A small but excellently designed menu. Apps, Salads, pastas and entrees. Well thought out choices. This is not a typical Italian-pile of tomato pasta type of restaurant. Service was excellent. The server was familiar with the wines. The restaurant was busy, but the food came out timely. We have eaten here many times, and plan to return soon.
The roasted eggplant with farro was delicious - and dairy free! Pastas are usually a good bet and so is the chicken roasted with butter. Good cocktails and wine options too!
We were in a small section by the window, which, in normal circumstances, would have been a nice, intimate setting. But, given there was a VIP next to our table, at least 5 separate employees came to their table, and other guests, to say hello, and have a lengthy conversation with them, with one employee leaning against the window next to us, to talk with them. It felt intrusive of our space, with little regard to our experience. In addition, while the server was friendly, there were some strange encounters throughout the night, that may have just felt offputting given the experience we were having, but it felt a little casual for the dining experience. Again. Great server. Friendly. Kind. Very knowledgable. But, also a tad strange, with also some weird moments that weren't picked up on initially.
We needed to eat quickly since we were going to a concert and our server could not have been more accommodating. The food was great and our friends really enjoyed their meals. Wonderful evening.
The food is consistently outstanding. One of the best Negronis I've had! Service is always stellar. And Isabel the hostess is fantastic. I always enjoy my time here!
Amazing dinner and food. The Chef is off the chart and the wait staff is very attentive. We will definitely be back. Best heirloom tomatoes I tasted this season and Florentine Steak fantastic!
Excellent menu, attentive and personable staff!

Via del corso never disappoints. It's our to go place when we want a sumptuous, well prepared diner. Food and service are excellent. Good for a special night as well as for a regular night out with a friend or partner, or even solo dinning. Will always return.
Absolutely the best restaurant I’ve ever been to

Fantastic trattoria! Seasonal dishes using the freshest ingredients with an Italian spirit. The menu changes constantly to incorporate freshest ingredients creatively. Most of all, it is truly like a trip to Italy without the long flight. Keep up the great work!
Great option for delicious meal. Great servers.
