We had such a wonderful experience dining here! From the moment we walked in, everyone made us feel genuinely welcomed and taken care of. Daniel was attentive and professional, making sure everything was perfect throughout our meal. Andres brought such a warm, positive energy that truly elevated our experience. Nicole was incredibly kind and thoughtful — you can tell she truly cares about the guests. It’s rare to find a team where everyone works together so seamlessly and treats you like more

We recently visited this small, family-owned Italian restaurant, and it was such a wonderful experience. The atmosphere felt warm and welcoming, just like dining in someone’s home. Their homemade pasta was absolutely excellent — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. They also make their own desserts, which were delicious and the perfect way to end the meal. You can really taste the care and tradition in everything they serve. The staff were attentive and friendly, making the whole evening even

There’s plenty of great restaurants in Little Italy but this is not one of them. The food took a long time and it was very disappointing. Slowest, not attentive service. Tap water had a bad taste. Dirty bathroom with no toilet paper. Mentioned the lack of toilet paper to the staff but it was still not changed 15 minutes later when my friend went. 18% service fee plus additional 1% credit card surcharge. Will not be back.

This is a very popular old school Italian restaurant in Whitestone. Pasta, potatoes, and veggies that each dinner comes with are all served in little side dishes like they did in the old days. One thing About this place I thought was odd, and I didn’t like was that you couldn’t get linguini or rigatoni as your side pasta. You had to pick either between spaghetti or penne. My husband and I split the pasta fagioli and my sister had the minestrone soup for our appetizers. WOW the pasta fagioli

From the moment I stepped in, I knew I was in for something special. The atmosphere was warm, charming, and full of life — it felt like a little slice of Italy! The food? Absolutely divine. Every bite was bursting with authentic flavor, from the rich sauces to the perfectly cooked pasta. But what truly made the night magical was the host — not only welcoming and kind, but he sang! His voice filled the room with joy and added such a personal, unforgettable touch to the evening. It felt like dinn

I had lots of expectations from a local NY pizzeria but i found the pizza just ok. I ordered a full pie. The operator just heated a prebaked pizza which was just warm while serving. The taste was also very blant. Ozone park seriously needs better pizza place.

This was seriously the best pasta I’ve ever had! Stepping off the plane and almost immediately to the restaurant, the owner was the first person we talked to in NYC. He made us feel right at home and was so kind and welcoming and made our experience even better! Per my adventurous self, I ordered the octopus and muscle linguine and enjoyed it thoroughly. My sister got the risotto, which was 10/10! My Mom ordered the owners recommendation, the duck pasta, and it was one of the best dishes I’ve ha

This is a fantastic restaurant. They helped me with my food intolerance and guided me in choosing the best dishes. First, they serve amazing warm bread with a sauce on the side and olives. Then I had the carpaccio with arugula and Grana Padano — it’s to die for! After that, I chose the branzino with vegetables. To finish, I had the chocolate lava cake without ice cream because I couldn’t eat it. The wine was an amazing Gavi di Gavi. Austin, the owner, is fantastic and super friendly. You must tr

This restaurant is the most wonderful!! Went on a late Wednesday night to celebrate my friends birthday, and it was the best experience. A small space with big love. The owner Esperanza is lovely and the greatest host. You are home at piccola strada!

Hands down the best meal I’ve had in years. Everything we ate was incredible — it was hard to identify any standouts. Mussels, chicken parm and chicken florentine special are spectacular. The hospitality is on another level. Already planning our next visit to Arturo’s.

small and cozy sit down italian establishment! good for small groups as there isn’t much seating. a solid spot for a date night or small group of friends! great 70s/80s music playing and staff here is very friendly.

