Carastina

Situated in the old Raffaele Ristorante spot in Midtown East, this updated spot has all the makings of a trattoria in Tuscan. It’s not just the Northern Italian fare they serve that brings to mind dining in abroad: One step inside their airy, rustic space and you're practically jetted away to an Italian staycation. Of course, dishes like the lobster heavy arogosta arrabiatta and the yellow fin laden tartara de tonno help seal the deal.
