Wow. Everything was delicious. The meatball app was delicious. The Gnocchi Vodka Bianca was probably the best pasta dish I have ever had. The risotto with shrimp and calamari was also very good

We’ve made a tradition out of coming here while out in Dyker Heights for the Christmas lights! Be sure to get a reservation in advance that time of year, as it gets quite busy on weekends.

Had an awesome family dinner at Cavatappi in Brooklyn tonight with my wife and our boys, 10 and 12. Kicked off with crispy calamari and those killer meatballs in the best sauce ever—kids loved em.

Pork chop was huge and juicy, seared perfect, but the seafood pasta? Packed with shrimp, clams, mussels, total winner. Family run, and the staff was so friendly, chatting up the kids like old pals.

Wrapped up with a drive through Dyker Heights...
