While comfort food dishes come from around the world, Italian food hits the spot for those who appreciate deep tomato-rich, olive oil-paired flavors. In New York, there is one place to find authentic Italian food and have your culinary needs met: Arthur Avenue, aka the Bronx's Little Italy.
With tens of thousands of Italians making their way to the U.S. at the end of the 19th century, establishing community and business became paramount. Arthur Avenue in the vibrant Belmont neighborhood became one of those places. With many businesses still family owned after a century, The Bronx's Little Italy is a testament to legacy weaving and love for tradition and heritage.
