We absolutely love this restaurant! Great food and staff!
The best way to describe this restaurant is that it’s like a warm hug. The owners Jose and Giselle have mastered the combination of great food and the best hospitality you can imagine. The menu is a beautiful combination of different types of dishes and they have a perfect wine and beer menu to match. Do not leave without ordering their gelato. This is a perfect spot to have lunch or dinner and enjoy their cozy interior.
Best meal we've had in months. Restaurant week, so you get 3 choices app/main and dessert for $29. A bargain. I had a salad and husband had a salad with calamari, and said it was as good as what he had in Nice, France. Lunch was a steak sandwich, delic, I had a pizza, delic and apple strudel with gelato for dessert. Lovely outdoor area heated, very friendly staff, and can't wait to go back for a lobster roll. Honestly, you couldn't beat this meal or atmosphere.
Beautiful, cozy & intimate atmosphere. Went there last night and had the tortellini pasta. It was phenomenal! Im inclined to say it was the best pasta Ive ever had.
I visited this restaurant for the first time to celebrate a friend’s birthday with a group of 14 people. From the moment we arrived, the service was excellent. The staff was very friendly and attentive, making the experience enjoyable. The restaurant is clean and beautifully decorated, with a cute and cozy atmosphere. Plus, its riverside location makes it even more charming.
Food & Drinks
When it was time to order drinks, I asked for a vodka on the rocks, but the server told me they weren’t serving alcohol yet, which was frustrating. However, they did have a great selection of wines, which was a nice alternative.
As for the food, most of my friends ordered veal, which was delicious and cooked perfectly. Unfortunately, my experience was different. I ordered a Margherita pizza, and honestly, it was terrible—dry and flavorless. My husband had the fish, which was bland, tasteless, and the portion was very small.
Final Thoughts
📍 A nice spot for a date, thanks to its great ambiance and location, but the food didn’t impress me.
💰 Expensive: A dinner for two can cost between $120 and $150.
✅ Outstanding service, but the food didn’t meet my expectations.
I’m not sure if I would return, but if you’re looking for a restaurant with a nice atmosphere and great service, it might be worth a try.
Can't wait to go back
Delicious food and great service the wood fire pizza was amazing
Party of 4 adults and a child under 13 for dinner. We were greeted, seated and offered beverages as expected. We then sat unattended for 45 minutes. Wanting another drink but no one came. Water glasses empty but no one came. No bread on the table... Finally the food arrives and it is fantastic. Truly above average and almost worth $32 for a plate of macaroni. Still no one checked in or asked about our drinks. Yet, the place was empty except for 3 other tables. When the $220 bill came, it included A 20% GRATUITY OF $36!! I tip, I tip 20% and more when the service is great. THE SERVICE WAS ABYSMAL! AND I WAS FORCED TO PAY A 20% TIP BECAUSE WE WERE A PARTY OVER 4 PEOPLE (our fifth being an 11 year old)! I WILL NEVER GO HERE AGAIN!
Update - we were craving the food. We caved and decided to go again, knowing the service was bad but willing to deal with it because the food is so good. We weren't disappointed. The food takes time because it is prepared to order. This time, the restaurant was full and the service was very good. I've upped my stars but so not approved of the added gratuity for parties larger than four. Maybe double that.

What a special find. Delightful Italian restaurant with amazing food and wonderful service. Our lunch was fabulous and the meatballs appetizer was like no other meatball preparation I have ever been served - Polpette Al Caccio E Pepe - deliziosa!
The location is wonderful with beautiful water views. We will be back

8/28/24 Frutti di Mare was awful. Very minimal amount of fruit of the sea in this dish, could only find shrimp with a heavy doughy gnocchi noodle. My husband and I often order Frutti di Mare in restaurants and this was totally unlike any other restaurant. Very very pricy for this dish that was mostly gnocchi noodle. Very disappointing. Red wine was terrible. No bread. There were tiny gnats flying around table.

What a hidden gem this place is! The food is incredible, freshly made, and not overly seasoned. All the food is prepped in the kitchen that is visible from the dining area. The restaurant is clean and welcoming. The service is incredible as well. We feel at home here. We come with our 11 month old and they are always so accommodating. I highly recommend this place to anyone. It has a beautiful outdoor area as well. I’ve tried some of the other restaurants on the water and they are hit or miss this place is solid every time. Thank you :)!

Taste of food was excellent however for the price per entre was not worth it. No salad or bread. The Gnocci was excellent but next to no seafood in the dish. One or two small shrimp, two tiny pieces of lobster and a few strings of shredded crab meat.
Awesome Italian food by the Hudson, had the steak sandwich and mushroom pizza with a glass of wine and enjoyed the view. 10/10
