A hidden Italian gem in the Theatre District!  We stopped in to Gallo Nero, a rustic, wood-accented small restaurant serving a taste of Italy, on our way to see Linda Lavin in “Our Mother‘s Brief Affair.

The bread is the type you hope for: warm, with a chewy crust and dense interior served with olive oil. Portions are hearty and shareable.

We started with the simple Caesar salad topped with thick slices of cheese and some croutons ($10). Don’t miss their gooey cheesy lasagna ($16), dripping with cheese … just like homemade.

With all this we sipped the earthy Sangiovese Superiore Di Romagna Nespoli 2011 Emilia-Romagna ($12)

If you’re on the way to Broadway, do stop at this friendly and comfy neighborhood place serving good food at reasonable price. I wouldn’t though recommend the show — I’m usually a fan of anything Linda Lavin does but not this production as it dragged.
