The most delicious authentic italian food. All of the staff is incredibly welcoming and makes you feel so special. Incredibly nice place to go for an italian meal on the UES. Probably the best veal parmesan I’ve ever had and the tiramisu is just phenomenal.

Tonight everything we ordered was utterly tasteless...the soup, the salad, the pasta. Couldn't even eat more than a few bites. At a previous visit in November, some of the same dishes were good. Tonight, it was as if they pulled a homeless chef in off the street and make him cook without the right ingredients. A lot of money to waste on inedible food. Won't be back.

This place used to be wonderful! The food has gotten stingy and the prices are higher. They served me a cold Dover sole the size of a Sunny for $65. They have also become empty of late. Sad!

Highly disappointed in this restaurant. Save your money (its way over priced) and spend it somewhere more welcoming and flavorful. We planned on having dinner across the street but it was closed for a private event, this restaurant looked like a promising staple in the neighborhood. We were a party of 8. From the moment we walked in, nothing but glaring looks and one waiter asking why so many people. After being sat and waiting a few minutes for the waiter, we asked him from menus and he rudely said we'd get menus after we order drinks. It seemed out of sorts but we were going w the flow as visitors. After getting drinks and menus we asked to.place an order for appetizers, nope...we couldn't order those until we were ready to order all our dinner entrees. The food was bland, warm - not hot, freshly made, and we didn't get any drink refills. The atmosphere was dark and moody for great conversation but the food and service was awful. This was our lowest restaurant experience in NYC. I'm so glad we didnt let this hinder our visit as we had a much better experience with warm hospitality and authentic food in Little Italy and at Mezzaluna.

Great, old school Italian place in the heart of the UES. Good menu with lots of specials. Professional service with charming (if a little older) atmosphere. Lovely experience with nice preparation (could use a bump up of flavor level).

Great little restaurant. Stumble onto it by accident. The food and service were both impeccable. It has a real old school vibe to it. Really enjoyed!
Old school Italian restaurant. Wait staff was very attentive. Pesto pasta was delicious.

Used to be great. No longer …Staff is rude! Food is mediocre. We used to eat here often years ago. But now it’s an unpleasant experience.Btw, the cost check person stole my Hermes scarf years ago.Since that time, I keep my coat with me…But. Honestly. I only go to this place if my dinner partner wants to.

Very premium experience. Feels like a local spot for regulars, as well as friendly for newcomers. The experience starts with them, taking your coat at the door, something you don’t see too often anymore.Upon sitting, there was a bread basket at my table, with a block of butter and a variety of breads and crackers. The table had a nice cloth, and the room was dimly lit, but bright enough to see who you are dining with.I always have to get the chicken parm! Definitely didn’t disappoint here. The chicken was a nice thickness with good coating. This sauce and cheese worked well. Above average overall. It doesn’t come with any pasta so I added some penne with an Arrabiata sauce. They brought out some green beans which may come with the entrée or just get served to everybody as a seasonal vegetable.For dessert I got the ricotta cheesecake. Unfortunately, this wasn’t amazing. A bit dry not a ton of flavor. Next time I would try something else.The service here was A+. People, attentive and filling waters, as well as getting anything that you would want or need within a few seconds. Always with a smile on their face.
