Susan J CampbellSeptember 17, 2018Great family restaurant—hopping at 6p on a Sun. Gluten free or whole wheat pasta! My mushroom pasta was excellent and the guinea fowl main was delicious. Great place!
JD MaloneOctober 5, 2014Loved the lobster raviolli! Crowd tends to be in the late 20s- late 30's group so if you are younger than that age group you may feel out of place.- Susan J CampbellMarch 11, 2019Good food. Great location before a Guggenheim theatre event. Super squished tables if you’re a couple. Friendly neighborhood vibe
Leo SumulongJanuary 19, 2015Good selection of pasta dishes from different regions of Italy. The veal and truffle agnolotti is delicious.
Tash ConcepcionSeptember 5, 2015Mozzarella appetizer was phenomenal. A must try. Duck ragu pasta was also excellent. Perfect portions.
Christine AlvarezNovember 30, 2013The lobster ravioli is divine.. Pair it with the Malbec from Argentina and you're set.- The mozzarella appetizer salad is the best you'll ever have.
- Scott HamulaApril 28, 2013Rigatoni with spicy Italian sausage and Puccini mushrooms, and lemon tart for dessert. Wonderful!
Thaís MolinaFebruary 16, 2014Very good pasta, but the 'special free dessert' it's apparently not valid anymore.
Bitches Who BrunchOctober 15, 2015The Bitches say: A-. We adored the ambiance, stellar service, and home-cooked Italian at this neighborhood establishment. Perfect for brunch with your family or a get together with girlfriends. Read more
- It's a good restaurant... but it's really busy. I think it's overpriced for what it is.

"The architecture is awesome, and the exhibits are fascinating. Visited in March 1998, when Art Honor Society @ WHS had their field trip. It was the perfect day, especially for me when I was just 15!"

"Love my park. I've been taking 6 mile walks around Central Park 3 times a week. Sheep's Meadow is a great place to hang out for a picnic. Tavern on the Green is an awesome spot to grab a drink."
