Bronx and surrounding area, locate the restaurant called Beccofino

Tucked into the quaint, family-oriented Bronx neighborhood of Riverdale, Beccofino sets a pretty, idyllic stage straight away—with large inviting windows overlooking a leafy, residential street and a rustic osteria interior outfitted with exposed brick walls, terra-cotta floors, and a handful of tables topped with deli paper. Beccofino's menu is pure Italian-American comfort, with hand-crafted dishes that prioritize fresh ingredients over inventiveness. Most nights, you'll find a healthy list of hand-written daily specials, along with dishes like cappellini primavera with fresh, plump shrimp, vegetables, a touch of cream, and grated Parmesan; a very homey rendition of fettuccine Alfredo; and pineapple sorbet served in the freshly frozen fruit.
