“This placed saved my a** last night . Me and my family are not exactly into football but we do enjoy gathering every year and watching the superbowl , it has become a tradition , and every year I usually make wings , this year since a wingstop opened in my area I figured I'd take the day off and order..I mean wing stop should be up to the task right? This is probably their biggest day of the year , they must be all prepped and ready to go right? WRONG!!! No F'n wingstops were excepting delivery orders and my other option atomic wings was charging ridiculous prices for limited options. Whats a guy to do? Off to yelp I go ..searched wings near me and this place came up, I had never heard of it but I decided to roll the dice and take my chances and im glad I did. After placing my order I nervously waited to hear it was canceled ..but no, we seemed to be ok , we were getting our wings . The wings came quickly , hot and fresh but now the moment of truth ..opening the packages ..and damn they looked and smelled great, they weren't kidding about them being jumbo wings either , they were thick like 50 at the half time show! We got parmasan ,mango habenaro (my favorite..they are hot!) Thai chilli and plain all of them were great! We got ranch dressing with everything since im the only one that likes blue cheese and it was good and homemade , they also provided us with a TON of carrots and celery free of charge where wingstop charged me a couple bucks for 3 wilted celery stalks and carrot sticks. I cant speak to the rest of their food..yet , but the wings are excellent and I may have a new superbowl tradition now. Thanks guys“
“Great Italian food and a decent menu, not much choice but not too much. It's located next to Post Office 34 and is very trendy. The view and service are great, but it's noisy as there isn't much to absorb the sound. We ordered focaccia, roasted peppers and pasta. Everything is great and super fresh.“
“We were fortunate enough to bag an early lunch here after sitting on the waiting list for weeks, and so glad we got in today.The food, service and overall experience was simply outstanding.It certainly lives up to any hype and is totally justified.If you are visiting the city and luckily enough to secure a table, you won’t be disappointed.Outstanding team Torrisi…“
“Solid food and good ambiance. Good for a date or to catch up with friends.A friend and I got the tuna tartare, uni spaghetti, and broccolini to share since we weren’t too hungry. Each dish did not miss.Service was friendly but if I can be picky, I think the amount of times my water was filled was a little excessive and at times distracted me from conversations with my friend ??♀️“
“Tried the TikTok viral restaurant. It used to be a Michelin one-star in 2021 and 2022. Although it has lost its Michelin star last year, I still think it’s my favorite Italian restaurant in NYC so far. Had a fantastic experience here!The salad turned out to be a game-changer. As someone who typically shies away from salads, Don Angie's version won me over with its unique flavors and freshness. Each bite was a testament to the restaurant's commitment to excellence.Don Angie lived up to its viral acclaim. My friend and I walked in at 9:15 pm, and we got seated in 20 minutes!! Strongly recommend this way of dining.“
“The hype is real. Went on a Saturday afternoon and the wait was an hour and a half. The neighborhood is so cute with lots of shops, coffee and a park nearby so that kept us busy. Pizza was delicious, service 5 stars and the ambiance can’t be beat.“
“Got the square pie and it didn’t disappoint! Great sauce, perfect crunch on the bottom, killer flavor on the cheese and pep! Seriously an awesome place for pizza if you need a break from NYC thin crust. The rest of the food looked great and I hope I get to try it soon!“
“I had Veniero's make our wedding cake, and the entire process was truly amazing! Everyone was so professional and friendly. We ordered the cake and also pastries. Delivery was seamless, and of course, everything was absolutely delicious!“
“i feel like this may be perceived as rude but i think when a restaurant is very popular it is important to say. if you are finished with dessert and you see that there is a line of people waiting to be seated please ask for your check and continue your date at the bar around the corner. anyways, taylor swift knows how to pick a strong restaurant. we enjoyed everything we ate here! to start we ordered the carrots which were a very generous portion, although they were very expensive so i guess they were a fair portion. for entrees we ordered the prosciutto and parmigiana pasta and the skate. the skate was good, nice and lemony which we enjoyed. the pasta was the star, it was so creamy and the prosciutto added a salty element. for dessert we got the panna cotta which