Bartender

STARR Restaurants and James Beard Award–winning Chef Mark Ladner have reimagined Babbo — a storied Greenwich Village institution that helped define New York’s dining landscape.

The menu celebrates Italy’s rich regional traditions through Chef Ladner’s unique and visionary lens. This is complemented by a world-class wine program featuring benchmark producers and rare, cellar-worthy gems, recently recognized with the Star Wine List Award for Best Italian Wine List in New York and Wine Spectator’s Best of Award of Excellence.

Behind the bar, classic Italian aperitivo and amaro culture meet modern technique, with thoughtful interpretations of both classic and contemporary cocktails. The result is a bar program that feels distinctly Babbo: classic, playful, deeply Italian, and unmistakably New York.
