The restaurant’s decor shines as bright as the lights on the theaters’ marquis. The interior design with its high ceilings, expansive windows, and attractive accents invites a cheerful, delightful experience. Among the many touches is a dramatic draped ceiling installation, an awning-inspired bar canopy, and a color palate that will remind you of a bright and elegant Italian seaside resort. In the warm weather, guests can also choose al fresco dining.

Mark Barak, Owner and CEO of La Pecora Bianca stated, “For this location, we wanted to create something that feels bigger, bolder, and more energetic — a restaurant that responds to the scale and vibrancy of the Theater District while still feeling warm, transportive, and unmistakably Italian.”

We stopped by in the evening for an early dinner. In addition to La Pecora Bianca’s house favorites, there are menu items designed just for their new Theater District location. Guests who are off to a show appreciate the 3-course pre-theatre special that has delicious choices and ensures you will make your curtain right on time. Some of the pre-theater appetizers include Little Gem Caesar or Meatballs. Then choose from an entrée such as Tagliatelle Bolognese with rich sauce of beef and pork over al dente pasta, Chicken Paillard or Faroe Island Salmon. And top it off with a luscious cannoli.

If you prefer to order a la carte, there are some menu items that shouldn’t be missed. Order a Neapolitan style pizza for the table with enticing toppings like their Margharita, Truffle with mascarpone, parmesan, black truffle, whipped ricotta, or our favorite, the Salsiccia topped with house-made sausage, jimmy nardello peppers, and onions.

Appetizers include a fan-favorite, the Too Much Fried Mozzarella. It is breaded and crispy on the outside with melty mozzarella on the inside, served with vodka sauce and pesto. The Roasted Cauliflower is the best you’ll ever have served with grapes, fresno chili, parmesan breadcrumbs.

Tantalizing mains include the LPB Burger and Branzino along with entrees that are exclusive to the location include the Pork Piccata, Linguine with Jumbo Lump Crab, Fusilli Gigante, and the NY Strip Steak. Add a side for the table that includes their Asparagus with tomato butter or Crispy Brussels Sprouts served with rosemary honey, lemon, and chili flakes. With so many great selections, you will be inspired to return again soon.

The beverage menu is vibrant and pairs beautifully with food choices. It’s Spritz season and La Pecora Bianca has unique refreshing ones like their Raspberry Limoncello Spritz with limoncello and fresh raspberry topped with prosecco. Irresistible craft cocktails include their Out of Office, a balanced blend of tequila, mezcal, aperol, pineapple, and lime. Wines with an emphasis on Italian producers and beer is also available. And for those that prefer there are Zero-Proof drinks.
