about scarpetta

The original Scarpetta opened in New York City’s Meatpacking District in 2008 to a critically acclaimed 3-star review from the NY Times. The restaurant’s name is derived from the Italian expression, “fare la Scarpetta,” which means to savor a meal to the last bite. The philosophy of Scarpetta’s kitchen is to create bold flavors by amplifying the essence of seasonal ingredients. The signature pastas are made in-house daily and are paired with the highest quality, locally-sourced ingredients. Scarpetta’s famous Spaghetti Tomato & Basil is nothing short of classic simplicity in both taste and preparation. Group gatherings onsite at our restaurant may not be possible right now, but we’re still passionate about being able to bring the Scarpetta experience to you. Over the years we have had the opportunity to cook outside of our kitchen for many special events, and now we are so excited to introduce ‘Scarpetta at Home’ - bringing our Scarpetta kitchen to yours. Make your Scarpetta at Home event completely yours, with customizable menu options, optional wine pairings, pre-batched cocktails, onsite Sommelier for hire, and live chef demos.

executive chef jorge espinoza

Originally from Queretaro, Mexico, Jorge grew up assisting his parents in the kitchen and was influenced by their passion and love for cooking. His mother brought flavor and tradition to the kitchen, while his father was the creative one, and Jorge inherited both qualities. In 2000, Jorge moved to New York to pursue his passion for cooking. He started out as a butcher at Monkey Bar, and then moved on to work with Chef David Walzog at Tapika as a line cook for almost 3 years. Chef David was a mentor for Jorge, who introduced him to technique in the kitchen and taught him a lot of cooking secrets. Although Jorge was a full-time employee at Tapika, he also had several part-time jobs in order to get as much experience and exposure in the kitchen as possible. Jorge’s passion and interest in Italian cuisine led him to opening L’imperó in 2003. After that, Jorge worked on opening Alto and Tutto il Giorno in the Hamptons. Through colleagues, Jorge was introduced to John Meadow and LDV Hospitality, and collectively opened Scarpetta in Meatpacking. In 2015, Jorge with LDV opened Scarpetta Beach in Montauk, followed by Scarpetta Philadelphia in 2016, and Scarpetta Newport summer 2017. Most recently, Chef Jorge supported the team in the opening of Scarpetta’s London location, at Bvlgari Hotel London.
