“Rosario and his staff are the best! Consistently great food and service!! Always smile , a joke and a great meal!! Maywood needed this place!!!“

“Great spot, quick service, decent pizza, reasonable price

My family of four ordered a medium pie with half pepperoni and half cheese and a grilled chicken wrap, and the food came out in no time. We shared a family meal in a clean joint and we left with full, satisfied bellies.

Thanks for the memories!“

“Excellent quality, service and ambiance!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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“

“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.“

“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!“

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

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

“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!“

“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!“

“a great experience . high quality food“

“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.“

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

“They treated us like Royalty!“

“Enjoyed a wonderful meal outdoors Saturday night. Waiter was attentive, food was delicious and atmosphere was quaint. Would definitely plan to be back again.“

“A close walk from the Met. We went on a Friday night and asked for an outdoor table (our reservation did not indicate either inside or out). Service was wonderful. We started with the meatballs which were good, but it was only 4 small meatballs. I enjoyed the Rigatoni with Sausage and Mushrooms. The fettuccine with beef ragu was also good, but missing a little something. The cannolo for dessert was a highlight.“

“Good food good service recommend you get a good pizza margarita“

“Staying at the hotel, Bocca di Bacco Chelsea was a great choice easy to get to, cozy, friendly staff and the food was absolutely delicious. It felt comfortable and welcoming like a place you’d happily go back to again.“

“The food, service were outstanding. I’ll be back the next time I’m in NY.“

“Delicious food and great service“

“This is one of the best restaurants I have been to. Service was fast, staff friendly, GREAT food (try the pasta). We saw Beetlejuice and it was an easy walk from the restaurant. Thank you!“

“Super cozy neighborhood restaurant. The food is delicious and happy hour is a must! $7 glass of wine and tons of appetizers to choose from. Reservations recommended in advance as the place was packed when we were there.

Thank you for a wonderful evening!“

“A wonderful dining experience“

“Great atmosphere great food great vibe great service!!!!“

“I love this place! Came here with a group of 11 at 1PM on a Sunday for brunch and it was all of our first times. The bottomless special is likely one of the best I’ve had in the city. $45 for 90 minutes of brunch drinks plus an entree.

To eat we had chicken and eggplant parmigiana, carbonara, banana bread french toast, and the frittata. The chicken parm was defintely the star, I think 3-4 of us ordered it. Drinks were excellent, the tropical fizz was the best of the options but can’t go wrong with any of them.

Shoutout to Florin for accommodating my group and helping me have one of best birthdays I’ve ever had. He also served us and made the drinks, he does it all! I’ll definitely be coming here again to check out the happy hour specials and dinner.“

“Exceptional food and service. Each dish had a combination of flavors and textures that were exciting. We loved nearly everything and the items we did not love were still really good. It's not cheap, but I highly recommend it!“

“Great experience everything was perfect 😍“

“Place is a hidden treasure. Food is outstanding! The waiters were very welcoming, funny and very attentive without rushing us before we could ask for anything they were right there. The owner is super sweet with a beautiful personality. He makes you feel welcomed from the moment you walk in. The food was phenomenal every dish was seasoned perfectly and portions were plentiful. The prices very reasonable for the service and food quality they provide. This is so far our favorite Italian cuisine restaurant I'm so glad we live close by we will be back. If I could give a 10 star I would!“

“Fantastic food, service and atmosphere… feels like home only better! I highly recommend Tarrallucci e Vino!“

“Love the food, love the place, very attentive, don't walk run here, great!“

“The Sandwiches just like in Florence !!“

“Recommended.“

“If you’re looking for a place that nails every single detail—from hospitality to atmosphere to unforgettable food—NIZZA is it. From the moment we walked in, the energy was warm, welcoming, and effortlessly cool. Huge shoutout to Anthony and Paul in management—true pros who clearly care about the guest experience. They set the tone for the entire restaurant, and it shows. The staff is phenomenal: attentive without hovering, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind. You feel taken care of in the best way.“

“Delicious food, perfect atmosphere and great service! Overall fantastic experience!“

“Had a two-night stay at the Marriott in Teaneck, NJ, and ate at Pancetta. Highly recommend asking for Moni—she was exceptionally busy but still managed to give us attentive, excellent service. Food-wise, my margarita was a bit sharp, but some agave fixed it right up. My wife’s Prosecco was perfect, and her chicken parmigiana was tender and delicious. My braised lamb shank had great flavor, though it was a bit too chewy for my liking. Overall, a good spot to check out if you're in the area!“

“Verana is hands down one of the best dining experiences in Bergen County. The food is consistently incredible, from the homemade pastas to the perfectly cooked seafood and steaks. You can really tell there’s attention to detail in every dish. The atmosphere feels upscale but still warm and comfortable, and the service was professional without being pretentious. Easily a restaurant you can go to for a special occasion or just a great night out. Can’t wait to come back.“

“Absolute hidden gem tucked in a quiet street in Greenwich Village. The service, food, and vibes were all fantastic.

The staff, in particular, made it a special experience. Super attentive, engaging, and knowledgable - can't really ask for anything more.

If the sidewalk tables are available, grab one. It's a perfect environment to enjoy some amazing food.“

“Good food 😀😂 friendly service“

“Its one of the original italian family oriented place to go, excellent food, food deliveries in nearby places specially bad weather and for those living alone . Very friendly owners and staff that you can depend on. Try it.“

“Second time within a week returning this evening for a birthday celebration. Not disappointed and highly recommend. First time our server Sydney was stellar.“

“This restaurant exceeded my expectations in every way. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, and the attentive, friendly service made the entire dining experience enjoyable. Sitting at the front tables overlooking Central Park feels like a mini vacation, offering a beautiful and unique view of New York City from that perspective. I would gladly return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an outstanding meal.“

“First meal out with a friend for a long time and didn't disappoint. All three courses were amazing along with the wine, beer and friendly staff. 10/10“

The decor was perfect setting for our celebration!! We will definitely be back to this spot again!!“
