Gemma’s Her Name

Summer cocktails. Three hour lunches. Midday siestas.

Sometimes you just want to stay on Holiday.

Recapture the pleasure of rustic country living at Gemma, the Bowery Hotel’s new crown jewel Italian restaurant.

Gemma’s interiors mix old-world elegance with a clean modern edge. Rich wooden floors and ceilings show off the candelabras and pale marble throughout the space. The country-inspired interiors will make you feel at home, but the wood burning pizza oven coupled with the Prosciutto di Parma on display will remind you you’re in one of the city’s hottest new restaurants.

Delicious offerings throughout the multi-course menu will make you want one of everything, and that’s great - the menu encourages sharing. Bring a friend or three and start with the Fiori Di Zucca (crispy zucchini flowers with ricotta), and select from over ten cheese varieties. Entrees move from classic pasta dishes to staple pizzas and meat dishes.

Balance the meal with some dolci (check out the dolci menu). Desserts include a fine assortment of gelatos like Banana or the unexpected Olio di Oliva (olive oil), sorbets, and rich pastries like the Tartaletta di Mascarpone (mascarpone cheese tartlette with port cherries).

A sweet ending to your little Italian holiday.


Gemma opens tonight (7/9).
