Motorino Pizza — Restaurant in New York

I'd strongly recommend this restaurant to those Asian folks who have plenty of time and patience.

The food here is exquisite. The pizza and salads were delightful. The staff at this restaurant are all very friendly. But of course, this recommendation only applies if you happen to be white. If you're Asian, you'd find yourself entering the restaurant after you, yet the white customers who ordered after you would have received their pizza and almost finished eating by the time you still haven't received your food. Of course, there won't be anyone to explain that to you. Oh, if you're a white visitor to this restaurant, you won't have this issue, so feel free to visit as much as you please. However, if you're an Asian with limited time and a rumbling stomach, well, the food might be delicious, but I'm not quite sure if it's worth enduring such treatment. In New York, you can easily experience food that's just as good, if not better, in plenty of other restaurants. But on another note, I couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness. It's disheartening to witness the subtle racial discrimination from the staff in a city as diverse as New York. We're learning a lot about diversity, but unfortunately, not everyone has access to education. It's a source of pity and sadness for us. I hope everyone can easily access education about diversity. For the sake of instant gratification (although I'm not exactly sure what they truly desire), I hope they don't hide their lack of education. If they were a bit smarter, perhaps this restaurant could have...

We’ve been here numerous times. The artichoke appetizer is beyond amazing: never over cooked, grilled to sear, bathed in a pool of freshly squeezed lemon juice, salt, garlic,and capers. Don’t let them take the plate away when you’re done! Use the remaining dressing to pour it on your pizza. Also pictured is their fennel salad, served with capers, sliced radish and red onion, olives, raisins, a few dill fronds,and oranges. Fabulous mix of textures and flavors. We always have an argument about which pizza to share; I want to taste each one and the SO always insists on his favorite- the shaved Brussels sprout one. Before you yell “I HATE Brussels sprouts!”, please know that the shavings arrive on a perfectly baked, puffy yet chewy crust, with the addition of fior di latte mozzarella, garlic, pecorino, and EVOO. It’s so good, you’ll just want to collapse into a puddle of happiness after you eat it. I’ve been exceptionally content with everything I’ve ever eaten here- complex flavors and simple, good quality prep combine to make the place well worth waiting...
