Panorama Cafe, New York

Panorama Cafe peppers Italian favorites with Latin American staples, surprising palates with a delectable spread of brick-oven pizzas, veggie burritos filled with seasonal produce, and housemade pastas tossed with wild mushrooms and avocado. Thin-crust pizzas show off mouthwatering toppings such as prosciutto, arugula, fresh basil, and gorgonzola, and seemingly standard entrees tinker with culinary expectations: juicy steaks baste in sun-dried-tomato chimichurri salsa, and the panorama salad blends mixed greens, mango, and pistachio crusted-goat-cheese cakes. As diners feast on forkfuls of cuisine from the Old and New Worlds, a cozy ambience of soft light, earthy tones and cloth-clad tables nestles guests in a casual, yet elegant environment.