was good but not great, i probably wouldn’t order it again. the zabaglione was amazing, the raspberries were so fresh and i absolutely loved it. the atmosphere is cute and rustic my only complaint is that it’s a little cramped because the restaurant gets so busy. the food is very good but the only downside is that it’s so expensive although i guess that’s because a lot of famous people dine here. our server was sweet but very very slow, it took us 20 minutes to put an order in and all around the process was very slow, we were here for 2 1/2 hours after being seated. i would still go back but i don’t think it’s worth stressing over a reservation or waiting in a walk-up line. if you happen to get blessed by resy notifs then i think it’s worth it.“
“A lovely Italian trattoria with an enormous enclosed back garden. Delicious pastas and good house wines at reasonable prices. It's not ground breaking but the food is well prepared and presented. All the service is top tier from the host to the waiters to the bussing staff. Recommended if you're in the area.“
“I got the chance to have lunch at Misi with my girlfriend on our most recent trip to NYC. The reservations get booked pretty quickly but I put myself on the Resy waitlist and spots opened up fairly frequently (especially for lunch).We started with the whipped ricotta crostini and the grilled broccoli. I absolutely loved the crostini. Nice crispy bread, soft, airy ricotta, a nice umami contrast from the mushrooms and a little extra richness from the olive oil. The broccoli was also quite good, with a little hint of spice and some nice textural contrasts with the provolone and the breadcrumbs, but the crostini was definitely the highlight.For mains, I had the spinach and mascarpone tortelli, while my girlfriend had the chitarra with braised lamb. Both were delicious. The tortelli was served in a rich browned butter sauce with ricotta salata. This is a simple classic that reminded me of dishes I've had elsewhere, but here the simplicity really accentuated the quality of the daily freshly hand-made pasta and the other ingredients. I would definitely order this dish again.The chitarra with braised lamb took things to a completely different level. I was initially expecting a fairly straightforward tomato-based pasta with lamb, but one bite proved me wrong. In this dish again, the quality of the fresh pasta really shined. The sauce was rich (it tasted like a sauce that's been cooked down for hours and hours), and the lamb definitely added some flavor to the sauce, without being overpowering. The lamb itself was extremely tender and served throughout the pasta pulled-apart style. The only caveat food-wise was that the chitarra was a bit too salty for my girlfriend's taste, but that did not detract from the overall quality of the food.For desert, the only options were gelato, although there were several different flavors to choose from. We elected to share the pistachio one, and it was good, but compared to all the food we had just eaten, it was pretty unremarkable. This is one area where I would've liked to see a few non-gelato options.The service was great. I'm not talking Michelin star level, but all of the service staff was super friendly and attentive. Our waitress was able to recommend a non-alcoholic drink that was off-menu for my girlfriend.As for the ambiance, it was quite nice, although I wouldn't say it was my favorite. On the pros side, it is an open-kitchen concept, which I always appreciate in restaurants. We were not seated at the bar but I think it would be a very fun place to sit and watch the kitchen in action. Opposite the kitchen is where they make the pasta (in a room with glass walls), so it's also very interesting to watch the pasta making team in action.Almost every surface is painted white, with lots of stainless-steel surfaces. Even the bathrooms were spotless and had a real candle burning inside (a nice touch). The space overall is extremely nice, but the fact there is so much white (minus a few plants and books sprinkled here and there) feels a bit dry rather than cosy, welcoming or romantic. (I guess that fits with what lots of people think of NYC.)We spent around 2 hours in the restaurant, and that felt perfect for all the food we ate. Price-wise, 2 apps, 2 mains and 2 drinks came out to $137. I would happily pay that price again.Overall, Misi is a great spot for a nice lunch or dinner. 5/5“
“Experience Lucciola – NYC's finest Italian dining! Immerse yourself in the exceptional 9-course tasting menu, enhanced by expertly chosen wines. Chef Michele crafts each dish with unmatched skill, presenting masterpieces of Italian cuisine. For unparalleled value and a remarkable culinary adventure, Lucciola is your destination.“
