This is a pleasant little restaurant with a friendly, efficient staff. My food was tasty, not a rave, but certainly not a disappointment. I’d go back.

I have been eating here for years, mostly at Brunch. We recently went for dinner because AARP offers a discount in partnership with the restaurant. Yet when the check came in, the server refused to accept it. No solid explanation, nothing, just a “we don’t do that”. I called AARP and confirmed they are still at partnership. I don’t understand, my friends and I are regulars, we tipped well. And for us to be treated like this? It’s not even the small discount money, it’s the principle of all of it. I hope the restaurant management is happy that they’re losing potentially a dozen clients just for being petty. Never going back, neither are most people that I used to go with. Good luck with the Manhattan rents when continuously losing clients. Soon they will join all those empty locales around.

I went here with my boyfriend and have been a customer in general prior to going with him. They really failed at customer service for a regular. They promised a two top low table and then made us wait long and gave a different more uncomfortable table. They forgot our drinks and had to comp my boyfriend’s cappuccino as they never brought his out at all and only mine after reminding them. Extremely unpleasant and dismissive waiter and busser and I will not be returning. Also my french toast was burnt. Unacceptable.

Clean well-lit space. Other than that not worth the time. We ordered calamari, pumpkin ravioli, and brussel sprouts. The calamari was FRIED and very chewy, and the marinara didn’t make it any better. The pumpkin ravioli had no flavor, and tasted like it was boiled from the box. The most egregious of all however, was the green-greyish soggy excuse of a vegetable that was the “brussel sprouts”. I’m being honest when I say I would never have served that in my own home. The fact the espresso martinis we ordered tasted like watered down iced coffee that had been melting for hours was truly the icing on the cake. Save yourself the hassle AND THE MONEY and do not go.

It is a nice place and the waiters were really nice. Their pizza was not good. My wife liked the creamy pasta but I also didn't like their pasta. Also Pizza Prosciutto was 20$ on the menu but when the receipt came it was 25$.
Food was 3/5 Service 5/5

Food was terrible. Got an avocado toast with an egg. The egg was fine, the avocado tasted like it was made by sabra. All the delicious strangely lemony preservatives. The bread added nothing to the meal. My wife got the eggs with veggies and capers (Shikshuka or something?) it was overcooked, had absolutely no sense of harmony in the dish. The capers were little salt bombs that made it mostly inedible and we both like capers and anchovies so I don’t know where these came from. We didn’t finish our food and went home disappointed. Ambiance was fine, music wasn’t our taste. Service was relatively inattentive but nothing terrible. Took about 8 minutes to get the check so we could get out of there. Didn’t want to give us one of their empty tables and wanted us to sit in one of their less comfortable chairs to save the nicer table for someone else(?) Food destroyed the experience. Recommend eating anywhere else. It was also no where near cheap enough to give it a try for the heck of it. Really no redeeming qualities here. Don’t understand the positive reviews. Maybe it was a super off day but I won’t be finding that out with my money.

MY ORDER : biscottti (chocolate) And almond cookies.
I came inside for an ice latte (coffee beverage) and a snack… they didn’t have any plastic togo cups so I had to use the hot coffee large cup(which is fine). Overall the seating is limited because majority of the seating area is for dinner guest only so they have bar stools and benches for “quick bites in and out guest”. Overall I’m having a peaceful time at this restaurant before I call it a day. The staff are professional and nice . Great customer service ! I would probably bring my family here for brunch and what not.
This place was great and the staff was just all around amazing.
I had a lemoncello spritz which was delicious and a caramelized onion and cauliflower pizza, which was different but so damn good.
We then had some cookies not sure what they were but they were absolutely addictive.
If you find yourself in this area check this place out!

The food was so delicious, especially the peach mixed salad! I’m not sure if the salad is seasonal but if they still have it on the menu def give it a try!! The NA spritz were also good, but the lemon one (she bites) is very bitter so be mindful of that when ordering. I think the service could have been better and more attentive. We were seated on a small corner table outside and did feel forgotten often even though all the other tables around us got consistent service. But besides that I’d recommend trying this restaurant for a yummy meal with njce ambiance in the heart of Harlem.

We went for brunch. The people who opted for food off of the lunch menu were very happy with their meals. The Italian twist on American breakfast standards was hit or miss. Avoid the cannoli pancakes.
