Celebrate Our Newest Awards

The Michelin Guide and ZAGAT SURVEY Awards reflect the highest quality and standard of a restaurant. Very few restaurants receive both awards.

Michelin says "This new Italian gem arrives courtesy of one of the early owners behind TriBeCa's Pepolino, and those making their way to Long Island City's Vernon Blvd. will find a sexy, contemporary dining room fitted out in leather banquettes, votive candles, and white washed exposed brick walls."

The ZAGAT SURVEY says Testaccio "...is a new source of Culinary Sophistication...offers Authentic Roman Cuisine...in a rustic contemporary style."

Testaccio is making a SPECIAL offer for people who join its VIP CLUB. It is offering a complimentary glass of wine or dessert with lunch or dinner to celebrate it's Michelin Guide 2011 RECOMMENDED Award and its ZAGAT SURVEY 2011 Award.

A customer can redeem a glass of wine of the restaurant’s choice (white, red, rose), or a dessert with the purchase of lunch or dinner. (Restrictions apply.)
