The Italian restaurant in New York was pretty good overall. The food was tasty, and the service was good and friendly. However, the atmosphere could have been better because it was a bit noisy since the restaurant is located right next to the road. The restrooms were downstairs and did not feel very comfortable or modern. Also, the orange juice had a little too much ice in it. Overall, it was still a nice experience and a decent place to visit.

Came here for a date night with my hubby! And it was definitely worth it. The calamari appetizer is a must get! One of the best Caesar salads I’ve had— very flavorful & cheesy! We ordered chicken parmigiana & linguini vongole. Both were delicious & not too heavy. The staff was very positive, welcoming, and made our experience great! I highly recommend this spot & will definitely be back!

Freaking amazing. Imagine Benihana with pasta and at a good price. You get a show and a delicious plate of pasta. My wife who doesn't even like pasta enjoyed it. Also not sure why didn't this place come up when I searched for Italian food while seated across the street in the park. But if you are reading this, it is worth a visit.

I have been a regular here for more than 14 years, and it is truly an amazing place! The food is consistently tasty, and the wine list is very reasonably priced. We always order the vongole; in our opinion, no other restaurant can top theirs

From the street greeting to the comparable bill, this was the BEST experience! Sofia’s is the place to go if you want friendly service with a how-can-we-please-you attitude to the ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS food! Our next visit to Little Italy will definitely be on the list. 🙂 We even asked about some modifications that they were incredibly accommodating for! Highly recommend! (Bread was complimentary.)

I found out about this place from Pinterest. I'm glad I gave it chance. The inside is clean & esthetically pleasing. The employes were attentive & kind. I ordered the fettuccine bolognese $16. I purchased sprakling water afterwards, $20 total. I was trying to decide whether or not I wanted to buy their lemonade, the cashier guy offered a sample, that was very kind of him. It was a bit too sweet for me, I ended up getting the S. Water. The pasta was so tasty,  creamy & flavorful 😋 I arrived on a

Great Classic Italian food with great service and atmosphere. Love their Baked clams, fried calamari, stuffed mushrooms, mussels , veal chops, chicken parm and others. Can never go wrong with their food. Can get crowded at evenings so a reservation is always recommended for the evenings. Also their valet parking lot is a heaven sent cause parking in that neighborhood is a nightmare.

The food was absolutely delicious and beautifully prepared. The restaurant has a wonderful ambiance that makes the whole experience very pleasant and relaxing. The service was excellent — very friendly, attentive, and professional. Overall, it was a great dining experience, and I would definitely recommend this place.

Marco is a fantastic chef. Bringing his authentic recipe from Roma Italy to New York. His Fruti di mare is authentic and delicious. The staff is friendly and amazing. And Sammy the owner always greets me like family. I’ve been coming to L’Amore Ristorante for six years from California always feels like I’m at home

We had a nice experience here so I have to give 5 stars. I have always wanted to come here but had a hard time finding a reservation and never wanted to wait. Made a 430 reservation thru Resy. After booking I realized that they didn’t start serving food until 5, so I e mailed the restaurant and they kindly moved it to 5 pm. We were able to sit inside in a cute corner booth which was great because we were both celebrating our birthday. We didn’t get drinks but ordered an early dinner. We split a

If you’re going to splurge on an Italian dinner in New York, make it this one. Carbone masters upscale Italian-American dining with an elegant ambiance and welcoming staff that make the experience just as memorable as the food. We started with the warm mozzarella, salami, and toasted bread. It was SO good, so we ordered the Prosciutto and Mozzarella. We also went with the Eggplant and Zucchini Scapece. For our entrees we shared their signature Spicy Rigatoni and Mario’s Meatballs. Everything f

Our late lunch was absolutely wonderful! We enjoyed every bite and the personal attention. Suli Luigi and Mario gave were incredible! We definitely recommend checking this out when you’re in Little Italy!

