“I ate at Pazzo on Wednesday and had a great experience. The restaurant is take out only. I ordered at the restaurant instead of on the phone. The staff were super friendly and helpful with recommendations. The order took about 20 minutes and we had a drink outside while waiting. I HIGHLY recommend the shrimp and grits. Over anything else on the menu! And I was told the gnocchi was amazing too iAnd of course the pizza is awesome!“

Dal Makhani deserves special mention. Cooked to perfection but why would they put sugar in it😏 my only reason for a 4. malai kofta and lachha parantha were great. I would recommend this place for a wholesome family meal.
might want to try their brunch menu someday. Heard great reviews about it.“

I'm glad we sat outside, the music inside was nice but it would be far too loud to have a conversation in there.“

“I'm sure you'll find plenty of New Yorkers who, on principle, will exhibit nothing but disdain for any bagel that's made outside their city, but for me House of Bagels delivers a product that's consistently what I consider to be close to if not the quintessential bagel; fresh baked (on site), soft chewy interior, thin crispy crust, mildly sweet malty flavor. Plenty of type/flavor variety too, even pumpernickel which seems to be getting harder to find these days. I was really concerned this place was going to be negatively impacted by the pandemic, but I'm glad they survived.

One note: While there are a few outdoor tables, don't count on there being a place to sit, especially during busy times.“

“Always like a place where the windows open up to the street, and there are a couple tables in front on the sidewalk you could use with your pup. The decor is simple but nice. The service a bit on the slow side, but nothing to complain about assuming you're not in a hurry. Food is very good and flavorful. But being Burmese don't expect your pad thai to be like in Thailand (here it is a little sweeter), nor your curry like India (not as spicy). We came for lunch midweek, and it is a bit expensive for lunch (because all they serve is off the same menu used for dinner). So your better value may be dinner. Our bill was $60 for two without tip or any alcohol.“