“Decided on this place for a business lunch a few weeks ago and I must say, I was pleasantly surprised by the ambiance and food. The lunch portions were more than reasonable as was the pricing. For a dinner lunch, it is definitely a bit less formal due to the seating arrangements, but for a casual client lunch, this spot was pretty great. I'd definitely go here with my team or on my own as it was worth the visit.“
“Could not say more positive things about this place - they had an extensive drink menu with well balanced cocktails and yummy food. My fiancé had been searching for chocolate pecan pie this past holiday season with no luck, so we were overjoyed to find out that they had it. The vibes were splendid and service was fantastic. I can’t wait to come back.“
“Fun food hall and mercantile for all. Great if you have multiple people looking for different types of food, looking for a fun higher-end casual date night, or dividing and conquering to go find yummy takeout to go enjoy with a group out on Pier 17.Plenty of tasty options, fresh ingredients, and NYC goodies to purchase.“
“You have to remember that when you dine in a Michelin star you will be paying a big price for tiny portions. So all that aside the food itself was truly amazing. You must get the gnocchi fritto. The bread is pillowy soft, not greasy at all and pairs so well with the salty proscuitto. I was most excited about the uovo ravioli and tbh it was a bit disappointing but I think this was just a personal preference because of all accts it should be a perfect dish. You need to be prepared to go all out because otherwise you will leave hungry.“
“The drinks were so delicious and the food was good but the flatbread with prosciutto I would recommend.The atmosphere was so cute, you can see the kitchen from the dining area and on the wall there is seating on one side and swings on the other which was really cool touch. The bathroom is also super cute and there is a little barrel with a foot pedal outside the bathroom in case you just need to wash your hands.“
“I was so excited to finally be able to be able to eat here as it's been on my list for so long! When we first arrived, the hostess was a bit rude and short with us when explaining that everyone in our party needed to be there prior to being seated. After we were seated, however, the experience was nothing short of incredible. Our waitress, Lydia, provided some wine recommendations based on what we told her we were looking for, and they were perfect. She walked us through the entire menu, giving us her top picks from each section. Among 5 people, we split the pear crostone, the spaghetti, the tagliatelle, the crab squid ink pasta, and the cacio e peppe, along with the roasted chicken and the crispy potatoes and Brussels sprouts. The group agreed that the roasted chicken was one of the best things any of us had ever eaten. In terms of pasta, my personal favorite was the tagliatelle, but the crab squid ink pasta was another fan favorite. The Brussels were delicious, and the potatoes were cooked so perfectly. To finish, we shared the chocolate chip cinnamon cookies and the salted chocolate cake which were both to die for. Thank you so much to Lydia (and the chef of course!) for making this experience so memorable for us!!!“
“Excellent food and service. I am a visitor in NYC and was referred to the restaurant by friends who had all good things to say about their experience. We are so happy we went there for dinner. The duck was delicious. The pasta was delicious, the sauce was sooo good. We will be back again. Definitely would recommend this restaurant. As an added plus, Gabriele greets his customers, and that made it extra special when he checked in on our table.“
“Came to L'incontro for a casual lunch on a Saturday around 2p. Did not have a reservation and was immediately seated. I gotta say, the service was excellent! Many waiters were serving us and they were constantly checking if we needed something. They were refilling out waters all the time and it was just very polite. What was interesting is the "daily special menu", the waiter was standing their reading about the daily special for like at least 5 mins and we had to stop him from continuing. Either way, we got the bucatini cacio e pepe and it was very yummy. My husband got the veal and it was not the most photogenic dish, but tasted much better than it looked. We also got the octopus, which was soaked in balsamic, also very nice. Overall a very nice traditional Italian place.“
“Celeste has been a neighborhood gem for more years than I can remember. Love the ricotta-stuffed zucchini flowers when they are in season. I am a sucker for the ricotta and spinach ravioli. Best of all is ordering their cheese plate at the end and listening to the owner, Carmine, describe each piece of cheese, its origins and background, and each condiment. Sheer poetry!“
