minutes later and was pretty bad. Very overrated!!!
