Klum and Briatore, along with their 20-year-old daughter Leni, were seen enjoying a wide array of bites on the menu, which features mouthwatering starters like crispy focaccia, burrata, spinach salad with honey sesame dressing and calamari fritti with zucchini.

The new establishment also serves up pastas like pennette all’arrabiata and linguine alle vongole.

For their pizza pies, diners had a choice of a classic Margherita; the Vesuvio made with Buffalo mozzarella and smoked provolone; and the Tartufo prepared with truffle paste, mushrooms and fresh black truffle shavings. An off-menu Hawaiian-style pineapple pizza was made specially for Klum.

Klum enthusiastically shared a video of tableside tiramisu being prepared. Meanwhile, another sweet treat featured on the menu is a fluffy pastry topped with crème anglaise, sour cherries and rum dubbed the Crazy Babà.

“You know what this pizza is? It’s crazy!” Klum and Leni said in unison as they bit down on a thin-crust slice of Margherita pizza.

The open-kitchen concept creates a warm and inviting atmosphere complimented by sleek red interiors and white tablecloth-topped tables.

Each guest was treated to a personalized embroidered napkin, as well as hand-drawn sketches by New York City-based cartoon artist Arianna Margulis a.k.a. ButLikeMaybe.

Margulis was also the artist behind the masterful hand-painted artworks lining the walls, showcasing celebrities enjoying Italian cuisine in the Big Apple.

The room was illuminated by a prominent pizza-shaped disco ball with heart-shaped pepperoni that was created by disco ball artist Sophie Lopez, also known as TownGirlDisco.

The custom disco ball was “handcrafted in London and shipped over especially for the restaurant opening in New York City,” Lopez tells Page Six on Wednesday.

Klum and Briatore, 74, dated in 2003 and share daughter Leni.

Crazy Pizza, located at 218 Lafayette Street, will officially open Nov. 6.
