In a preview of her Off The Menu column in this Wednesday’s Dining section, Florence Fabricant reports:
A Voce, the restaurant that has been a showcase for Andrew Carmellini’s refined Italian food for the past two years, will be getting a twin. The second A Voce will take over the space on the third floor of [...]

A Voce preferred not to have photos taken of the food, so I can't share with you the chef's roasted beet salad, surmounted by greens; his grandma's ravioli, generously filled with (reportedly) a mixture of beef, veal, and pork and dressed with tomato sauce and parmigian cheese; and choux (under...

We were so excited to go to A Voce. It was our first night out in a few busy weeks, and we had heard great things about this restaurant, a critical favorite since its opening last year. The restaurant, it must be noted, has a solid pedigree. Its chef, Andrew Carmellini, spent six years at Café Boulud, and in 2005 won a James Beard Foundation award for best chef in NYC.

A Voce is a casual, upscale Italian restaurant found in the Flatiron District headed by Chef Andrew Carmelli. I went here for lunch during the Winter Restaurant Week 2007. The food is very good and the service is attentive, despite the fact it was more bustling than usual due to RW.

duck meatballs at a voce is the best item on the restaurant’s menu. it is also destined to become chef andrew carmellini’s signature dish , and i think every famous chef ought to have one because it gives diners a reason to go back to that restaurant . new york foodies are a fickle lot, always on the lookout for the latest and greatest, and new york is a dog eat dog competitive market . for restaurants it’s the ultimate darwinian laboratory. a foodie’s loyalty to a particular restaurant is only as good as their last meal there. why? because there’s another glitzy exciting restaurant opening up the next night with another award winning chef in the kitchen.

A Voce is the first solo restaurant by Andrew Carmellini, who had been the popular chef de cuisine at Café Boulud. It was one of the biggest hits of 2006, scoring three stars from Frank Bruni and another from Michelin. The restaurant is full almost every night of the week. I had wanted to visit a lot sooner, but it never seemed to be available when I was. When I saw that a 6:15 p.m. slot was available on Sunday evening, I grabbed it.

If you want to know what kind of restaurant I do approve of, the kind of restaurant that embodies all I love about eating out, look no further than A Voce.

A few weeks back we reserved a table for a Tuesday night at A Voce, Andrew Carmellini's sleek new Italian restaurant on Madison Park. We imagined a quiet evening at a restaurant that was gaining its bearings. Reservations were easily had, even if A Voce coolly required that diners (at least for our party of five) sign a contract, not just provide a credit card number. One must return a reservations form, scrawled in blood. What has happened to the gossamer trust between diner and restauranteur? When questioned, the reservationist asserted that ninety percent of New York restaurants have the same requirement. As a student of Italian geography, I can only respond "Bologna."

Every so often I will give a list of restaurant recommendations based on notable and recent dining experiences I've had. These aren't reviews. No one I know speaks in terms of stars ("Babbo is so three star - you should go!"), so I won't either.

One sentence was uttered frequently at my table last week while dining at A Voce, chef Andrew Carmellini’s flawless post-Café Boulud debut: “I want to eat here every day.”
FULL REVIEW
I went to Andrew Carmellini’s new restaurant A Voce last night and I am sorry to say I did not like it at all. I don’t say this meaning that you won’t like it, you may, but as far as my experience last night goes, they managed to do enough things exactly the opposite of how I believe they should be done that I would suggest not going.

A Voce opened up on March 8th in a neighborhood that seems to be blossoming with new restaurants. 26th and Madison, actually on 26th between Madison and Park. I am going to keep in mind that we dined at a restaurant that is only 2 weeks old.

So maybe I was that annoying girl in junior high who ran to the front of the line at recess, and I may have crossed the starting line before the official even blew the whistle, and just maybe, I ate at Andrew Carmellini's A Voce on opening night. A restaurant girl never tells.
FULL REVIEW
I had been unhappy with my last two experiences at I Trulli - mostly regarding the flight of wines I had at the enoteca one night. The smug and generally unpleasant bartender served one awful wine after the next (and in one unbelievable escapade...tried pouring me the same wine I had turned down).
