What to order: Lobster ravioli · Pappardelle Bolognese · Chicken ParmigianaThe 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.

What to order: Lobster Ravioli · Spaghetti Carbonara · Zia’s Fried CalamariCame here for a date night with my hubby! And it was definitely worth it. The calamari appetizer is a must get!

The staff was very positive, welcoming, and made our experience great! I highly recommend this spot & will definitely be back!

What to order: Spaghetti alla Carbonara · Risotto ai Frutti di Mare · Shrimp pasta · Homemade pizza (light and crunchy)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

What to order: Lobster Ravioli · Chicken Parmigiana · Fettuccine AlfredoWe 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

What to order: Rigatoni alla Vodka · Ravioli Della Nonna · Fried CalamariOut 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

What to order: Arancini (Risotto Rice Balls) · Aperol Spritz · Pomegranate SparklerIf 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!

What to order: Avocado Toast · Breakfast Burrito · Avocado BLT · Lavender Cold Brew CappuccinoStopped in for breakfast and was pleasantly surprised how nice the atmosphere, people, and food were. Plenty of seating, including a rear patio, and a nice relaxed vibe to the cafe. The coffee was delicious and my kids enjoyed their iced chais. The breakfast burrito was a few steps above your typical breakfast burrito- the fresh avocado accompanied the scrambled eggs and bacon nicely. While a bit pricey for a burrito, it filled me up for hours. The avocado toast was beautifully presented and cam

This place is very solid. The chef is super creative. The Steak Frites were amazing, the hand cut fries were a major highlight! Their Creme Brulé was one of the best I've ever had, the chef made sure not to burn the sugar (I know. It's supposed to be slightly burned) but it honestly made a world of difference! I don't drink, but they made me some alcohol free mocktailes, the Matcha Martini, which tasted like a matcha chocolate milk, and the Salud SoHo, hints of lemon and strawberry berry. My fri
