For a reliably excellent and cheap date night, Fiat Cafe always hits the spot. All of the pastas are outstanding and the wine bottles only cost around $20 each. Read about it on WinstonWanders below!! Read more
- Little but very cosy restaurant for excellent breakfast, a lot of choice, nice background music, friendly staff who speaks several languages. We had breakfast the whole week overhere.
Food tastes like dinner at a friend's. Not your mom's but your friend's mom's cooking. I adore it here. So quaint & perfect in every way. Spinach omelet w goat cheese is phenomenal. + toast and bacon.- Nate BeattyNovember 8, 2015Panini with the vegetables and pesto is fantastic. Tons of flavor, delicious, filling, not too much. Vibe is cute without being inauthentic. I really want to come back for brunch, looks incredible
Lou CapezzaMay 18, 2013Everything is delicious! Save room for dessert too the Tiramisu is the best I've had in a long time and the Cappuccino was so good it was difficult to put down.

Seb LyonnaisNovember 27, 2013I started my meal at Fiat with an order of penne, and it was great! Fortunately for me, there was a large menu so I followed that up with a chicken sandwich, which is one of the best in NYC! GO NOW