“We spontaneously got a place - reservations are recommended. Seating is rather tight, please pay attention to the volume when the restaurant is full. More authentic Italian cuisine. Taken on its own, it tastes very good. Service friendly and accommodating.“
“Lobster saffron risotto was yummy. Hubby’s red shrimp spaghetti was apparently rather salty for his liking but this is NY. We find NYC’s food quite salty compared to our food back home.Concierge was very kind to offer us a glass of bubbly. We were severely jet lagged and needed somewhere to quickly grab our supper. So we went to this place as it was near from our hotel. It is not the cheapest restaurant in NYC but food quality (lobster was cooked perfectly), service by Genara and Concierge made our dining experience so memorable.The only downside was the restaurant has two dining areas and we were seated in the most inner part. It was highly rowdy..! I wanted a quieter/ more intimate ambience as the restaurant oozes out this romantic atmosphere. Maybe next time?Will def return.“
“Isabelle was the BEST waitress a customer can ask for. My group came for a birthday dinner, and she and her colleagues went above and beyond to make sure we were accommodated and had a good time. The service A1, food we DELICIOUS, and vibes immaculate. Will def recommend to friends and return- Ayaan’s bday“
“I love this place. My grandchildren ask to go for the brick oven pizza, chicken Milanese, meatball and spaghetti with lemon.Alessandro handles the bar beautifully and Sara is a lovely server. They run a professional and very friendly place. Food is terrific and they go the extra mile for families.“
“Hands down best fettuccine Alfredo I’ve ever had, as well as the best red sauce on the lobster ravioli. The atmosphere was immaculate, with classic Italian music playing outside over the patio. The service was some of the best I’ve ever had in a restaurant. The food was cheap for lunch. However, dinner options are around $20-$30 per person. We were looking for somewhere to eat and many waiters were asking us to dine at their establishments as we walked through the neighborhood. We were drawn in by Mr. Ayman and one of the waiters. Mr. Ayman was an excellent, gracious host who truly cared about his service and food. If you’re in Little Italy you have many restaurants to choose from. Be sure to choose L’Amore.“
“Old world styled service crafted for enjoyment & delivered to perfection. Superb Italian food w several preparations table-side. White table cloths & candles but not stuffy. We were lively and had a super memorable time. Table of 8. We will be back. Highly recommend East side location now on 46th street between 2 & 3. $$$“
“probably the best pizza in new york city. the food was great, we tried 3 different options (and yes, we exchanged slices), they were all to die for. we ordered the spinaci salad and it was the best salad i’ve ever had. note: one salad is not enough to share since it is so good.“
“I was up and down about buying this pizza because of the cost...HOWEVER, I thought I'd give it a try. It arrived today...Man. REAL PIZZA after 20 years of being GF. It was delicious! I've order online frozen items (cookies, pizza, apps etc) before and this was, by far, the best delivery result. Frozen solid, minimal waste and even the GF taramisu I was nervous about experienced no thawing. It was supposed to be for someone else but oops, so good my taste testing went a bit too far. What taramisu?? :) I ordered 3 GF pizzas and have only tried the sausage and mushroom so far. The crust edge was crispy on the outside and soft in the middle while the pizza itself cooked up nicely. I like mine a bit well done and even doing so, the toppings didn't burn. My ONLY complaint was it needed a bit more sauce for my personally liking and because it was fresh and tasty, I wanted more. Maybe a side to dip my crust in?? What? Yes. Great job Kreste!“
“I came for the pizza but the dish that really caught my eye and took my heart was the Fire and Ice, stracciatella with chorizo and what I assume is a delicious homemade bread. Of course the pizza (Bee sting) was very tasty as well. The place is cool, nice atmosphere. New favorite spot in bushwick.“
“The pistachio pasta is the best. The Portugese octopus appetizer was just as good as Europe and the beet salad was the perfect mix of soft cheese and flavor. One of the teenagers had the pasta with the fries procutto and pecorino cheese, it was also just as good as the pistachio pasta. It was full even at 8p for our reservation so either reserve or visit as a smaller party to get seated easily.“
“Our dishes were good. The truffle cream pasta was delicious. I had the chicken Parm which was really good but the pasta with red sauce was bland. Service was great but expect you will sitting close strangers. That's not too big of a deal. Cool place “