The best pasta I've ever had. The fetuccine was just perfect. I added shrimps and they were cooked to perfection. I just couldn't get enough. I loved the atmosphere. It was cozy and the staff seemed like they were family and treated you as such. . The owner Marcella gives this restaurant a very distinctive feel. She scolds her employers if she feels the service is not up to her standards (it was). She is a little rough around the edges but it just gives the place so much more personality. I wo

Invited in for a collaboration, and still giving my honest, real experience (and I tipped as usual!) I really loved the vibe of this place, especially at night. The lighting gives it such a classic, romantic feel, perfect for a date or a cozy dinner. Everything we had was delicious, from drinks to mains to desserts, but what really stood out to me were the appetizers. They were honestly the most memorable part of the meal. Overall, just a really solid Italian spot with great ambiance and food

If you want to experience Italian-American comfort food at its finest, Patsy's Italian Restaurant in Midtown Manhattan is an absolute must. This iconic, family-owned gem has been serving up classic dishes since 1944, and it continues to deliver a memorable dining experience that feels straight out of a New York time capsule. The moment you walk through the doors, you're transported back to a nostalgic, warm atmosphere—photos of famous patrons like Frank Sinatra and The Sopranos cast cover the w

Maiella’s is a wonderful restaurant in Long Island City and a great choice for families, date nights, or group dinners. One of my favorite parts of dining here is watching the pasta being prepared in the cheese wheel right in front of you. It's fun to watch and makes the experience feel unique. The food has always been excellent whenever I've visited. The pasta is rich and flavorful, the steak was cooked perfectly, and the desserts were fantastic. The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, even on

We passed by this restaurant and was drawn to the wooden decor ceilings and open space. The toasted buns paired well with the jam. Fairly standard Italian pasta. The waiters were oddly slow for taking orders and handing out checks despite fairly limited customers. That said, the servers were very quick with the food and cheese/black pepper.

Incredible spot. A friend’s had this on their list for a while and they know their drinks so this place was bound to be solid. The interior is really cozy with warm vibes and if I could give service 6/5 stars I absolutely would. Every single person working here was incredibly personable, helpful, genuinely upbeat, and provided amazing service. They also had a solid, well curated playlist. The drinks also blew us out of the park. The C.R.E.A.M. Margarita is definitely very much so a margarita b

I recently had the chance to eat at Giovanni’s, and I can honestly say it was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. Everyone was attentive, helpful, and made sure that my experience was enjoyable from start to finish. The food was absolutely incredible—easily a 10/10. Every dish was prepared perfectly and packed with flavor. You could tell that high-quality ingredients were used, a

We ate at Benito One today and it was absolutely phenomenal. The chicken parmigiana was hands-down the best I’ve ever had — perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and clearly made with care. The Alfredo was incredibly rich and decadent, the kind you keep thinking about long after the meal is over. What truly set the experience apart was the service. It was personal, warm, and genuinely amazing — you can tell they care deeply about their guests. From the food to the atmosphere to the hospitality, eve

La Masseria offers a genuinely warm dining experience. Even when busy, the staff takes the time to check on every table and make sure everything is taken care of. They may not be flawless, but they are truly attentive. As a rabbit lover, I had the rabbit dish, and it was absolutely delicious. My friends ordered steak and seafood, and everything tasted fresh and well prepared. Everyone left very satisfied. The cocktails were excellent, and the dessert was delightful, especially the Tartufo al Ci

Visited here for dinner with family. We were able to get a table, without any wait. We ordered burrata for appetizers ravioli and pasta for main course. Service was excellent. Food was very tasty and authentic.

This place is great. I stopped by here after a morning in the park. I’m assuming the owner (or someone who really cares about customer service) greeted me at the door, walked me through the items on the menu. The menu is hand written, signaling I know I’m in for a treat. The pasta was handmade, I opted for tagliatelle with their ragu and focaccia. It did not disappoint! The ragu was so tasty, pasta cooked perfectly and the bread was so flavorful. I ate outside, it was perfection.

Great spot for families. The food is consistently solid here. Good chicken parm. Wish it was a little crunchier but the sauce is fantastic and it’s the right thickness. Carbonara is good. Meatballs are solid. Calamari is prepared perfectly. The tiramisu is incredible and you can’t top the Nutella pizza. That’s a real crow pleaser. The staff here are great, typical enthusiast New Yorkers, proud to be from the Bronx.

