The Story Behind Don Angie, the Restaurant With the Hardest Reservation to Get in NYC, with Angie Rito and Scott Tacinelli

Don Angie is one of the hardest restaurants to get into in New York City—and the most requested reservation on dining apps—and Katie sits down with the chefs behind it, Angie Rito and Scott Tacinelli. They share how they first met cooking together at Park Avenue Seasons, bonded over their Italian roots, and honed their craft at top NYC kitchens like Quality Meats and Torrisi, before opening Don Angie, now famous for its iconic lasagna.In this episode, Angie and Scott also talk about their newest restaurant, San Sabino, a seafood-focused spot, their cookbook Italian American: Red Sauce Classics and New Essentials, and how they balance the demanding restaurant life with raising their five-year-old son. Whether you love Italian food, restaurant stories, or behind-the-scenes NYC dining, this is a fun and inspiring conversation about cooking from the heart, building a buzz-worthy restaurant, and making family life work along the way. Follow Don Angie @donangienyc, @angie.rito, and @stacinelli.Check out their cookbook, Italian American https://amzn.to/41co481KINSYN: Head to KINSYN.com/table to take a free quiz and get personalized recommendations guided by real healthcare providers and tailored to your unique biology.For more Katie Lee, follow along on:YouTube: Katie Lee KitchenIG: @katieleebiegel @allonthetableofficial  TikTok: @KatieLeeBiegel @allonthetableofficialFacebook: Katie Lee BiegelProduced by Dear Media.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
