Sandros was recommended to us by the owner of a small vineyard in Frascati outside Rome.
Run, don’t walk. This was the most delicious and authentic Italian meal I’ve had since being back from Italy. Cannot wait to come back to try more dishes!
We shared the Burrata appetizer, it was perfect. The roasted peppers were delicious and sweet. The balsamic they put on the table was the best I’ve ever had.
Then we had the real Milanese and lemon pasta – both were the best versions of each I’ve ever had.
Will be back as soon as possible!

Cute and homey restaurant. Went early. Absolutely fabulous pasta dishes. Cooked properly and very flavorful. The special lasagna bolognese was really amazing and loved the limone and vongole! The only disappointment was the pollo bolognese. Was really more of a chicken parmagiana so our friend was a bit disappointed. The verdure alla piastra was lacking. Very much enjoyed the coniglio as well. Lovely dish. Overall a bit pricey. Wine list had a nice selection (missing a few bottles), but pricey overall (as is generally). Would have been helpful to have the owner come to the table to make some suggestions as the server wasn’t too well versed in the wines. Otherwise, very good. We would enjoy returning!

We came here on a Sunday evening close to closing and they were very sweet and happy to seat us.
Ambiance: The bar area is really nice. They have done a great job with table set up as well and I love the colored water glasses. Sandro’s is great for big groups, small groups and dates.
Service: everyone was very friendly. Our waiter was very helpful on giving us suggestions on what to order based on our preferences. He also gave us advice on whether certain modifications would work with our meal choices.
Food: They started us off with complimentary bread and bruschetta. The bruschetta was really yummy. A classic and simple take on bruschetta which was perfectly seasoned. The bread was also nice and soft. As our entree, I got their vodka sauce with house made fettuccini. The pasta felt perfectly cooked and I really enjoyed the sauce with it. The spaghetti pomodoro was also on point. It had the right amount of pasta or sauce ratio and the sauce was really flavorful.
Price: we got 4 entrees and 2 glasses of wine and our meal came out to about $50/person.

Incredible Italian food!! Homemade pasta was divine. Service was impeccable.
I’d recommend dressing nicely (not a casual vibe)

A fine dining NYC chef recommended this spot to me, so when I was in the area for a holiday party, I decided to stop by for dinner with some friends.
Now I have to wonder how high that chef was. This was one of the worst Italian meals I’ve ever had in the city–which is saying something because this city is full of bland, terrible Italian restaurants.
The complimentary lentil soup we began with was probably the only thing I really liked. I should’ve just stuck with a big bowl of that. Instead, we decided to order a few dishes to share: the Bucatini Amatriciana (overcooked), the Spaghetti Con Vongole (watery and bitter), the Fettucine with White Veal Ragu (decent), and the Gamberi Alla Marinara (not spicy in the least, despite the menu warning otherwise).
I do appreciate the complimentary lemon cookies at the end, but I wouldn’t venture back here even if all of NYC’s Michelin-starred chefs proclaimed it their favorite restaurant. Maybe my palate isn’t refined enough? Oh well.

Great service and authentic Italian food.
When we were seated, they immediately brought out bruschetta, bread, and breadsticks, a thoughtful touch. The salad, cacio e pepe, and wine were all excellent. To top it off, we were brought a warm cookie before heading out. 10/10 recommend.

Food was absolute Italian perfection. I ate the cacio e Pepe because of the reviews. I don’t even really enjoy pasta like this but I reeeeeally had to hold back from shoveling this entire plate into my face. I took the little I had left on my plate and I ate it for breakfast the next day lol
Service was so relaxed. They let us take our time, kept an eye on our table when we flagged them and everything was great.
The crowd at 86 street was mixed! Young, old, couples, friends and families. I think 81 st may have gotten an older crowd but this was crowd was diverse which was nice.
The decor was kind of lacking but if anything is going to come up short, I prefer to be this part.
Loved Sandro’s and highly recommend this neighborhood gem!

We happened upon Sandro’s after walking around the city. We found the food to be fantastic and the service just beyond! Our lunches were delicious, with perfectly dressed salads and wonderful pasta dishes. The waiter and hostess both took care of our every request and created such a lovely and relaxing atmosphere. I am visiting from out of state, but when I return, I will be sure to come back to Sandro’s!

We had a great lunch here! The veal flank was meaty and juicy. We also ordered the apple cake with ice cream for dessert, which made my day.

Unfortunately the TikTok craze is not always right,
we found this place online and flew in like a kite.
The food was not worth the hype after the first bite,
But I do think they have a future that can be bright.
The service is excellent, not complaining in that front,
And I will not prevent you from going, believe me or not.
Apologies if I’m being too blunt,
But if you are wanting italian get back on the hunt.
The food is average, don’t mean to be cruel
but the price is what will make you feel like a fool.
Much more pricey than expected, not cool.
But I guess in the Upper East is the rule.