Wow!! Just wow! From initial point of contact while walking by, Jose Luis greets you with a smile and was so welcoming! He had me at hello! Additionally, the special! 3 courses for an amazing price! It was delicious! The mozzarella with balsamic salad was so light, the chicken parmagean was the perfect portion and well seasoned along with the pasta! Light and so well flavored. The cheesecake was the perfect ending to the delicious meal. I highly recommend you visit!

I loved everything here. The risotto was amazing. The free bread was amazing. The balsamic vinegar and the olive oil was amazing. They mix an amazing Old Fashion. The same is tiny but so well done. It is absolutely charming! The waitstaff was excellent.

Just got charged 65 for a 15-20 dollar bottle of wine . I get that Alcohol in certain places should cost 100% uo charge ,but 325% is insane. Usually when you buy a bottle its not as bad as a couple glasses. But cant ttust pricing I def wont trust the food. Lost my appetite . Will be going to NY Pizza down the road. Shady pricing is why this place most likely has a 4.1. Was going to wait for my dad to eat. But when I showed the waiter my review and she could care less and was definitely way l

Out of all the open places on the 24th of December in Little Italy, we stumbled upon this restaurant because of its name. Seeing the videos of Nonna, meaning grandma in English, enticed us to try for the first time to celebrate Christmas, and it did not disappoint. I am not usually a fan of Italian dishes because they’re too heavy for me, but the food was terrific! Even my friends from Texas were happy we dined in there. Service - amazing! From the receptionist to the servers. A 10/10. Plus, a

This place has quickly become one of my favorite spots on Staten Island. The atmosphere is great with a really clean modern bar, TVs for the games, and a lively dining room that makes it perfect whether you’re going out with friends or just grabbing dinner. The pizza here is phenomenal. The crust has that perfect crisp with a soft center and the ingredients taste really fresh. Every time I come here I end up ordering pizza because it is just that good. It is easily some of the best pizza on Sta

Verdict: Must Try! Had our pre-broadway show lunch here and it was awesome! Loved the appetizers we had - the eggplant parmigiana and the fried shrimp and squid. The pastas we had were excellent. Especially loved the carbonara! The server was prompt and attentive even when the room started filling in. We even got complimentary canolis and a bogo offer for when we come back. Will definitely be back when we visit the city again!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Review What an amazing experience at Umberto’s Clam House! The food was absolutely wow, every dish was fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. You can truly taste the quality and tradition in every bite. The owners personally took care of us, which made the experience even more special. Their hospitality and attention to detail were incredible and made us feel truly welcomed. And the desserts… absolutely amazing! The perfect ending to a fantastic meal. If you’re looking for authen

The food is delicious. But there are so many people and the table spacing is narrow. It's noisy, but if you enjoy this lively atmosphere, it's definitely valuable food. People really kept coming in constantly. There was a table inside, but they seated us right in front of the door, and we had to hit our heads on their bags every time people came in. Just because I am Asian.. The food is delicious, but there is no intention to revisit.

Very nice experience here. First hot day of the year, and we were hungry so we gave the first place we came across a shot. Warm welcome at the door, plus our choice of tables. Pizza was fresh and really good, and the service was friendly and quick. The restaurant offers a very pleasant ambience. Glad we tried it! ♿️

Dante is hands down my favorite brunch spot in NYC! The atmosphere perfectly captures the authentic charm of the West Village, warm, lively and effortlessly stylish! The drinks are always outstanding, and they serve what is, in my opinion, the best Bloody Mary in New York!! Every cocktail is crafted to perfection and makes brunch here feel extra special. What keeps me coming back, though, is the consistently impeccable service. The staff is welcoming, attentive, and always makes you feel taken

Stopped by Fiat Cafe in Nolita and everything felt so cozy and comforting. The pizza fritta was light and delicious, the calamari was crispy, the pappardelle hit like always, and the NY steak was cooked just right. The staff was also so sweet, which made the whole place feel even cozier. Definitely one of those spots you can relax in and enjoy good food.

If you’re looking for a great date spot, Il Piccolo Bufalo is it. The atmosphere is dim and romantic, making it the perfect setting for a night out with my husband. The highlight of the meal was definitely the arancini—they were heavenly and cooked to absolute perfection. What really made the night, though, was the service. The staff is upbeat, attentive, and genuinely friendly; we felt like we were among family from the moment we sat down. We will definitely be back!" Their sangria is a must!

