šŸ‡®šŸ‡¹ The Story Behind Trattoria Trecolori

At the center of our story is a family. In the early 1990s, JoaquĆ­n ā€œJackā€ GonzĆ”lez opened the doors of a small Italian restaurant in Manhattan. Fueled by a love for traditional recipes and genuine hospitality, his vision quickly grew. The restaurant moved to its current location at 254 W 47th Street, right in the middle of Broadway's most iconic theaters, and became known as Trattoria Trecolori—a tribute to Italy’s tricolor flag and the values it represents: passion, heritage, and authenticity.

After Jack’s passing, his sons Marco, Victor, and Phil continued his legacy, turning Trecolori into a beloved neighborhood staple and one of the most celebrated Italian restaurants in Midtown NYC.

šŸ· The Essence of Italian Dining

What sets Trattoria Trecolori apart is our unwavering commitment to authenticity. Every dish on our menu is inspired by the rustic kitchens of Italy—from handmade pastas to slow-cooked sauces, fresh seafood, and hearty meats.

We import many of our ingredients directly from Italy and prepare everything in-house with care. Some of our guest favorites include:

  • Veal Sorrentino – Layered with prosciutto, eggplant, and mozzarella

  • Frito Misto – A mix of crispy calamari, shrimp, zucchini, and cherry peppers

  • Gnocchi alla Baba – House-made potato-ricotta dumplings with tomato-basil sauce

  • I Rigatoni – Rigatoni with diced chicken, spicy sausage, and rosemary in a creamy tomato sauce

  • Trecolori Salad – A mix of arugula, radicchio, and endive with Asiago and balsamic vinaigrette

And of course, desserts like tiramisu and cannoli are always the perfect ending.
