Del Posto 2409 pairs intimate coastal Italian dining in Rye with sharp, tableside hospitality. The kitchen leans into handmade pasta craft—most notably the squid ink lasagna layered with blue swimmer crab, ricotta, and tomato sugo. Regulars praise the wide pappardelle tossed in slow-cooked ragu, crisp golden arancini, and a dining room where wine glasses stay filled and tableside pepper arrives right on cue. Dinner winds down over house tiramisu or crisp roast potatoes paired with local Victorian wines.
- Signature Blue Swimmer Crab Lasagna: Squid ink pasta sheets folded with sweet blue swimmer crab, ricotta, and rich sugo offer an inventive spin on coastal comfort.
- Attentive Front-of-House Care: Tables receive proactive fine-dining touches like timely water top-ups and tableside pepper service inside a cozy bistro room.
