“food was good and so was service. very accommodating“

“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!“

“10/10!!! We had such an amazing experience here ! We were visiting the area and were recommended this restaurant by our hotel attendant. I have to start off by saying our waitress, Monica, was wonderful ! She had such an amazing personality, was super friendly and helpful. She gave so many great suggestions of other places to try during our stay which was SO appreciated and helpful. Also, the food by Chef Ian was absolutely wonderful! I had the pan seared chicken which was to die for and the meatball appetizer tasted wonderful. Thank you for the wonderful experience and if we’re in the area again sometime, we will be sure to come here again!“

“Visiting the area. We chose Amarone from Google. The best choice ever. Wonderful Italian food, friendly staff, prompt service. We will visit again.“

“Today I was delighted with the service at this restaurant, the young man who served me was very neat, gentle and very polite.

The food is lovely, the chicken with slices is according to its price, I was very surprised by the simplicity, but at the same time how charming this place is.“

“My family has patronized this establishment for years. When it was Jerry’s Pizza at the top of Teaneck Road. We enjoy it. Most times we get family Pie which is HUGE bbq chicken wings always cooked to perfection and chicken parm hero.The slices are delicious also.27 years and counting eating their food when we don’t cook.Definitely a go to for pizza Parties and school functions.Thanks so much for consistency and delicious food and great service.“

“The food was great, as always. Absolutely delicious. We were embarrassed, though, because we took somebody from out of town there and there are holes in the ceiling from leaks that have obviously been there a long time, unpainted plaster on the wall (with a ceiling leak above it), and the table was dirty and looked like it had not been cleaned well after more than one set of customers. With a little TLC EJ's could be one of our top choices for a dairy meal again. Until then, we won't bring anyone else there and will avoid it ourselves.“

“Easily the best pizza in Teaneck, and one of the top pizzerias in NJ. Their Drunken Grandma pie is one of the best slices I’ve ever had. The garlic knots are cooked perfectly, with nice crispy exterior and soft inside. Staff is extremely friendly. Overall a fantastic experience.“

“In all the years I've been eating from this restaurant the customer service has always been at high quality standards along with there delicious fresh taste of the food there prices are always reasonable and they always make the customers feel important. Thank you for your excellent customer service“

“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.“

“Excellent quality, service and ambiance!“

“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“

“Old world styled service crafted for enjoyment & delivered to perfection. Superb Italian food w several preparations table-side. White table cloths & candles but not stuffy. We were lively and had a super memorable time. Table of 8. We will be back. Highly recommend East side location now on 46th street between 2 & 3. $$$“

“It was truly an amazing experience. We were treated with kindness and respect. Dennis was so attentive as the entire staff. Our waiter was so kind too. The food, amazing. Lamb chops were delicious. We also had the parpadelle. Good wine selection. Great limoncello.“

“It’s a restaurant that’s reminds me of my childhood and my early Twenties that was my go to Italian restaurant. I loved everything about this place and enjoyed the great food. I took my wife to celebrate our birthday together and talked about how amazing it was growing up in this neighborhood.“

“Beautiful place for a special dinner or just a dinner when you feel like splurging a little. The ricciola (amberjack) is bright and fresh, and the fiochetti (with honeynut squash) is autumn warmth in pasta form. The cioccolato dessert is rich but not too sweet. The priced are a bit high, but the dinner is worth it.“

“Unforgettable!!! I highly recommend your restaurant!!!“

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

“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!“

“Good food , but the noise level was high. Was looking for a quiet upscale restaurant. The service was good but expected more attention to detail. ( how long before your empty plate is removed ) The bar and lounge area would have been ideal for our meal. It was quieter and more appealing as we left the restaurant, we walked through the area.“

Will continue eating here as well as have them cater for us again!“

“Authentic Italian Experience in the Heart of Astoria
We had an amazing time at Sotto la Luna with our friends — everything was simply perfect! The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the food was absolutely delicious — just like in Italy.
The restaurant has a beautiful setting, with an open kitchen where you can watch the chefs preparing your meal with care and passion. It adds a special touch to the whole dining experience.
During our 3-day stay in New York, we loved it so much that we came back for a second dinner. That says it all!
Congratulations to the entire team — you made our visit to Astoria truly memorable!“