“Why does this place not have a Michelin star or two?? Seriously…the food was outstanding, and the service the best we had in NYC. Authentic high end Italian cuisine. I’d go back every week if I lived anywhere close by. Do not hesitate to try this delightful place out. You won’t regret it.“
“The food was spectacular. Our server, hostess, barmaid and valet were truly the best. They all deserve to be recognized on great customer service. The hostess came to our table well after we paid and asked us politely if we wouldn't mind moving to the bar. I understood the reasoning for this completely. The manner in which this was done was very professional. I know there are people that have a problem with this. We are not one of those. It's all in the way it is handled which was very professional. We did go to the bar and the staff was kind enough to offer us a drink for understanding. We were pleasantly surprised by this and very grateful. We appreciated the parking instructions sent by the restaurant. It made it so much easier knowing in advance what to expect. We made a long trip from Long Island and look forward to returning.“
“Looking for some excellent classic southern Italian food? Old school, right out of a movie with waiters in tuxedos and decor from over 50 years ago. Fantastic chicken parm, mussels, eggplant rollatini. It’s been around since 1900 so they must be doing something right. Come down to Brooklyn and make sure you have a reservation. They do have valet parking too.#hollyshotspots“
“All was so incredible - food, service, vibe of the restaurant, all were 10/10. We got so many delicious dishes but our favorites were the cacio e pepe and the chicken parm smothered in vodka sauce (what’s not to love about that???). Would recommend going, and we’ll ABSOLUTELY be back!“
“I really wanted to love this place but it wasn't quite there.Pros: breads and dips are great. Highly recommend. Knocked it out of the park hereCons: our pasta was way over salted. Maybe it's a one off but it made it hard to enjoy. Atmosphere is ok. The place has good bones but the designer didn't get a number of things right (e.g. artwork doesn't quite work with the space, table and chairs could have been better selected, floor is an odd choice). It's still a decent atmosphere but they could do a lot more with their space if they had the right designer“
“La Lanterna is dimly lit, small, and incredibly Italian. They have various lasagnes, drinks, and paninis with focaccia. And all of these things come together for an incredibly fun environment that I want to experience again and again with all of my friends and family!“
“A beautiful restaurant! There are so many options and delicious plates to choose from. We've had the Lumache alla Vodka, rosemary pizza, and Campanelle al Tartufo. The Lumache alla Vodka was the best I tried. A delicious but very pricey meal. The atmosphere is perfect for a date night. Updated from previous review on 2024-03-09“
“Had a cozy lil' table for two last Friday night, and Osteria Carlina hit all the marks for outstanding food, warm hospitality and intimate atmosphere. Everything we tried was a treat, with the beef tartare, Barolo risotto, beef cheeks and molten chocolate cake standing out as our favorites. The staff here are all engaging – particularly want to call out Nelson and say thank you for the tip top personalized service and conversation! It was a packed restaurant with couples and friend groups, seemingly everyone in high spirits. Also: points for the playlist which spanned from the Bee Gees to Fleetwood Mac – we're excited to come back!“
“I love this place. Especially on a sunny Sunday afternoon for brunch. It was fun watching fashionable diners of Fort Greene trickle in and out of this airy dining room, ready to devour their brunch plates and cocktails. My lobster scrambled eggs were a bit salty, but I’d let the extra sodium slide. The short ribs with polenta was amazing.Breakout star - I really loved the biscotti that came with the espresso. I wonder if that’s homemade?I was here for dinner before as well. Loved both of my visits.“
“We’ve eaten at several places in Little Italy but this may be our new favorite. It’s the real deal. Truly fresh pasta - you can taste the difference. We had the bucatini and the gnocchi. They also brought a chocolate cheesecake or mousse dessert that was ridiculously good. The service was excellent. Very friendly, patient, and right on top of everything. There is plenty of indoor seating as well as outdoor tables. The interior is fresh and welcoming. We even enjoyed watching an employee carve a large wheel of cheese. It’s been the closest thing we’ve found in the US to our experience in Italy. The bucatini reminded me of the same thing I had at a tiny, family restaurant in Sienna. We will definitely be back any time we are in the city.“
