Some of the best, mindblowing-ly simple, Italian food in this city.

One of the best meals you'll have in nyc. Worth the wait/hype. I like it best with 2-3 friends, that way you can try a bunch of things. If the mezzaluna pasta is on the menu - get it! Rigatoni is 👌🏼
Carlo MorettiAugust 6, 2017
home made pasta and roasted eggplant rocks
Joe RizkJuly 14, 2022

Try the little fried fish! Everything we had was outstanding.
Prins PoloAugust 6, 2022
Appetizers and pasta dishes disappointing. Didn’t hit the spot, unlike its sister resto Misi.
NathanMarch 4, 2016
Love the vibe, service, and drinks. The food left a bit to be desired though.
Cole KennedyAugust 24, 2018
It is everything you hoped it would be and more. There was a special appetizer focaccia with tomatoes that melted my brain, so trust the specials. The sheep’s milk agnolotti entrée was divine too.

Truly Amazing and Magical. A special place.
No Leftovers Jackie GebelJanuary 11, 2017
Pastas, ambiance, anything with cheese is incredible
Holistic DentalMarch 2, 2016
Great!!! Each and every items are available in Menu
Danny NathanSeptember 5, 2016
Super sceney. The food was good but the service wasn't quite on par. The hostesses were full of attitude; the wait staff was friendly but managed that odd balance of inattentive yet always there.

The rigatoni is an absolute standout but everything else here is also 👌🏾
Utku UralNovember 3, 2019
The service was excellent, the decor is spot on, but the food just totally missed the mark. Over salted and overpriced across the board. I wanted to love the meal but I just couldn’t.
MartinNovember 9, 2016
