The best kept secret in Midtown Manhattan!!! Excellent fresh food, real Italian not I-talian, unexpectedly impressive wine and bier list … and from the first time you return go Gianluca, Luis or Pierpaolo make you fee at home …. I will never again go elsewhere for a good casual Italian meal in Midtown East. You cannot go wrong!!!

I’m from Philly. We appreciate well prepared non pretentious food. Whenever I am on the east side of NY. I go here. Sometimes I go on multiple days to just sample the menu.

A friend and I meandered in here tonight after a few other places didn’t work out. It was fantastic! The food was fresh and tasty, kind service, and the vibe was cozy and warm. And, very affordable. This is a gem and I will be stopping in again soon!

Had dinner here 2 days in a row. 10/10 in every way, with a great selection of wine, a cozy atmosphere, and an amazing owner. My husband, who’s vegan, also had a great time here. So happy to find this restaurant <3

We came for dinner on a Friday and the service was very friendly. Got a bit slow and unattentive towards the end and our food took a long time to arrive (it wasn't very busy).
We ordered 4 pastas. The carbonara was very disappointing, just tasted like salty cheese sauce. The gnocchi was enjoyable, but the highlights were the parapadelle ragout and lasagna (it's small).
But be warned, serving sizes are quite small. (They also charge much less than other places so maybe you get what you pay for).

Oh what a lively spot!!!! We were bouncing between different restaurants near by, looking for some fun spot to have a dinner at. This one hit it all! The food, the atmosphere, the service! Everything is so lovely! Our server was so sweet, I absolutely live when my server is friendly and talkative, it makes me feel like I’m being taken care of. And the owner is very sweet too, he told us a lot about his business. Food was delicious! We had some meat balls as an appetizer, they were absolutely delicious! Pasta was great! I loved everything about this dinner. Will definitely be back!

Cozy spot with a warm, inviting vibe. Everything we ordered was delicious—the rigatoni ragù, lemon linguine, and salads were all great. Happy hour is a fantastic deal: order two glasses of wine and you get small plates like pasta, bruschetta, and cheese. Desserts were also a highlight—the panna cotta and chocolate mousse were both excellent. Would definitely come back!

We went here for a birthday dinner as it was quite local to our hotel. The food was excellent and the service was very friendly and good
Tiny space, cozy atmosphere, delicious food, incredible service. Felt very cozy while also being very reasonably priced.
