“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.“

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

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

“Excellent quality, service and ambiance!“

“I took my grandma here for her 71st birthday and the service was very good with the waiter checking on us constantly and the food coming fast. Some of the best Italian food I have ever had I got the mushroom ravioli and my grandma got the seafood risotto which was incredibly fresh. We are from out of town but I will definitely be coming back here!“

“I loved my dinner here and will be coming back again and again. The food and service are exceptional (the tomato salad is amazing and their grilled chicken outstanding) and it's one of those restaurants -- increasingly all too rare -- where you feel genuinely welcome and wanted from the minute you walk in the door. My friend broke her wine glass towards the end of our meal (we were both finished eating our main courses) and the maitre d' offered to give us two new main courses because there was food left on our plates and they were concerned about glass shards in our food. We declined but it was an incredibly thoughtful offer (and the accident was entirely our fault). Lovely atmosphere, top-notch cocktails and outstanding food. Go!“

“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“

“Juan was INCREDIBLE! We came visiting from Canada and chose Seranos because of their gluten free menu. Not only was the food amazing and so delicious. But JUAN went above and beyond for us!!! So funny, charming, outgoing and helpful. We were celebrating our birthday and he made us feel extra special. We will be coming back but just for Juan. Give this man a raise. Thanks for the great hospitality Seranos!!!“

“This place is truly a hole in the wall! In the best way! My son recommended us this Italian wine bar with real candles, lighting the entire restaurant and with a very romantic ambience upstairs! The food was phenomenal, our waiter was friendly and the wait staff was quick! I must say the hostess was a bit distracted when we arrived, while she was sitting on a table by the entrance on her phone. I think that looks unprofessional for “the face” of the restaurant. We enjoyed our meal and were sat upstairs aside not having a reservation. We will definitely be back next time we are in the city!“

“Coming back to Corto felt extra special. We got married here last November 2024, and we just came back last Thursday to experience dinner with our friends visiting from Manila. I insisted on bringing them here because I wanted them to see and feel what our wedding was like and because I simply love this restaurant.

The food, as always, was exceptional and never disappointing. Authentic Italian flavors, beautifully prepared and full of warmth. It was also our first time experiencing Corto during dinner, and the cozy evening ambiance made the night feel even more intimate and special.

The staff were warm, welcoming, and incredibly accommodating. They even surprised us with a complimentary appetizer after I mentioned that we had our wedding here. It was such a thoughtful gesture and honestly made us feel so touched and remembered.

Corto will always hold a special place in our hearts—not only for the wonderful food and service, but for the memories we made here. We’re so happy to have returned, and we’ll definitely be back again.“

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

“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!“

“The food was amaze. Cute place.“

“Casa Lever may be my favorite expression of Park Avenue: architecturally serious, commercially consequential, and somehow much more playful than the traditional power lunch establishment. Lever House itself is one of my favorite classic buildings in New York, a 1952 modernist landmark whose glass-and-steel design still looks almost impossibly sharp against this stretch of Midtown. For my money, the design relative to the location is unbeatable if you prefer great twentieth-century architecture to new construction.

Park Avenue from the high 40s through the upper 50s is the highest velocity investment corridor in the world: information, fundraising, and transactions all moving through an extraordinarily dense piece of Manhattan. Third Point once headquartered here before moving to Hudson Yards, which I always thought was incredibly cool and a particularly fitting choice for Dan Loeb. I’ve experienced Casa Lever on several different occasions, including meeting a friend outside for a beer after work and, on another visit, having lunch inside.

Inside, everything feels considered, from the curved architecture and sculptural ceiling to the wonderfully restrained Casa Lever typography. The Warhol portraits were the masterstroke when I knew the restaurant: Giorgio Armani, the Shah of Iran, Farah Pahlavi, Aretha Franklin, and Dennis Hopper were among the faces looking out over the dining area. There is something deliciously apt about dining beneath that Warhol pantheon on Park Avenue, where financiers, media titans, and dynastic fortunes have long crossed paths with the people shaping fashion, advertising, and culture.

Later, on a completely separate occasion, I returned for dinner with a larger group and remember sitting around a big round table near the banquettes. Across lunch, dinner, and drinks, what stayed with me was how polished the service was and how effortlessly chic the whole experience felt. There is a more creative, feminine energy here than at many of Midtown’s harder-edged power restaurants, sophisticated without becoming stiff and glamorous without feeling theatrical.

The prices are pure Park Avenue, but so is the proposition: extraordinary architecture, extraordinary geography, and one of the coolest places in New York to bring someone when you want the city itself to participate in the evening. Casa Lever feels timeless because it never seems to chase relevance; the building, the design, and the people passing through already provide enough electricity. Few establishments capture this particular intersection of commerce, taste, history, and social theater quite as well.“

Such a hidden gem, would highly recommend to anyone in NYC.“
