50 Best Italian Restaurants near Bogota

“Been going for 30 years since the Ridgefield Park days. Food never disappoints.“

“Amazing.... I come in from California and where do I go for my pizza, sandwiches or anything else?? Right here... so good!!!! �“

“Great Italian food and a decent menu, not much choice but not too much. It's located next to Post Office 34 and is very trendy. The view and service are great, but it's noisy as there isn't much to absorb the sound. We ordered focaccia, roasted peppers and pasta. Everything is great and super fresh.“

“Absolutely the best food in NYC we finally got a bar seat this past Saturday was in the city for pride we have been trying for years everything was spot on crysathenn salad, the stuffed flatbread and lasagna and cocoa tiramisu“

“Went for our anniversary!! Had an amazing meal!! Wonderful service and great atmosphere!! Highly recommend!!“

“Excellent quality, service and ambiance!“

“The cocktail selection is phenomenal, it’s balanced and delicious, even the people sat next to us agreed! My favorite dish is probably stuffed farfalle with snow crab. It’s creamy and just the right amount of crab, flour and sauce to balance each bite! You’ll be amazed!! Another go to is definitely steak. It’s lightly fried on the outside but juicy inside which is not overly oily, spicy crunch on top adds an Asian style kick. A gem place for sure!!💕“

“Pleasant less formal atmosphere, but very efficient service. Delicious pastes. I highly recommend :)“

“Our evening at Chazz Palminteri Italian Restaurant was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the maître d', Albert, made us feel like cherished friends instead of first-time guests. His warmth, professionalism, and effortless attention to detail were truly remarkable. He checked on us throughout the evening without ever being intrusive, making sure every part of our experience was perfect. It's rare to encounter someone who elevates hospitality into an art form, but Albert did exactly that. The restaurant itself strikes the perfect balance between lively and intimate and the food was delicious. Every dish exceeded our expectations. The Bucatini Carbonara was well-seasoned and creamy and the pancetta added incredible richness and depth. The fried calamari was perfectly tender with a light, crisp coating and the Prince Edward Island mussels were plump, juicy, and tasted wonderfully clean, briny, and sweet—an absolute standout. The attentive waitstaff made the meal feel seamless from beginning to end. At Albert's suggestion, we moved to the bar after dessert, and the evening somehow became even better. We enjoyed glasses of port and pear brandy, followed by spectacular espresso martinis. Nora, the bartender, crafted some of the best we've ever had. Just when we thought the night couldn't get any better, Mr. Chazz Palminteri himself stopped by. He was incredibly gracious, took the time to say hello and take a picture with us, and made us feel genuinely welcome. It was the perfect finishing touch to a truly memorable evening. The food and drinks were absolutely on point, but it was the genuine warmth and hospitality of Albert, and the entire staff, that made this such a special experience. They didn't just serve dinner—they created an evening we'll remember for a long time. We will absolutely be back, and we can't wait to see the wonderful team again.“

“I have been at least a half-dozen times, and they never disappoint. Service is nearly perfect; the food is absolutely superb (fish last night may be among the best I've ever had -- and I eat out a lot), and the personal attention is so appreciated. I'll be back --- and I HIGHLY recommend it!“

“Burrata e verdure was amazing for appetizer. Tonnarelli was nice, too. But Rigatina (the chopped steak) was too salty. We had Berries with cream as dessert, and it was great!

The portion of the food was unlike other restaurants in New York. I think it’s bit overpriced because they weren’t big. Three dishes were just enough for 2 people.“

“repas poisson excellent et canolli extra“

“We had our wedding at Rialto and couldn’t imagine a perfect ceremony and reception.

Dominic and the Rialto team were incredible. Super attentive and went out of their way to make sure our day was as special as can be.

We have no idea how but they managed to make sure the food was always fresh and hot when served, even the branzino, which is not easy to do all at once for ~75 people. Seriously impressive.

They really outdid themselves and we will definitely come back to Rialto for dinner which now holds a special place in our hearts. ❤“

“TL;DR: Grab a table outside, enjoy a glass of wine with a plate of pasta, and do some people-watching. This is an amazing spot to wind down the evening!

