One of our favorite spots when we lived in NYC. The Italian food is amazing, and the owner Arsino and staff always do a great job making sure everything is just right. They were always wonderful with our children too. Very extensive menu with meat, fish, and pasta dinners. During the busy season, be prepared to wait a bit for a table, but it’s well worth it. Wholeheartedly recommend.

We did delivery. The food was prepared and sent quickly. The food itself? Underwhelmed to say the least. Little to no food, and it was bland. Chicken picatta should have a nice lemon hint to it. The sauce tasted like flour. I’d be embarrassed serving this to a customer.

We’ve been wanting to try this place and finally did! Pasta was tasty and seafood were cooked perfect.
There were some tout groups at the restaurant.

Best Italian food we had in our one week stay in New York. This location is authentic and charming. We are lucky that the pizza place down the street had a line an hour long. This was the better choice for us. Great choices on the menu, and everything was delicious. Don’t miss out on the experience. We ate with a few other locals who seem to visit often. Service is outstanding!

On a busy Bleecker Street, in the heart of West Village, I walked into this typical Italian trattoria which serves exelent seafood, pasta and fresh salads. No reservations were needed.

The restaurant has an old italian feel and look, you must need reservations 4 sure, lots of specials mine was lobster. Linguine with clams. A good proportion of clams and the lobster was very tender and soft., it took us 4to 5 times to ask for bread. They’re super busy but still,,,, the calmra we’re decent, really didn’t care for those overall, the restaurant is very beautiful very cozy and small and , LOUD

A true old-school Italian restaurant with outstanding food. Large portions, very reasonable prices, and everything tastes homemade and authentic. The service is friendly and attentive, and the overall vibe is warm and welcoming. Hard to find places like this anymore. Highly recommend!

Loved this old school family styled space. Felt like I was back in Italy. The lemon sorbet was the best! The staff was kind enough to make a me fettuccine pasta that wasn’t on the menu. Highly recommend this place for authentic Italian 🙂

Lovely and hearty Italian fare—especially their pasta and seafood dishes. The lobster ravioli stands out with a rich, flavorful sauce, and the seafood risotto is tomato-based, brimming with fresh shrimp, calamari, and scallops  . The mussels marinara delivers bold, authentic flavors—just enough sauce to dip bread without overpowering . Portions are generous and comforting, true to classic Northern Italian style
