About Us
As a life-long resident of Little Italy, whose grandparents settled on Mulberry Street after emigrating from Naples in the early 20th century, I was determined to make Il Piccolo Bufalo an authentic Neapolitan trattoria when I opened in 2003. I was raised in a family that loved and respected food, and I wanted to open a place that would be both modern and authentic, featuring most of the delectable Neapolitan dishes that I remembered so fondly from my youth, especially the stuffed artichoke. I think we make the best stuffed artichoke in the city. It’s the same recipe my grandparents brought with them from Naples but I have been improving on it ever since. It’s still a work – a great work – in progress.” Different than most other Italian restaurants in the area, Il Piccolo Bufalo is a traditional trattoria, with a breezy attractive space and a very diverse menu that appeals to young families and the young professionals who have been moving into the area in recent years. Unlike most of the other older restaurants in the community, which feature mostly male wait staffs, we feature female servers who are courteous, friendly and professional. Our outdoor café, with its replica of Michelangelo’s Statue of David, is a humorous reminder that we are an informal friendly restaurant.
