as beautifully grilled as the octopus was, it could never make up for the paper-thin polenta it got served with. there wasn't any side available on the menu to compensate for the 3 by 2 inch rectangular polenta, which violated all common decency. i couldn't catch sleep over how egregiously scammed i felt.

First time I came it was so good. Atmosphere and vibes are so cute and the food is pretty good. Second time I came there was a dead bug on our plate so requested a new one. idk if they got new waiters but they had such a bad attitude about it but why would we eat off of a dirty plate with a dead bug on it? And then the water glass was so dirty that there was a white ring around it and again I requested a new one and again, horrible attitude about it. The appetizer came before our water even. Just horrible customer service and cleanliness was a 1/10. Only giving 3 stars because food was pretty good and vibes are cute. Will not be returning tho hahah

The best gluten free pizza ever!! All the other food we had was amazing also, and the ambiance was perfect- busy and rustic.

Maybe i just got unlucky. But my boyfriend and i got food from here, for a cute date night, and we both got sick. Gave some pizza crust to our dog and he also got sick. Luckily we didnt eat a whole lot of it bc it Didnt really taste good. The pizza was SO bland and hard to chew. We tried everything to make it taste better too. Weve been here before and it wasnt this bad. Maybe change the sauce yall idk. Were just now feeling better after eating this the night before last. Be careful. We probably wont be back just bc we dont wanna risk it again ):

An excellent pizza indeed! I loved the margherita, it was absolutely a proper Neapolitan one!

Great food but just know if you’re a person of color, you’re sitting outside. They’ll tell you there’s no seating but just get up to use the bathroom inside and you’ll see the array of seating they refuse to sit you at. This wasn’t a one time thing either I’ve come multiple times and they ALWAYS sit us outside. Hot or cold. With or without kids.

I am obsessed with this place. I’d gatekeep it if I could but it seems that other people already know about it. I live for their brunch menu and their dinner menu. I love the blueberry pancakes for brunch and the tuna carpaccio for a dinner starter is amazing. Try this place if you love great food, good vibes and Italian food.
Hate to say this as a longtime Saraghina fan, but the quality here has gone so far downhill over the past year. The new menu is lacking, and the food is overpriced (at this rate, I'd rather just go someplace like Daphne's). Got the carrot salad and rigatoni recently and the salad was sour without anything to cut the bitterness, while the rigatoni was CHEWY and there was barely any meat in it for a tiny bowl that cost me like $30.
Edit: During the chaotic service that night, I was charged twice (once for my meal and then another time for a completely different order). I had to follow up several times to get the charge completely refunded.

A cute place with outdoor seating in the front and back. The capocollo, salcissia, and ortolano personal pizzas are amazingly delicious and reasonably priced. Our server, Eli, was very personable, friendly, and fun. The mango passion sorbet was out of this world, and the tiramisu and cherry cheesecake were also fabulous. The atmosphere was cozy with fun decor. I would go again and take guests.

Great pizza place! The food we had was incredibly tasty and ready very quickly. We went there several times during our stay in NYC and got pizzas to take away. Highly recommended!

We had a problem with the accessibility. We showed up on a cold evening and was offered a spot in the enclosed outdoor area or we could wait for a seat inside. Since my wife is in a wheelchair with stage 4 cancer, sitting in the outdoor area was not possible since the only accessible spot was near the door which would be opening and closing constantly and she would be cold. They told us to come back in 45 minutes, and upon returning, my wife was offered the end of a long table that had cross beams preventing her from getting her knees under the table so she could sit close enough to eat. The position also put her in the way of a neighboring round table, blocking the access of patrons sitting there. We left and haven't been back since.
The other problem is how it was handled when I brought it up to the manager (Angel). I decided to finally call and let them know what happened and simply asked that they make sure the staff knows about accessibility. I really expected something like "thank you for the heads up, I will make sure the staff knows, and sorry for your bad experience". But instead I got a lot of "our staff knows" (obviously they didn't) and "you should see the seating we have now in the warmer weather" (what has that got to do with anything?)

Very overrated. Spent too much. House red wine was pretty good but the food was nothing special. I don’t make pizza at home but the other food I could make less complicatedly but just as good or better. Based on one visit. Had fun. Tiramisu dessert is not actually tiramisu and the pasta’s not great, just regular pasta and sauce, slightly upscale, I suppose. I think a big piece of bread is $6. Would have been happy if the prices were halved.
