Bartender / Server

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

Chef Ladner's return to the very kitchen where his culinary journey began is nothing short of momentous. Building on his celebrated work at Lupa and Del Posto — where he earned two Michelin stars and a four-star New York Times review — his reimagined menu will honor Italy's rich regional traditions through his unique and visionary lens. This is paired with a world-class wine program featuring benchmark producers and rare, cellar-worthy gems.