Food:
I have had the orecchiette (brunch) and the lasagne (dinner). I have also tried the chicken milanese panini. The food really is quite spectacular here: I love that you can really taste how high quality and textured the pasta is. For seemingly simple dishes, they do an amazing job at the flavor. They have good wine selection as well with some affordable options. There is also a happy hour as well to look out for!

Service:
The waiters here are quite friendly and very attentive. They regularly ask if you need anything, and they’ll come do water refills as needed. No complaints at all.

Ambiance:
Located on a street with a good amount of foot traffic but is not that loud. It’s very comfortable outside, and they have seating indoors as well (although I exclusively choose to sit outdoors here). There is a clean restroom downstairs as well.“

“Visited on Tuesday evening quite late and had such an amazing experience at Osteria Nonnino. We shared a pizza to start, followed by fish and the vodka pasta for mains – every dish was absolutely outstanding. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, and we felt so well looked after from start to finish. The food was honestly second to none. Such a hidden gem, would highly recommend to anyone in NYC.“

“The staff were amazing and so was the food! My Mom has a very restrictive diet and she was able to eat and didn’t have a reaction afterward which is rare for her unfortunately. We came into the restaurant 5 minutes before closing and was able to accommodate our large party. Cannot say enough good things!“

“By far our favorite restaurant we visit in the city. Have been here over 500x and the tagliatelle with sheep’s cheese cabbage and shrimp will never get old ! Carmine runs a beautiful establishment on the UWS“

“The pizza is excellent, there is a modest amount of space to eat in, and they have a bar so customers can enjoy an adult beverage with their meal. Friendly service and a reasonable wait makes this good value for one’s money. We will be back!“

“We came here last night at the last minute - no reservation. Doing that on a Saturday night in the trendy west village usually results in a firm “no” from the maître D’. Instead , our party of 4 was welcomed into a lovely restaurant , quiet yet lively with a very friendly and attentive waitstaff. Had a great time and would definitely return.“

“Delicious food good service“

“This is some of the best food and the best dining experience I've ever had. Everything was so exquisite, thoughtful, flavorful, surprising, lovingly made without any frills. All you really need to do is glance at the kitchen to get it.“

“The service stood out our bartender was attentive“

“Attentive staff, good food , nice atmosphere . Most definitely will return next trip into the city“

“We came in here by accident and what a joy. Ambience is lovely inside you can actually hear yourself talk as you dine unlike so many other restaurants in nyc and their cesar salad omg. They just need more croutons and shredded cheese on it but wow those croutons oh my on another level.“

“If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would! The food was amazing, the atmosphere was wonderful, and the service was exceptional. A special thank you to William, who went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. Friendly, attentive, and professional from start to finish. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back!“

“Wonderful Christmas Eve dinner on our visit to NYC. Service & Food were both excellent. Lovely family setting.“

“Sooooo good and so delicious and great attention A+“

“It’s great place with very delicious pasta and artesanal pizza! 🍝🍕“

“Our meal was delicious! The staff was very friendly. Our sweet server even brought us a complimentary Tiramisu. ❤️“

“Took my 2.5 year old niece to Da Adriano and they could not have been nicer or more accommodating to us. We ordered the bolognese and the special of the day which was pistachio pesto and better than any pistachio pesto i had in Sicily two weeks ago. My niece said it was her new favorite restaurant and she loved the pasta. Clean ingredients, evoo only and authentic! Can’t wait to come back to this neighborhood spot!“

“We used to frequent the Astoria location which was always so great. The new Manhattan location is no different. Somewhat smaller, but just very cozy and very nice looking. Amazing food as always. The flavors and taste are just the best. No matter what you order you will not go wrong. The service is top notch and Rocco and his staff are just the best at what they do. Just go, you won't regret it.“

“Amazing food, amazing atmosphere and AMAZING HOSPITALITY! When in NY you must try!“

