Joe Isidori, the acclaimed Michelin-starred chef behind Arthur & Sons, has unveiled a new outpost of his beloved Italian-American eatery at the Pod 39 Hotel in Midtown Manhattan (145 East 39th St.). This marks the fourth location of the wildly popular restaurant, following its flagship West Village location and expansions in the Hamptons.
Staying true to the brand’s hallmark style, the 1,500-square-foot Midtown restaurant is a love letter to the New York Italian-American dining scene of the 1990s. Guests are greeted with a vibrant red-and-gold interior featuring plush banquettes, vintage Tiffany-style lighting, and nostalgic family photos. At the heart of the space is a 20-seat bar, making it an ideal spot for after-work cocktails or leisurely dinners.
Arthur & Sons’ menu continues to shine with its “old school” red sauce classics, showcasing crowd-pleasers like Chicken Parm, Veal Valdastano, and Spicy Rigatoni alla Vodka. New salads such as Artie’s Chopped Salad and My Grandmother’s Tomato & Cucumber Salad join appetizers like the Eggplant Stack and Artie’s Garlic Bread with Cheese. For dessert, the house-made frozen Spumoni My Way, Cannoli, and Tiramisu bring an indulgent end to any meal.
As an added treat, Chef Isidori’s signature red sauce line—including Marinara, Alla Vodka, Fra Diavolo, and Spicy Vodka varieties—will also be available for purchase, allowing guests to recreate the Arthur & Sons experience at home.
With its lively ambiance, nostalgic charm, and expertly crafted Italian-American cuisine, the new Arthur & Sons at Pod 39 Hotel is a must-visit destination for both locals and visitors alike.
