Pulcinella! serves Sicilian-Italian dishes built from family recipes in a converted space on St. Bernard Avenue, a short walk from the French Quarter, Marigny, Treme, and Bywater. The restaurant operates as casual fine dining under Executive Chef Shea Vidrine, with Bella Blue, Andrew Principe, and JD Solomon rounding out the ownership team.
The menu centers on a handful of signature dishes: Seafood Cannelloni made with fresh Gulf seafood, Eggplant Parmesan layered with house-made marinara, and Bucatini all'amatriciana with guanciale, San Marzano tomatoes, and pecorino romano. There's also a meatball made from a family recipe passed down through generations.
An Italian-focused wine list runs to more than 80 bottles from across Italy, with additional selections bringing the full list to around 130. Upstairs, under the same Dirty Dime Productions roof, the Original Nite Cap runs a separate program of cocktails, burlesque, drag, comedy, and live music.
