West Village hotspot Bar Pitti serves up plump portions of veal meatballs, but they scrimp when it comes to paying employees, a federal lawsuit charges.

The Sixth Avenue eatery is “billed as one of New York City’s top Italian restaurants and a magnet for celebrities … yet despite their widely publicized success, defendants abuse their wait staff,” the class-action suit says.

Nichias Turban, a server who left the restaurant in October after eight years, dishes that he regularly worked “62 or more hours” each week, but was paid below minimum wage and received no overtime.

While serving boldfaced names like Jake Gyllenhaal, Heidi Klum, Beyoncé and Jay-Z, waiters were forced to share their tips with management, the complaint alleges.

The Manhattan federal court suit claims Bar Pitti violated federal and state labor laws.

“The location is incredible, the food is good. It’s depressing that a place that is making a fortune can’t share some of their bounty with the wait staff simply by paying them what they are legally owed,” Turban’s attorney, Maimon Kirschenbaum told The Post.

The suit names Bar Giacosa Corp. and owner Giovanni Tognozzi as defendants. Tognozzi did not return messages.
