I had dinner by myself a few weeks ago (a spur of the moment decision) and was so delighted to have found Cremini’s! The owner was super welcoming, the squid ink pasta was packed with umami and flavor, and La Dolce Vita was playing in the background. It felt super intimate and cozy. I also learned the plants hanging from the ceiling are REAL!!

Can’t wait to come back and try other dishes on the menu!

Coming from the same little town of the chef Elena, when we came in NY we couldn’t miss this place! The atmosphere was incredible, they are very friendly and the food was absolutely amazing and authentic! If you are looking for a traditional Italian cuisine, you have to try this restaurant. Highly recommend it 😊

Me and my husband are Italian food fans. So we had a dinner at Crimini's, we love the cozy welcoming atmosphere and tasty authentic Italian dishes. The business is run by 2 people who are passionate about what they do and that translates into their work.

I can't say enough about this wonderful restaurant or its lovely owners. Cremini's is the closest I've experienced in New York to feeling like I'm in Italy. Riccardo always warmly welcomes you and handles all of the front of house, while chef Elena does all of the cooking (which I still can't believe).
They have a terrific wine selection and cocktails are also available. You have to try the ascolane olives, a specialty of the house — stuffed and fried, they are always a delight. The pastas are made in house and are all excellent! I love the black spaghetti... the pesto is always a favorite... the carbonara... the amatriciana! I could go on…
We've never been disappointed here and always look forward to our next visit. Elena and Riccardo truly make every meal feel special! We love them and their terrific place — they make it feel as much like a home as a restaurant. Bravissimo!!

This is my neighborhood regular spot. I love bringing my friends and family here for the food, and for the unique Italian experience. Learning an about the region of Le Marche is a bonus. Must haves: Stuffed olives, zucchini, meatballs, yhr regional pasta specials and Elena’s burger. The owners are the warmest people, they pour their hearts into each meal and each dining experience. I look forward to the greeting and great conversation each visit. This is a special place.

We cannot wait to come back to this neighborhood gem. The wine, the fried olives, the lemon pasta, the carbonara pasta, the staff and overall atmosphere, and omg the wild boar pasta! Pasta literally so good it had to be mentioned thrice!

Truly one of the best Italian meals I’ve ever had in NYC. Creminis is authentic and delicious! Elena and Riccardo are some of the nicest people that truly welcome you in as if it’s their home. They offer some great wines from the Marche region that pair really well with their homemade pasta. I’d suggest their fried olives and fried mozzarella bites to start, and as for pasta, I’m a huge fan of the amatriciana (right amount of spiciness) or stuffed gnocchi! Finish off with their tiramisu and you’ve got the perfect meal!

Truly one of my favorite Italian restaurants in New York. It’s authentic and they have a lot of items you can’t get in other places. Worth the trip to visit this hidden gem!

Elena and Riccardo are very welcoming in to their charming atmosphere— projecting classic Italian movies under the warm lights of Italian midcentury fixtures.

Love the Pinsa (Mortadella Pesto) and Olive Ascolana (Fried Stuffed Olive style from their hometown region of Le Marche, Italy) for dinner. For brunch they serve Crescia, a flakey bread sandwich, with my choice: arugula, mortadella and a stracchino spread.

The restaurant is owned and operated by the pair— Elena as Chef and Riccardo at front of house. Although they opened only in 2020, they have quickly become a neighborhood staple for many!

My husband and I have enjoyed many meals at Cremini’s, a true neighborhood gem. You can’t go wrong with the dishes - olives, seasonal pasta and pinsa are some of our favorites. It is always a delight to dine with them!
