The food that I had here was just ok. The beef carpaccio was not good at all. The arugula to beef ratio was way off and it was served with this disgusting sauce that ruined the whole dish. Made it taste all sour. The bucatini was alright but it was rather ordinary. Nothing special there at all. The highlight of the meal was dessert — I highly recommend the flourless chocolate cake. It was sweet and flavorful.

A charming old-style Italian restaurant with a nice atmosphere but uneven execution. The cappuccino was excellent, rich and perfectly made, easily the highlight of the meal. The rest of the food was just fine. The bread didn’t seem fresh, though the olive oil was high quality. The beef was tender but overly salty, which made it hard to enjoy.

The service felt detached. Our waiter seemed in a hurry and never quite connected with us, though he became much friendlier when it was time for the check. The place itself has a lot of character with its brick walls, framed photos, and cozy layout, but small details held the experience back.

It’s not a bad spot, just one that could be great with a little more care in both the food and the service.

Their chicken parm used to be good and well worth it. Not anymore. $38 for a paper thin chicken cutlet with a small side of pasta. Highway robbery.

My family and I entered after the 2025 New York City Marathon. Even though it was a busy night, we waited about 15 minutes. The waiter gave me a great suggestion that was perfect. My photo isn’t very good because I shared my dish with my sister, but everything was delicious. I ordered the pasta the waiter recommended, and my sister had that tasty lasagna.

When others say a restaurant is a 5 star usually consider it to be a matter of personal taste but this one……this restaurant tops all the other Italian eatery’s I’ve been!
The lasagna was tremendous!
The shrimp bisque was tremendous!
The simple fettuccini sans anything was tremendous!
The penne alla vodka was tremendous!
Carmen at the door was tremendous!
Our waiter whose name I didn’t catch was tremendous!
The flourless chocolate cake was sublime!
Thank you for this experience for our galantines trip.
I’m gonna go grab my husband and fly back to NYC just to come to dinner here!

We ordered bucatini all’amatriciana and fettuccine bolognese. As an Italian, I can say this is not an authentic Italian restaurant. The quality of the food was low and it was hard to digest for hours afterward. The service was kind, and the place is cozy.

We had lunch at this cozy restaurant. Our waiter Amar was great and he replaced meat with eggplant for my panini order when i told him i want a vegetarian option. We also
ordered a Cesar salad and Scampi oreganata and everything was delicious!!

Came in for lunch with my mother and had a wonderful time. The inside is cozy, like you’re in an Italian grandma’s living room. The music was aromatic and set the mood beautifully. The food was absolutely delicious, I had the prefix lunch deal ($35) that came with a glass of wine, an appetizer and an entree. i got the John Dory fish which is amazing. Me and my mother sat on the side at a two person table where we were able to watch the people and the street. It was beautiful. Would definitely come back and recommend others to come here.

This restaurant is a must!!! Absolutely incredible!!!! Food was incredible!! This is by far the best Italian food in the state of NY!
What an incredible experience we had! As well…Daniel is just a joy. My sister and I took my mom to the opera for the first time to see Andrea buccelli and what an incredible night. Not only the opera but at the restaurant before hand too. Daniel was such a sweetie man. He made us laugh many times and made the experience for my mama, so special! Thank you Daniel for a beautiful dinner and experience!

This restaurant has excellent food and is great for people watching. I ordered a bottle of wine and drank about half and got to bring the rest back to my hotel. The endive salad was really amazing with the avocado and parmesan, and the fettuccine was perfectly cooked and delicious. I had dinner by myself and felt really comfortable the whole time I was there.