“Amazing food and amazing experience, sat outside on the sidewalk on a beautiful night in NYC. The Bolognese was awesome. 10/10 would recommend. Side note shout out to Boris, his service was perfect, and was kind enough to bring us a cheesecake for our anniversary, well be back because of him.“

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

“Amazing Italian food and service in mid town Manhattan. Highly recommend this place. Save yourself the trip to little Italy 🇮🇹 and dine here instead.“

“Best fresh pasta in the city“

“The best pasta I’ve had in decades. Beautiful service, absolutely charming little restaurant. Don’t pass it by.“

“They treated us like Royalty!“

“Delicious food and great service“

“What a great experience, we came on a Friday night our first time in New York City celebrating joint mine and my boyfriend’s 21st birthday and also anniversary, this place was incredible. The staff really went above and beyond for us and treated us so well next time we’re in the city we’re definitely returning. They very kindly brang out a lemon sorbet desert for us to on the house. The vibes and the atmosphere of the restaurant are also great. A bit more on the pricier side depending what you get but worth every penny“

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

“The Sandwiches just like in Florence !!“

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

“Walked in on a Saturday evening (on the earlier side), and we were able to get seated at the “chef’s counter.” We started off with drinks at the bar ($10 cocktails from 4-6 PM!), which had a nice vibe, before moving to the chef’s counter right in front of the kitchen. It was nice to be able to see the hustle and bustle of the kitchen and take in the aroma of the various dishes being prepared.

We started with whipped ricotta and fig bruschetta; the balance of savory and sweet made for a nice bite, but some parts of the bread were grilled a bit too long and were burnt. For mains, we had fettuccine with white bolognese and fusilli with basil pesto and spicy sausage. Both pastas were very good. The white bolognese had hints of liver to add to the layers and richness of the flavor. The fusilli had a brighter flavor, with a nice dash of heat from the sausage.

Dessert was torta di formaggio, which ended up being a chocolate cheesecake. The upper shell was hard, which added to great textural contrast. The orange cream also balanced out the decadence of the chocolate.

Service was friendly and informative. The vibe was a bit more fancy than your average neighborhood spot, but not so fancy to be stuffy.“

“If you go in New York absolutely you have to go to taste the food in La voglia restaurant. I recommend to everyone.“

“😊La Giaconda is a friendly restaurant with authentic Italian cuisine. We had a small family Christmas Dinner there and were treated like family. They have an extensive wine list and delicious food.“

“Great location, great menu including GF pasta. Prices are very good for NYC and the service was extremely good! Highly recommend“

“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 atmosphere, delicious food and an amazing staff. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend.“

“This was the warm Italian hug I was wanting on our recent trip to NY. We were at the MOMI down the street, and had made reservations for dinner at Sac's after the museum. We had tired, hungry tummies, and were a good hour from our original reservation time. The good people over at Sac's accommodated my family immediately, and with pleasure! The atmosphere was welcoming, comfortable, inviting, and straight up authentic..this coming from a Sicilian girl with olive oil in her veins. My family ordered a variety of dishes, each one spectacular! 2 different pizza's, fried zucchini, sausage, and the BEST shrimp scampi I have ever eaten! The staff treated us like family, and were super attentive, anticipating our needs, and not missing a beat. At the end of our meal, Domenico Sacramone, one of the owners came by our table to chat, it was lovely and greatly appreciated! That's the extra touch of love, and attention someone who really cares about their business, and their customers puts out! It was genuine, and made the experience that much better! If we were locals, this would be our weekly dinner spot! Thank you to all over at Sac's Place for a wonderful meal, and a fantastic dining experience! We will most definitely be back“

“I mean, what can I say? I sat at the bar, like a lonely weirdo, and the staff was amazing. Fun people, great food, great service, and every one of the staff members has a great backstory. I’m only here four nights, I’ll probably come back four times.“

“It was so beautiful and the food was delicious“
