The name Becco is derived from the Italian verb, beccare, which means "to peck, nibble or savor something in a discriminating way." Lidia Bastianich and her son, Joe, opened Becco in 1993, and since then it has been providing New York diners with outstanding service for over 23 years. Located on New York's famed Restaurant Row in the Theatre District, Becco is open seven days a week for lunch and dinner. Becco is most famous for its innovative pasta tasting menu and extensive wine list, featuring more than 100 bottles of wine, all priced at $29.
