Sorry for bothering the guy at the front who was in the middle of his conversation on the phone. Order online said it was ready. Ask the guy how long when I get there. Wait 10 minutes and got a cold meal with non toasted baguette with butter on it and a warm coke. Had to keep asking when it'd be ready with no response. Ask for the manager. She comes out and she's in the middle of a conversation too. What's going on here? Of course I have to get my money back online...

This is a small restaurant across Central Park, the food is given in large portions but we found the meat was limited. We had to wait 1 hour after ordering to receive the food so the service is really slow due to how busy they are.

Good sized portions for the price. Realized that the photos online of the interior were much nicer than in person hahaha. I wouldn’t recommend eating in, I think this place is better meant for takeout. Pasta was great! Good vegetarian options.

Went here for dinner. I ordered the carbonara and my girlfriend made her own pasta.

I enjoyed my carbonara, which was a reasonable price and a reasonable portion.

My girlfriends came with a LOT of sauce. We saved the container, cooked our own pasta the next day to add to the sauce and got a second meal out of it

I do think the cheesy garlic bread wasn’t very good. Would recommend you just pick up one of the foil pouch garlic breads from the grocery store for a few dollars and eat that with the pasta.

I ordered 4 pastas for delivery through Uber and they only gave me two. This was highly disappointing and a huge waste of my time and money. The food we received was disappointing and had an odd flavor profile, it had unusual spices in it that didn't seem typical of most Italian food. I cannot recommend this restaurant for delivery as they seem to not pay very close attention to orders nor do they make an effort to check their receipts.

The delivery bag was not secured like most places, it was just in a loose plastic bag, so in the possibility that the driver stole my food, it would still be the fault of the restaurant for not securing the order. I thankfully received a refund for my order from Uber, but frustratingly still needed to waste more money getting more food for the people who didn't get theirs.

Based on my experience and the reviews of others, this place seems to have a huge problem with quality control and getting orders out correctly. Don't waste your time or money here.

The staff is friendly, and the food is pretty decent. However, the food takes a lot of time, so be ready to wait for a while. Ambience is average as well.

Overall experience is okay.

The place was clean and the prices were decent. The choose your own dish looks very full but it is mostly Alfredo sauce! I was surprised when I ran out of noodles. The amount of protein was very low. I had shrimp and smoked salmon but there was very little of both. The taste was fine but bland. I would have preferred more Parmesan or any cheese for a stronger taste. I thought it was great that I could customize my pasta. The noodles were nice and chewy. I liked the fresh basil and parsley on top but it is a very small amount. The serving was a good size to leave me very full. The server was very patient for me, a newbie. I would like to rate it a 3.5 if Google would let me.

Pasta was overdone and sauce was incredibly watery. Atmosphere is super dead inside too.
