Partners the Maccioni Family
Mario, Marco, Mauro, Sirio and Egidiana
Clearly a love of the restaurant world runs in the Maccioni family. Today, the three high-energy Maccioni sons (Mario, Marco and Mauro) are immersed in the business, just like their parents, and the family recently opened Osteria del Circo (Circus Tavern), a fun, young and dynamic spot at 120 West 55th Street. The immediate success of Circo has done Sirio, the father, proud.
Opened in 1996, Osteria del Circo is another creation of Mr. Maccioni and his wife, who is the supervising chef and their sons, who are the ringmasters, hosts and owners of Circo.
Designed by Adam D. Tihany to be as exciting as a European carnival tent, the colorful décor of Circo is innovative, whimsical and vibrant. But, unlike a circus tent, the restaurant is comfortable, the fabrics luxurious and the custom-designed Italian chairs deep and seductive.
Yet walk through the door of this inviting room and you will know immediately that no matter how playful the décor, the menu is decidedly serious. Draw a deep breath and the intoxicating fragrance of fresh herbs, roasting meats and robust sauces immediately whets the appetite. Then sit down in one of those comfortable chairs and have a plate full of traditional Italian Antipasti with an assortment of cheese, salumi and bruschetta. Or, "Il Cacciucco", a classic Tuscan fisherman's soup with calamari, clams, mussles, shrimp, monkfish and langostino. Or, maybe a plate of Matriarch "Mama Egi's" ravioli recipe of sheep's milk ricotta cheese, spinach, swiss chard in a butter sage sauce. Or how about Circo's signature rack of lamb with pecorino cheese and thyme?
Such dishes, a blend of Mrs. Maccioni's traditional home cooking and an array of superb ingredients, are prepared with consummate skill by Chef de Cuisine Massimiliano Campanari suggest the sumptuous feast Osteria del Circo will bring to the table.
Combine such food with the Maccioni charm - "We will continue with Papa Sirio's heritage of hospitality," say Mauro, Mario and Marco - and you have a restaurant that promises to be exceptional.
