Yummy pastas, a bit squishy! Go at opening to get a table.
Tiny spot with FANTASTIC homemade pasta!
This place is such a gem! You can tell their pasta is homemade and no frills. Their beef ragu was so dense with flavor and paired so well with the delicate pappardelle noodles!
In terms of the space, the restaurant is tiny and kind of cramped but the decor and vibes are adorable (LOVE the ice cream poster!).
Also we came on a Friday night around 7 and had to wait ~20 minutes but the line was way longer when we left around 8:30 PM. Overall- a cute quintessential WV spot!

It was ok. Space is very tight, so to get to some tables you have to squeeze between other people eating. And I mean really squeeze. Some tables had to put their food on a stool nearby cause the table wouldn’t fit it.
Bread before dinner comes in a small paper bag, like those lunch bags. Bread itself was a bit stale and not warm.
I had the duck ragu as the main dish, and it was… ok? Like any other pasta, and definitely not al dente - but I guess that’s up to taste. Piggy cheeks were tasty.
Service was great. Despite small space we didn’t need to wait so that was nice.
So overall - ok food, but won’t come back
Kid-friendliness: Don’t think it’s kid friendly? Would be hard to sit as a family and space too tight
Wheelchair accessibility: I don’t think there’s a step but the spaces are too tight for even 2 people to walk

The food is just ok, nothing special, def overpriced. But what really bothered me was when the waiter came so we could pay the bill, we split it two ways. My friend was the first one who paid and didn't realize you tip first and then you pay after on the machine. She did not leave a tip, and the waiter immediately looked and starting asking her 'why no tip? It wasn't good?' It was truly uncomfortable. Firstly, tips are optional. The food wasn't crazy good or anything like that. Second, how does the waiter know is she maybe tipping by cash, maybe it's not a credit card tip? Maybe I am covering the tip? Truly rude and very annoying experience. I live a few minutes away and will never be returning.
Felt like I was transported back to Italy it’s small & quant. Were they the best pasta dishes ive had in the city ? No. BUT it revivals Italy on the truffle sauce. The bread was stale and old served in a bag? My friend got the ragu & it lacked flavor. (Maybe the day?) She didn’t finish it & they proceeded to make comments in the back in Italian. Which with how small it is yes we understood. Very back & forth on the review positives & negatives. But I felt I also annoyed the waiter by not ordering the wine. I did not enjoy that they start it out on the table. Felt pressured.

Extremely rude server, kept calling me and my friend “catzo” because we didn’t want to sit next to a scolding pipe. Unfortunately the great good gets ruined by the server.

super cute little gem in the west village. the food was absolutely delicious and it came out impressingly quick. you could tell the staff wanted you in and out quickly as there was a line since this restaurant doesn't take reservations - the east village one does though. my friends and i waited around 45 minutes but it was incredibly worth it!

Very small restaurant, with a long wait to get a table. the food is ok, however nothing exceptional especially for the truffle pasta small quantity, quality/price ratio not justified except that the pasta is fresh. Not comfortable eating, tables on top of each other.

the smallest restaurant I’ve ever been to- the waiters kept bumping into me and the table was so so small. then, we felt pressured by the waiter to order an appetizer and when we went with his suggestion I felt a bit scammed. It was $25 for 2 small pieces of sausage. The worst part is it was in the plainest sense- mid.
Now for the pasta, I liked the fresh ingredients and noodle texture but I think I expected more flavor.
Wouldn’t come here again but it’s worth a try when you need to eat somewhere without reservation.