“A wonderful restaurant - delicious food, wine, marvelous service. Thank you“

“One word DIABLO !!!🙏❤️ Frost Beer was ice cold !!!“

“Went there for my 65th birthday…first of all the space was beautiful…warm and charming! Michael was so accommodating to our large group…made a perfect recommendation for wine and was more than gracious. The group of us left feeling well cared for and enveloped in warmth! Thank you for a memorable experience“

“Amazing pasta and staff, that are actually from Italy! 🇮🇹“

“I called around 5 p.m. looking for a last-minute reservation for a friend and me. The only thing available was “outdoor seating on the patio,” and I was a little disappointed. I’ve been dying to try this place, though, so we took it. Turns out I was completely wrong, the patio is gorgeous. It’s tucked away in the back, mostly shaded beneath a tree, and sits beside a sizeable fountain that provides a constant, pleasant background soundtrack.

The waitstaff was fantastic. Danya was friendly, knowledgeable, and helped us navigate the menu. Another member of the waitstaff whose name I unfortunately didn’t catch was equally warm and welcoming. We ordered the bufala mozzarella with smoked cherries, the focaccia (which I am very grateful Danya talked us into, holy hell), the guinea hen ragu, and the sea bass with some sort of saffron and tomato magic happening in the sauce. Everything was excellent, but definitely don’t sleep on the focaccia and ragu. The reviews do not lie about the ragu, and the focaccia ruined me for lesser breads. Whoever engineered the martini’s on the drink menu deserves an award. Hell yeah.

For dessert, we ordered the mint ice cream. I am neither a mint person nor much of an ice cream person, which makes it even more surprising that I thought it was fresh, surprisingly herbal and fantastic, the ultimate summer solstice dessert. The kitchen also sent out a chocolate cake with ganache and orange that was absurdly good. We weren’t a particularly big-spending table and have no history with the restaurant, so I can only assume they could tell we were vibing hard with the food and decided to send us completely over the top. Thanks, you guys.

10/10 experience. We’ll both be back as soon as we can.“

“We happened to be walking by on a Friday night and my husband pointed it out. Our pasta was fresh and delicious and served so quickly. The staff was beyond attentive and professional. The bathrooms were gorgeous and clean. It delivered on all aspects. We had Zeppole with lemon curd for dessert and it was unreal!“

“We had a great experience learning how to make pasta! The food was so delicious. This would be something fun to do with a group or family members. Our waiter Mica was fantastic as well as the chef who taught us Anthony. Thanks guys for a fun night in NYC!“

“Always come back to this special place in NYC for dinner, jazz show up stairs on weekends. Quality cuisine and service is the best in NYC. Special thanks to Luis, Lopez, and bar-tender Angel for making our night so special and showing us the jazz bar recommendations.“

“Chef Waxman and his exceptional team gave my wife a birthday experience she will never forget. Not only did you provide exceptional service and amazing food but went above and beyond in every conceivable way to make her birthday the best one she has ever had. Best experience, food and service we have ever had. Thank you so very much.“

“Well paced and enjoyable lunch. The waiter provided several recommendations that were fantastic. All the cold fish appetizers were beautifully presented and delicious. Pasta was perfect. Approachable wine list, including half bottles which are great when ordering a mix of seafood and meat. Celebrating our anniversary, every person who greeted us or came to the table wished us a happy anniversary, a lovely touch. Love the interiors and the transition from low intimate to soaring ceilings, detail paid to the lighting.“

“a great experience . high quality food“

“We sat outside. Our party was served quickly and efficiently. Food was very good.“

“the food is phenomenal and the decor transports you out of the Bronx“

“Tom Colicchito’s Valatta Restaurant in Union Sqaure on E19th is serving up elegance, flavor, & vibes all in one bite. From handcrafted cocktails to the most perfectly plated entrees, every detail is next-level“

“Whether you live in NYC or visiting this fine city you need try Ill Tinello NYC on East side. I am in love with everything there. Wine, cocktail, food, dessert, staff and of course Benny. Everyone and everything is A+. The one and only negative point is when you have to leave. That is only followed but setting a date for a return. Love ya Ill Tinello NYC East !!!!“

“Great food and atmosphere. The mocktail was superb“

“the spinach ravioli was to die for...it was just the right serving...sauce was great“