Palma is genuinely one of the most beautiful restaurants I've ever been to. From the moment you walk in, it feels like you've been transported to Italy. Every corner of the restaurant is stunning, but my favorite part was the garden terrace in the back. It feels like a hidden oasis and a little piece of Italy right in the middle of New York City. I started with the watermelon salad, which was fresh, flavorful, and perfect for a summer day. I also ordered a Ghia Spritz, and it was one of my favo

I can’t believe this place isn’t more popular. Trattoria 35 offers a great intimate dining experience where the staff make you feel like family. Everything was delicious from the bread all the way to drinks and dessert. Not to mention the portions were very generous and easy to share. I couldn’t recommend this restaurant more, we loved it and will definitely visit again.

Wow, what a find! The seafood pasta special with a lobster tail was out of this world. Isaac the owner is super friendly and engaging. A bottle of homemade red wine on the table, family style. Tartufo?! I didn’t even know what that was, but OMG! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting with great music. Trust me…. just go!

Food is amazing and the ambience feels like an Italian kitchen. This is a hidden gem, large portions, delicious food and excellent waiter staff. Don’t hesitate❤️

Made dinner reservations and we got an amazing family style table in this really amazing, rustic looking, happy vibes place! Noise levels were on the higher end and you had to speak loudly to hear the other person across the table! José our server was friendly, attentive, and quick with his service. This is a very kid friendly place - so highly recommended for families with kids. At the same time, a great place for date night too. An extremely well priced menu, with great options is how I'd de

We were in New York celebrating a birthday and wedding anniversary, and after following Jonathan Waxman on TV for years and admiring his cooking, we decided it was the perfect occasion to finally visit his restaurant. On arrival, the restaurant presents itself beautifully, a clean, lively, and contemporary space with a fresh energy. The front-of-house team were exceptional throughout: warm, attentive, and genuinely on the ball without ever feeling intrusive. The cocktail list also set a strong

An excellent, authentic Italian restaurant in the Soho. It features both a shop selling Italian products and the restaurant itself. The menu is extensive and delicious, with vegetarian options available. There is an immense wine list. The atmosphere is warm, and the service is top-notch, expertly overseen by Julien. Highly recommended. A+++

What a great local experience in Brooklyn! Staff squeezed us in last minute and I’m so happy they did. Live music, families chatting and laughing together while servers whisked around the room with plates of home cooked Italian American staples. It’s like the Brooklyn Italian restaurant this see on tv or in a movie. Verdict: would return and recommend!!

After the show, my friend and I were looking for a place to have dinner to celebrate my birthday, and we just walked into this restaurant. We didn’t expect much, but the food turned out to be really good and the atmosphere was lovely. The only downside was the dessert timing. I had asked for the dessert to be served at the end, but it came out unexpectedly while our table was still full. They brought out a tiramisu with a sparkler, and because there wasn’t enough space, it ended up being a bit t

I’ve been coming to Tarallucci e Vino daily for 15 years. It’s a neighborhood treasure. Rita’s always made me feel like family, and Martina’s just as wonderful. The service is impeccable. The atmosphere’s lively and welcoming. The food, coffee, and wine list are outstanding. It always feels like home.

Mario’s of Arthur Avenue—Where Time Stands Still and Service Means Something This place is old school in all the good ways. The waiter was exceptionally well-trained and provided a level of service that’s become virtually extinct in this city. It feels like peering through a window into an era when they had your table waiting and your favorite dish already on the way. They started us with a selection of olive oils and pickled carrots that were aggressively spicy in the best possible way—sharp,

this is a great spot in Hell’s Kitchen if you’re looking to get a quick, hearty, affordable bowl of pasta before rushing to the next thing. because you know, you live in nyc. what are you doing if you’re not hustling? abel, the owner, clearly has an active hand and passion for this business because the food quality, cleanliness and service is solid. fun fact: the parmesan cheese wheel is older than this establishment 🧀 talk about things getting better with age!!

Absolutely delicious pasta with INCREDIBLE staff! So attentive and friendly. The tagliatelle mushroom was ridiculously good- I could come back for that alone.
