We’d like to give kudos to our friends at Maneli Wilson Interiors<\/a> for rave reviews of their recent work, featuring our cement tile pattern, Cubes. Sotto 13<\/a> opened in November as a runaway hit in New York’s West Village. This new darling destination of the local critics features Italian tapas, brick-oven pizzas, and cocktails by acclaimed mixologist Frankie Oley, but few can help but comment on the amazing decor.<\/p>\n

\""Cubes"<\/a><\/p>\n

Our Cubes pattern<\/a> was used on the wall surrounding the kitchen’s window… a focal point for the flow of food through the restaurant. We also couldn’t help but spot an ingenious use for some of the left-over tiles: they are framed within the side of the hostess stand. On your next project you may consider ordering a little extra… finishing touches like these can really help tie a theme together.<\/p>\n

\nAmong the mountains of praise, Jones Magazine<\/a> proclaims that Sotto 13 “offers rustic decor with a modern twist and perfect ambiance.”<\/strong><\/em> CBS New York<\/a> touts Sotto 13 as “perfect for a West Village date night,”<\/strong><\/em> and NewForkCity<\/a> says “it’s the decor that brings you in”<\/strong><\/em>, but the food that brings you back. What more can a restaurateur want from their decor than to provide the perfect, inviting setting to showcase their craft? Perhaps a mention by one of the largest travel magazines in the country?<\/p>\n

Not only has Sotto 13 earned a mention by Travel + Leisure Magazine<\/strong>, their grand entrance to the scene has placed them among “America’s Most Romantic Restaurants”<\/a>. Writing for www.travelandleisure.com<\/a>, Brendan Spiegel cites Sotto 13’s “alluring space” among the attributes that landed it so high on the list.<\/p>\n

No matter what your project, we’re sure our Villa Lagoon Tile, hand-made cement tile<\/a> can provide a warmth and sophistication that can perfectly accent any vision.<\/p>\n

Take a look at just a few other restaurant installations:<\/p>\n