“We came across Aura on a night out, and we are so happy that we decided to go in. We loved it so much, that we stayed till closing. The owner welcomed us with so much warmth, and hospitality.He was incredibly accommodating and got us seats by the beautiful, electric bar even though it was full. The bartenders were super sweet, fun, and everyone was so pleasant to be around. Overall it was a cozy, fun, charming little place.Drinks were amazing. Our friend tried the food and she loved it. We will definitely be back for more drinks, the food, and the aura ;)“
“I’m so happy our original Christmas Eve reservation was cancelled and we found this gem. It was perfect. Romantic ambience, beyond excellent service, food was delicious, drinks were strong. My boyfriend and I shared: Appetizers: -Seared scallops: I know right, scallops. Generic usually? But these were in an amazing sauce which was devoured with our side of bread. -Octopus carpaccio: Perfect amount of freshness to balance the rich scallops. Main: -The wood fired fish for two: they brought the fish out from the kitchen to show us the fish in flames and that was very cute and appreciated -Meatless Rigatoni: I seriously held on to this dish to the very last moments even though I didn’t have enough room to finish it lol I was obsessed with the sauce Dessert: - Panna Cotta: the balsamic reduction was something I did not expect with this dessert but it was magical“
“Cafe Mars is truly out of this world! The food is delicious, exciting, and fun — the Waves pasta dish is our favorite in the city. They have excellent wine and amaro/grappa lists and are eager to find ways to introduce you to new tastes. The ambience is one of bright, upbeat, whimsy, with a number of surprises that I won't spoil here. But the star of Cafe Mars is the staff. Everyone you encounter from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave makes you feel like a beloved guest at their wonderfully wubulous dinner party. They are all warm and welcoming with just the right amount of weird, and they've mastered the art of authentic hospitality. Can't wait for our next visit!“
“Returning to Portale after some time away was a delightful experience, made even more special by the warm welcome and recognition of our absence. To our surprise and delight, our favorite bottle of wine from the Etna region was presented without us needing to request it—a thoughtful gesture that set the tone for the evening ahead.Now, let's talk about the food. Each dish was a testament to Portale's culinary mastery. From the Crudo di Tonno to the Polpo for appetizers, Ippoglosso, that my partner loved. I ordered the Maiale, cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor, was a definite highlight, while the Funghi and Bruxelles sides added depth and variety to our meal.Dessert was a decadent affair, with the Amaro Affogato, Torta di Olio, and surprise Panna Cotta treating our taste buds to a delightful finale.Throughout the evening, the service was top-notch, with attentive staff ensuring our every need was met with a smile.In summary, our return to Portale was nothing short of exceptional. From the warm hospitality to the outstanding cuisine, every aspect of our visit exceeded expectations. Portale continues to shine as a culinary gem, and we eagerly look forward to our next dining adventure there.“
“I was so happy to eat here again this past weekend! I used to come all the time back when I lived in Brooklyn, and now that I’m in a different borough, it was definitely worth the journey to Brooklyn. The food is delicious, the service is great, and the inside is both spacious and cozy. I’ve been with both large and small groups, and it’s great for both.“
“I cannot state enough just how delicious the food is here !!! Soooooooooo good !! Everything was full of soo much flavor and the steak had to have been one of the best cooked steaks I’ve ever had perfect temp and seasoning.It’s pretty inside and perfect to go for a date night the ambiance is nice. Definitely recommend this place“
“The menu is small, and the preparations are simple. While the menu doesn't present any surprises, it's a step up from the substandard Italian-American fare too many places pilfer to an unsuspecting public. Pep's claims to make all pasta in-house.We didn't order a pizza, but those I saw coming out of the wood oven looked very good to my keen Neapolitan pizza-loving eye.My rigitoni with eggplant and thin slabs of fresh mozz was good. The pasta was cooked *perfectly* with a delightful chew. The eggplant was flavorful and creamy and there was lots of it.My wife's salmon was properly cooked, and my fussy daughter's chicken Milanese was a generous portion, that was tender and crispy. Their dishes were good but unremarkable.The service was not overly attentive, or very polished but it was friendly and more than acceptable.“
