Pretty mid. Go elsewhere or make it at home for better and cheaper.

Centanni had been my go-to Italian in Crown Heights for years. It’s very cute (though the indoor tables are a bit crowded now), I love the covered patio, and enjoy the food. It can sometimes vary in quality as I think they’ve had different chefs at different times. Shout out to their gluten free pasta option and yummy affordable brunch.

This as far as I know is the only Italian restaurant in the immediate vincity .and if it's not its definitely the most popular. I ate here once with my wife .I had my favorite spaghetti and meat balls delicious! But mostly I pick up my order .a couple of times I would just walk in and order in the early evening and there will be a male bartender who seems kind and I would sit at the bar and wait for my order . He will asked me if I wanted water and i felt relaxed. And sometimes I call and pick up the order. My wife's go to is the salmon I have nibbled on her salmon and it's great. The lighting is calm and low and the music is good. Go for a drink at the bar recommended ! Or eat inside but enjoy this place.

The staff there were very competent and helpful as I came there with two young grandchildren. Meatballs and calamari were loved by myself and the young kiddos. Excellent lasagna! My 2 year old grandson devoured 1/2 entree portion! Lovely atmosphere with a moody indoor space and an outside garden type experience

Just so disappointed. I ordered eggplant parmesan from Grubhub. When I ordered there was no box at the bottom to make special requests, and no picture. It basically was the name of what I ordered no description. The food came with an extra paper bag. Inside was 4 slices cold bread and no butter. The food came in a big container so I thought wow the portion would be a nice size. When I opened it more than 3/4 full of spaghetti and 2 slices of eggplant parmesan! I paid $25 for 2 slice of eggplant. There was no seasoning and not cooked through and no breading. I ended up throwing it out. I didn't want pasta and definitely don't feel like I got what I paid for. This was a fail. NEVER again.

i feel really bad leaving this review but i am so completely disappointed and unimpressed. the spaghetti al limone is just spaghetti (didn’t taste fresh or homemade) with lemon squeezed on top, and barely any at that. it was fairly flavorless so i added some spices, and the cheese from my penne vodka, to liven it up. the penne vodka also tasted like bulk pasta; the sauce would have been good if it wasn’t so thin and so sparse. the black kale caesar is just regular kale in a box with a couple croutons and 2 slices of cheese.
i can’t believe i spent this much money and this many calories on this food. i wish i had just made it myself, it’d be way better.
i’m sorry, i just really needed to be honest. there’s better pasta elsewhere.

Went for happy hour (which is only in the inside, mind you) had a couple really nice Negronis (made to order not batch) meatballs (beef) and calamari (fried), which was also on the happy hour menu and that was really nice too. Staff was genial as well.
Probably the worse service ever. I didn't get water until 10 minutes in. Also I didn't have a server. The food isn't good. The bartender openly talks about how much she likes or dislike the costumers which is based on the tip. I think this place has potential and maybe I was here for a bad night but I would not recommend this spot. There is another Italian spot up the street or I would try Mayfield's which is more American.

Prices that won't break the bank, and a nice atmosphere to get you out of the house.
Otherwise, paired with food that won't break any records.
Had the lasagna and the penne alla vodka - the penne alla vodka was particularly bland and worse that a bottled sauce (in my opinion), but the lasagna had some hearty notes to it.
