After 3 visits I can safely say this is my most recommended Italian Restaurant when people ask me. Pasta is so fresh and cooked perfectly. Pizza is made to order. Baked clams are a must try dish They are decked out for the holidays so get there this week for a fun and festive family dinner or date night to impress that special someone Highly recommend trying a pizza pie l, the a la vodka sauce is very special here and the dessert menu is extensive
Overall, a very normal spot that has decent availability (can be hard to find in the city). Came here on a Saturday night and it was filled, but not buzzing. Started with the beef carpaccio, which was the best dish of the evening. For mains, we shared the vodka pasta, and the prosciutto pizza. Both were good, but nothing stand out. Service was attentive once we were able to order, but we did have to ask to place our drinks and food orders. Overall solid spot, but nothing stand out for NYC.
We are from Switzerland and eat a lot of food in a lot of places. This place was absolutely fantastic. Close to Chelsea market and 16th St. where we were staying at the dream hotel. The food was phenomenal and the cook is absolutely great. However, there were some folks sitting next to us in a 14 person table that were very loud and it was difficult to hear conversation. That was not on the restaurant, though, they are absolutely fantastic. You should go here.
