A True Italian Treasure in the Heart of Little Italy
E. Rossi & Company is nothing short of a piccolo paradiso italiano — the perfect little Italian store that has absolutely everything you could dream of. Stepping inside feels like stepping back in time, where tradition, family, and culture are proudly preserved and celebrated.
From floor to ceiling, every inch of this beloved emporium is brimming with authentic Italian treasures: religious merchandise that stirs the soul, beautiful espresso cups perfect for your morning ritual, charming aprons, hand-crafted rolling pins, exquisite rosary beads, and of course, the iconic stovetop espresso makers that every true Italian kitchen must have. There’s something incredibly special about seeing such an abundant and lovingly curated selection all in one place — it’s a nostalgic journey for anyone with Italian roots or a love for la dolce vita.
E. Rossi & Company is my absolute favorite negozio for finding unique gifts, meaningful keepsakes, and little pieces of Italy to bring home. Every visit reminds me of family traditions, Sunday dinners, and the importance of keeping our heritage alive. This store is a true cultural gem and a testament to the beauty and richness of Italian tradition.
I cannot recommend E. Rossi & Company enough — un negozio perfetto che porta l’Italia nel cuore di New York.

Ernie was nice to speak with - he introduced us to his grandfather, father, and wife from the photos on the wall when I asked. Deepest condolences for his loss of dear wife Margaret due to Covid...
