The Penne alla Vodka pasta is Highly recommended!
We just got surprised by the gratuity which is very high
When she greeted us, we could clearly sense a cold expression on her face, lacking any enthusiasm. It felt as if we owed her money. There was no service at all during our meal. The shellfish were left on empty plates, and she didn’t even come up to replace them. We saw her standing at the cashier, playing with her phone. Most infuriating was the fact that when we paid, she pointed a finger at the tip section of the bill, pointing to three different percentages: 18%, 20%, and so on. This is truly insulting! She didn’t provide any relevant service, yet was only interested in collecting tips. We were extremely dissatisfied with this kind of service! However, we still generously tipped in cash according to the indicated amount, and even then, we didn’t even get a thank you!
The pasta was poorly prepared. The shellfish had only a peppery, spicy flavor, and the seafood flavor of the shellfish was missing. The tomato and basil pasta was unpalatable and I left it unfinished. The strong tomato flavor completely overwhelmed the basil, making the flavor completely indistinguishable. The vegetable salad was much better than either pasta dish!
Is this normal in NY? I understand there is a tipping culture there, but not to even acknowledge your custom is just plain rude in my eyes. Politeness costs nothing.
The decor is classy, with exposed brick walls, classic furniture, and vintage photos of Marlon Brando and his contemporaries, giving the restaurant a nice, spacious, and stylish atmosphere. Highly recommended for anyone who loves authentic New York pizza!
We picked up two large pies from Patsy’s in July 2025 – one white pie and one with 3 extra toppings of roasted peppers, onions, and olives. The topped pie was excellent, with toppings covering the entire pie, being plentiful and flavorful. The white pie, however, barely had any mozzarella/ricotta which didn’t even cover it in full. The “fine herbs” stated in the menu were just a few baked basil leaves on top. At $26 Manhattan price tag it was quite disappointing.
Crust was thin as expected from other reviews but lacked crunch.
Would be interesting to sample more dishes to better assess overall food quality, but I’ll leave that to other reviewers. 4 stars for now and neutral on whether I’d recommend.
Service was okay, food assortment was acceptable, not ample though.
Prices were on the mid 20’s for your typical plate of spaghetti.
Something which seamed outrageous was the 20% mandatory tip. That was awful
We ordered meatballs and mozzarella sticks as appetizers, and they were fantastic. The meatballs, served with marinara sauce and topped with melted mozzarella cheese, were outstanding. My favorite, however, was the mozzarella sticks. They had a perfectly soft, crispy crust and melted beautifully when you picked them up. Each order came with three sticks, which was just right for us to share. I regret not ordering more!
For our main course, we chose the Margherita pizza with pepperoni and prosciutto. I could only eat one slice because my kids devoured three slices each before I finished my first. The pizza was generously topped with pepperoni and prosciutto. If I had a way to warm it up, I would have loved to take a whole pizza home.
As for dessert, we couldn’t make up our minds, so we ordered both the limoncello cake and New York cheesecake. Both were excellent! The limoncello cake was soft and spongy, while the New York cheesecake was simply perfect.
I would definitely be visiting again when I return to NY.
Mentioned it to a waiter and he brought a stack of napkins. Mentioned that the area probably needed to be sanitized better and he looked confused. Mentioned it to the hosts at the front and they just said “okay thanks for letting us know”.
With that said, the Margherita was very enjoyable and a good tasting pizza.
If I’m in the area, I would stop by again.
