This is a classic, no frills, Mob-style Italian joint. The menu is simple as everything is served family style, and the best is the chicken a la grande! Great service and atmosphere. Make sure to make reservations early and bring cash. Can't wait to go back for the holidays!

Chicken a la grande is amazing, as were the spaghetti and meatballs. Great atmosphere and service. Would definitely return.

The little hole in the wall restaurant is something of a New Orleans legend, and it did not disappoint. The atmosphere of the place was straight out of Goodfellas, and although it takes a while for the food to be prepared, it was very good. I do think the restaurant has the most to offer in terms of character rather than menu, but would certainly recommend to others who are considering. Their meatballs were insane, best thing on the menu.

Impeccable food quality!!! I agree with all of the other reviews as far as food quality is concerned. This is “Italian grandmother”preparation at its best!!! The wait is worth it. Food is freshly made in a time that it takes to make authentically prepared dishes in a restaurant setting.

I just wanted to say that I absolutely love your response to Gia!
Average. That's the nicest thing I can say about this place. Being observant, I believe there is a measurable difference in the experience if you are a frequent patron. I would scroll through the comments here and try to discern between the good and the bad before making the trip.

Superior Italiana!! Lovely servers. Loud dining room… so jump in and raise your glass and your volume. The wait is totally worth it.

We have enjoyed Mosca’s many times in the past. Tonight they were out of unsweetened ice tea, crab meat salad, filets. The food we ordered was good. Then we went to order the pineapple fluff and they were out of that also.It was a let down for sure
