    Can't get much better than this quintessential upscale Italian restaurant. The wine is superb, the appetizers are good, and try the clam linguine!

    My favorite neighborhood spot. I don't understand why it's not crowded ALL THE TIME! Hint: order Cacio e Pepe with Bucatini instead of spaghetti. Life changed. You're welcome. 🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻

    Homemade pastas are the best. Great neighborhood spot for fun atmosphere and casual dining. Wine list is full of top notch choices to pair with dinner - especially pasta dishes.

    Good Gnoochi, salads are sub par, Calamari is amazing. No matter what time you're there or how busy it is, the service is slooooowwww. House wine is $8, and it's a good Montepulciano .

    Consistently delicious & fresh Italian, plus the most beautiful marble bar! Portions are sort of small & service can be very slow, but the food makes me return regardless!

    Everything was delicious and the waiter was really attentive. Primi pasta portions were small as they should be. Order an entree! :) Overall, dining at Bevacco was a great experience.

    I had a gret time here! The waitress was very friendly and sweet, giving us some options and tips about the menu. Try the Gamberi Gnochii and Costeleta con Polenta. Delicious!

    I loved the octopus and the pizza was pretty good. Service was good, we had a bad bottle of wine and they were understanding and apologetic.

    Really beautiful inside at dusk, as the dimmed lights reflect in the restaurant's many mirrors. Turning the music up just a touch might make it more romantic.

    Kale salad (dressing is unreal!!) and spinach pizza. Friendly bartender. Solid neighborhood spot

    Great local spot in bk heights. Try the barbera, bread is delish, food is all around solid. Our local spot.

    Delicious. Great wines. Excellent pasta. Some of the friendliest service in all of Brooklyn. (Shouldn't have '$$$$' - prices are totally reasonable.)

    Molten lava cake was a saggy, soggy brown puck of goo. Side of vanilla gelato tasted like Breyer’s and came in a plastic ketchup cup. Clientele made me bored to tears— GET A LIFE

    I love the Farro and Zucchini and the pesto pizza. I just needs more olives, which gives it the kick.

    Tiramisu for dessert, bucatini aglio e olio, and the pomodoro. For the app get the pear torta. Amazing.

    Great food. Stellar service. Good for groups, as it's big, and often less-busy than its neighbors. Go.

    The egg yolk Tatar is simply to die for, but it's best paired with the fish tongue pâté.

    Tile floors, patina-frosted mirrors, and twinkling lights adorn this old world-style haven for handmade pastas and late night desserts.

    Very nice brunch here. Their "burger" uses bread instead of buns. Like it a lot.

    Order a Chocolate Jubilee at the bar: Cafe Patron, chocolate and coffee. It's my new favorite drink.

    Great cappuccino, excellent pasta specials although modest portions., fried calamari very popular for good reason

    Food is inconsistent. My advice would be to stick to the fresh made pasta and saddle up to the bar for a glass of wine. If Marsh is tending bar, all I can say is trust him.

    I used to go here like 4 times a week after work for months. Recently the guy had the nerve of telling me there is a $10 minimum when my bill was $9.80. He made me get cash. Never going again.

    Not worth it: it's just decent but not even close to being a place I'd suggest. One of the most meaningless brunches I've ever had in NYC. Plus it's a bit pricey for what you get.

    A beautiful space, I can't wait to see what it is next because Bevacco is awful. Waited 40 min. for pasta in a nearly empty place. Big mistake, much better options up & down the block. Be warned.

    I tend to come here quite a bit bc I live in the area. I always order the cheapest pasta and a glass of wine and it's good. It's really the only place I'll eat in my neighborhood ha

    Awful bottle of wine, nice service. Food just OK. Really overpriced for what is on offer. A shame. Won't be going back.