Absolutely spectacular place! I am still dreaming about the Branzino we started with, it was an explosion of flavor! Every dish we received was flavorful, bright, and beautifully dished. The place definitely gets packed, but for good reason. The service was great as well and very attentive. Manolo This is a place I would purposely go back to New York to experience again. Cosimo. Great.chef thanks 🙏

Went here for my birthday on Friday, the atmosphere was amazing & so was the place itself. Definitely loved it. We did a fixe menu for being a 9 top, and I loved the prosciutto & Caesar salad, the cacio e pepe & steak did come out cold , even when my friends asked for it to be warmed it still was cold, which is weird for those 2 foods especially even if it’s busy. I definitely wouldn’t get the steak again personally or the pasta, but the other two items were good. Drinks were a 10/10. Our server

Everything about this meal was perfect! I was with a group of 5 and we were promptly seated in the back with a few other tables. Shortly after, the other tables emptied out and it was nice and quiet to talk with everyone at the table. The service was very attentive and caring for dietary restrictions. The tri color salad, caprese, fettuccine bolognese, pesto, and chocolate lava cake were all delicious. The atmosphere and flavors easily put this within my top 5 favorite Italian UES restaurants. C

Ora is such a cozy neighborhood spot. The vibe is warm and inviting, perfect for a relaxed dinner. The food was excellent — loved the beet salad, the sautéed portobello mushrooms were full of flavor, and the steak was cooked perfectly. Everything felt thoughtful and comforting. Definitely a place I’ll be coming back to.

Excellence, perfection, best-in-class. These are a few terms that come to mind when I think of Valbella at the Park. We’ve hosted numerous dinners, and multiple large scale private events (200+ people) in both their third-floor private space and their second-floor enclosed rooftop terrace. From their friendly staff, to their attentive service, incredible food and drinks, and beautiful atmosphere, they will make sure your special event is 11/10.

Love this organic wine bar! Came for the wine… stayed for the food. No wine list - just choose your “emotion” and “color” and a wonderful recommendation will be delivered to you. We started with prosciutto and sheep’s cheese. The grilled bread is incredible. We tried the lobster pasta and carbonara, and both were delicious. Erika and Andy amazing - will be back again soon to try the gnocchi!

Absolutely loved this place! The gelato was incredibly creamy, fresh, and full of flavor. Everything felt high quality — from the waffle cone to the texture of the gelato itself. Great service, relaxing vibe, and definitely a place I’d come back to again.

Do not eat here if you are a person of color because you will be treated as low class and not seen to have enough money to be eating there compared to the fellow old money upper east siders. From the second I stepped in with my family, I was looked at with judgment by one of the waiters. Food was tasty, however extremely disappointed by the service. For example, we ordered a bottle of wine that was not poured out for us (no big deal), but poured out for the other white families around us. Truly

I went here back on march 2nd, I heard of this place Via instagram. The sandwich was the best I ever had! The drunken cutlet was really fresh, the mozzarella was the best! The sauce was different from others I had, it was more sweet which I liked! The staff were really nice! A they were surprised I came all the way from Philly. If I’m ever craving a really good chicken parm, I’ll take the trip from Philly to here! I will be back!

Solid pizza shop. The pizza is big, I think a two to three person size. The pizzas have copious amounts of cheese as expected. The crust is a natural New York doughy crust. The vibe is very neighborhood, like this is the local pizza parlor in all the old movies. I recommend stopping by to say hi to the lovely couple and get a slice or two. Oh and do not forget the meatballs. They are much meatier than other places, I really enjoyed those meatballs.

Food was good but skimpy. The waiter wouldn't ask the chef what veggies were in the vegetable ravioli. They never came around to ask if we needed anything like more water or more bread. We were told they only had a Mother's Day menu, but another table was allowed to order from the regular menu. We had to catch the writer's eye to get coffee and the dessert list. The atmosphere was nice and the strolling accordion player was okay. Don't know if I'd eat there again.

A great addition to the Brooklyn bar scene! Bar Madonna offers so many elevated, delicious cocktails that it’s hard to choose. The Nonna’s Half & Half, Beet Bussdown, and Gemma’s Sauce are just a few of our favorites. And they were just ranked No. 36 bar in the world by 50 Best Bars!! So well deserved! A perfect spot for a cozy date night or fun outing with friends. Great service and a fun, lively environment.

