Natasha MoriniNovember 30, 2014Intimate for lover along with good for groups. You get the best of both a worlds and also an amazing staff. Went for a birthday and never felt like we were forgotten or a bother. Great Italian food!
Dov Lebowitz-NowakSeptember 12, 2012Super friendly, homestyle experience. These guys are awesome - and if you're there late on a slow night (and you're really nice), they just keep bringing more Limencello shots!
Cece LJune 7, 2013The sangria is good but weak, so I would recommend just getting beer for HH. The bartender is very nice;id give him 5 stars and the atmosphere 4.5 stars.Would definitely come back sometime for dinner!
Nicolette RomeroNovember 2, 2014Inexpensive spot tucked away on a side street. Their bread is pretty amazing and they have good size portions. The carbonara and lasagna were both very good. Don't forget, it's cash only.- Stefano GuidolinMay 7, 2014When I enter this place I feel like I'm back in Italy, this could well be a restaurant in Rome! Love the atmosphere and the food is good too!!
- Nate BeattyOctober 19, 2015The tuna over cannelloni beans was amazing. Great cocktails and the staff and owners couldn't be more friendly and accommodating. This is such a local gem.
Ina LiMay 1, 2015Good wine, simple food and homie atmosphere. Feels like back in Italy again! Their bread is really delicious
James Ryan SloanApril 6, 2011The two best dishes they have is gorgonzola gnocchi and lobster ravioli with caviar. Two of the best meals you ever have. For starters, get the bruscetta with pancetta, goat cheese and asparagus.
Laura GinsbergMay 6, 2018Rigatoni del pirata, umbra bruschetta, burrata, and meatballs were delicious! The food was tasty and prices were extremely reasonable.
VJanuary 12, 2018I can’t stop coming back for the lobster ravioli!!! Place is friendly, cozy and never a long wait, one of my favorites.
Elizabeth LeeOctober 24, 2016Very lovely service by our hostess and the food didn't disappoint. The gnocchi and lobster ravioli were simply delicious.
KristiaMarie Pastor BalatbatFebruary 24, 2015Appetizer with 3 different types of bruschetta -- all were great! Lobster ravioli and grilled squid are yummy!
Amar LAKELJune 6, 2015Have you asking where is paradise ? Just here. In NY. Ask the balcony table for 2.
Georgios AthanassiadisNovember 21, 2012Great place and got a 50% off deal through 4sq! They were out of both chicken and steak (what!?) but the pasta pesto was delish and the sangria is liquid gold!
E DSeptember 7, 2019The burrata, tomato bruschetta and mushroom bruschetta, and amatriciana were all fantastic!
CrowdscoreOctober 1, 2011Some of the most authentic Italian cuisine in the city. The downstairs is great for groups. Be sure to make friends with your waiter for a Limoncello ending to your meal.
Tony CoutoApril 8, 2014Great food awesome service and fine decor, be aware cash only, no plastic accepted.
Ralph WhiteNovember 23, 2013Cash-only. I was there early and there was only two staff on the floor. Surprisingly quick, actually. I had a sliced-tuna salad that was great.
Anna DzhenkovaApril 10, 2015Cozy place with a nice atmosphere. Perfect for dates and hanging out with friends.- Always a great idea to order something from the special menu!
- Kate FurmanJanuary 4, 2016$16 lunch special for a coffee, bruschetta, and a pasta entree. Solid place to carb load.
César CedanoMarch 21, 2014The carbonara and drinks are very good. The waiters can be a little pushy if you sit near the bar.- Tony CoutoJune 22, 2014Awesome Italian food, great service and family ambience. I will be back when ever possible.
Stephanie MAugust 28, 2012Everything on this menu is fresh and amazingly delicious! Also, it's a very cute date spot!
Helen BennettJuly 10, 2013Daily happy hour 4p-7p with $6 wine and sangria. Have to be getting food for a patio spot.
Alex HandlerAugust 26, 2015Don't sit at the table by the door. Both guests and wait staff don't really care if the door slams in your face every couple of seconds while people go in and out.
Giovanni Bartocci the foundation of this great little eatery / just say "Forza Lazio" as you come in
Great bartender. Awesome food. Great prices. Cash only (atm in back). Cozy atmosphere.
Decent $10 brunch in the East Village. Includes Americano coffee or tea. Can't beat that price.
Blake PattersonMay 31, 2010This is a wonderful little Italian place. I ordered the gnocchi and was not disappointed. The antipasto (MEAT PLATE!!!) is super, as well. Read more
AlexisMay 19, 2010Order the homemade fettucini with pomodoro sauce. Not on the menu, but it is fantastic. If they give you a hard time, just say you've gotten it before.
Kristine CJune 13, 2011Just spent 6 months in italy and this place has a pretty authentic menu, delicious food!