Great bar but WARNING: I have loved this place a long time but I’m sadly obligated to leave this review because the bartender was out of his damn mind. In particular, we ordered gin martinis off the happy hour menu (great deal, $10!). When each cost $16 on the bill we inquired; he said that because we didn’t specifically order “dry martinis” that indeed these drinks were not eligible for happy hour. This is insane and is certainly wrong. I can’t for one second think that someone made a happy h

Food here is amazing and a true UES staple. It’s in a perfect location and the staff will always make you feel welcome. The quality of the food is spectacular. Sette Mezzo is one of the only restaurants in the city that is consistently delicious while offering great service. My favorite dishes are the linguini and clams (as seen in picture), the ravioli, and the risotto. Daily specials here are also available. My favorite desserts here are the cheesecake and the tartufo! You won’t regret coming

Liked the baked eggplant and other apps. Ordered the 30? day dry aged duck, and it was funky and chewy, whatever they tried to accomplish with the duck made it worst instead of enhancing it. The fine dining Italian place was packed, we were crammed into a booth for 1 person too many to dine comfortably. The main dining area is dimly lit, with curved corners trying to imitate a domed ceiling. Service was slow, we has to keep an eye out too often for waitee to get water refill, clear table for ent

Great new spot in bay ridge. Elegant setting and realistic prices. We went for Easter brunch and I was shocked that what had once been a tiny liquor store had a huge dining room and outdoor space with tables. Nice wine menu. Coffee was also great! We will be back.

Vinile Chophouse is the sister restaurant to nearby Vinyl Steakhouse and is equally excellent. The vibe is elevated and stylish, yet still warm and inviting. The hospitality truly stands out. The staff is attentive without being overbearing, genuinely friendly, and clearly knowledgeable about the food and drink menus. Our waitress and sommelier, Kiera, was wonderful and added a personal touch to the experience. Food-wise, everything felt thoughtfully prepared and well-executed. The crab came a

Authentic Italian cuisine with outstanding service. The atmosphere was elegant and perfect for adults. The food was served very quickly after we ordered. The fresh pasta had a great texture and was absolutely delicious.

Some places you discover… others seem to find you at the right moment. After living in this area for over five years, I had no idea Fumo existed—and now it almost feels unreal that I hadn’t been here before. I came with my brother for a casual lunch to talk business. He had visited the day before and insisted I check it out. Now I completely understand why. I ordered the carbonara with added chicken, and it was flawless. Creamy, rich, and perfectly balanced—one of those dishes that speaks for

Caught dinner here recently, we were able to be seated promptly without a reservation. We did go soon after they opened to that is likely why. With the nice weather we were able to get a seat outside, I enjoyed looking around my neighborhood and people watching; the inside seating looked really nice as well. The service was overall good, our hostess was very nice and helped get the outside table set up, our server was also very kind. I got the Rigatoni and thought it was just alright, there are

I invited my wife here for her birthday. I haven’t been in a NY restaurant for over two years. I didn’t know what to expect. For my surprise, this restaurant is inside a Marriott Hotel, and it was a very nice experience. The attention was nice and professional. The place was clean, peaceful and welcoming. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. I enjoyed everything. The atmosphere is nice. At the time we visited, there were not many people there. It was early. Even the restroom was s

I am SO shocked at just how incredible my meal at Fossetta was! This spot is tiny and unassuming but had some of the best food and drinks I’ve had. The Ida’s Cure cocktail is basically a strawberry lemon drop martini and is a must-order. To eat, they have a great selection of Focaccias to try - the classic olive oil & sea salt and the ricotta & hot honey are both fabulous with very different flavor profiles. I believe their menu is updated and it NEEDS to stay as is, because their pastas were to

We joined our cousin Todd Stein (who is running for district leader), he recommended Amata....excellent service & the food was impeccable 👌! We were served promptly and catered to every minute during our visit. Gnocchi with pesto, lobster 🦞 tortellini with vodka sauce, Wow! Baked calms, fried Calamari, steak cooked perfectly, and much more. Parked right out front. Not rushed at all. Pleasantly greeted and overseen throughout the evening by owner Christopher. Ambiance & atomosphere was perfect

Found this place coincidentally but the food was delicious! Staff were very friendly and the pizza was delicious and super reasonably priced. Not much seating so it’s probably best to order to go!

Gnocchi, much of which has been premade and is reheated, served for around $10 in a takeout container and a variety of sauces. A very fast, low-cost, and convenient food option. I really enjoyed the Alla Vodka, and the Al Pesto was decent.

Good Italian restaurant inside Time Out Market. It was packed the day we went (a Sunday during the Christmas season), but we managed to snag a small table here. We really liked that you can order and pay through their app (I assume it’s the same for all restaurants in Time Out). Our food didn't take long to arrive; we ordered two pasta dishes and they were honestly very tasty. Prices are reasonable considering the location.

Super cute cafe with imported Italian goods! I didn't see many of my favorite Italian wines for purchase, but their home goods section in the very back was wonderful! Amazing tea selection. Did not have any food, but there were options. Big fan of the overall aesthetics 💯

3.5 stars for me. Food was average, but drinks and espresso were good. Also service and atmosphere was v good. Mushroom carpaccio was good and creative. We also got the large fritto misto and it was very normal. The batter wasn’t that crispy tbh. The shrimp in there was tender though. Lemon tagliolini was fresh pasta but I didn’t really like the cheese that was in it, it just didn’t go well with the sea beans. Linguini alle vongole was very bland, boxed pasta (I would expect boxed pasta for t

A fantastic restaurant with an equally fantastic owner and staff. The food is outstanding, and the atmosphere offers a truly cozy dining experience. Their specials are so good they’re hard to choose from. When I ordered the veal parm and the owner nodded in approval, I knew I made the right call. My wife had the butternut squash ravioli and absolutely loved it. A 12/10 experience.

I wrote a feature about this place a year and a half ago for the Park Slope reader but I came back for dinner this evening to try out their May Izakaya menu. I felt compelled to write another review on here because they clearly deserve the praise. I’m just so impressed with the attention to detail and the consistency. The food here is always really unique. They call themselves an unusual Italian restaurant, but that’s the understatement of the century. Everything on the menu is always so uniqu

Amazing experience. The food was amazing. Unassuming little Italian restaurant tucked in the heart of the neighborhood. True Italian experience once you get inside. We would love to go back. Hand made paste was amazing, the desserts were some of the best we have ever tried. Definitely recommended.

I visited a cute new Italian restaurant in Hell’s Kitchen. Every dish was delicious. The appetizer special of the day—a cheesecake-like dish—had a rich, complex flavor unlike anything I’ve ever tasted, and it truly impressed me (it’s a shame I forgot to take a photo). The eggplant appetizer was also incredibly creative and outstanding. The cutlet and carbonara were light and not heavy at all—I felt like I could keep eating them endlessly. Even the desserts were perfect, and the kind, attentive s

What an incredible impromptu experience – I was out late and hungry and I wanted to indulge my Italian side before my grandmother is buried in Queens tomorrow. I had to come to Astoria and found this place. Highly recommend you spend an evening here the owner was here to greet me, talked to me about the specials and I asked him to make whatever he wanted. He gave me ravioli in carbonara sauce, eggplant, Pomodoro, and garlic bread and Pellegrino with lemon. He sat down next to me, talked to me, t

Such a spectacular hidden gem of a restaurant! Service was impeccable, servers and waiters were always there to take plates and refill drinks, I was thoroughly impressed. The food was extremely delicious, I got the salmon which was cooked perfectly and placed over an incredible light mustard sauce. The chicken and veggie plate were great too! The restaurant served many complimentary small plates, which was greatly appreciated, that included a bread basket, mini charcuterie, green beans, carrots,

This place is a true gem in Queens, I came in for a quick lunch because I was hungry and craving some pasta, and I came just in time for their lunch special, less than $10 for some pasta?? Insane deal you simply can’t beat , I also added some chicken cutlet with my penne allá vodka, the sauce was delicious and the chicken was perfectly cooked. I know this is random but their bread?? So fresh and perfect, flakey soft. Absolute gem of a place, the quality of the food mixed with the great prices is

I went for a date night with my partner and had a great experience. The restaurant has a great vibe and we're big fans of Neapolitan pizza. The food was fresh and the service was fast. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a nice date spot with great food.

Food i ordered was phenomenal! Not the usual Italian and yet it is. The pizza I ordered was excellent. Thin and crust is light and cooked in gas fired oven from Sicily!! So the kind that I personally love. The sauce of my anchovy pizza was delicious with cut tiny tomatoes!! I love the octopus carpaccio. It is a big plate. Truly delicious and seems cooked to me. Their specialty pizza was good too with stracciatella pistachio and mortadella And we tried their dessert - with a slice of can

Server charged my card extra and lied and said it was a couple of “fees” added to it why my $60 meal turned out to be $94 charged first and didn’t bring bill, didn’t want to show receipt once I realized what was going on. CALLED the next morning in regards to speaking to the owner still additional run around and I’m not able to talk to the owner.
