This Italian place is casual and my rating is 10/10. I enjoyed every dish I ordered (calamari salad, mussels appetizer, house made SPAGHETTI ai PORCINI, PAPPARDELLE al RAGU DI MATALE) and also enjoyed wine by a glass. The staff were nice and were pretty attentive for how busy the restaurant was.

Came with a friend for a nice catch up dinner during the week. We got seated in the outdoor heated tent, which was quieter and easier to have a conversation. Inside was quite loud and lively, and pretty packed. Definitely make a reservation. The food was good! The pasta was freshly and full of flavour. There was a bit of a mix up with payment at the end of the night. Our server got the cards mixed up with other tables that were seated under the outdoor tent and then at one point; they couldn't find one of our cards. It turns out the waiter had dropped it within the restaurant. Other than the payment issue, everything else was great.

Great spot and we were able to snag a reservation without a crazy amount of time in advance. The beet salad was very fresh and I liked that it is not just a traditional salad. Pizza was good, but the showstopper for me was the mushroom pasta. Fabulous sauce that reminded me of Marsala sauce and a huge portion. Would definitely recommend!

This place is a MUST visit! I had the lasagna and it was life changing. I honestly didn't know ricotta could be so creamy and smooth. My husband had the Rigatoni al Pesto Trapanese and it was also creamy, flavorful, and filling. We ended the meal with tiramisu and the chocolate mousse. Both were rich and exactly what we needed to complete this perfect meal. Service was great, ambiance was exactly what I expected for a little Italian place in NYC. Definitely worth your time.

TLDR: Solid Italian food for a reasonable price. FOOD: I shared the Burrata with prosciutto and the calamari as appetizers. The Burrata was delicious, but can you really go wrong with burrata, arugula, and prosciutto? I think not! The calamari was different than normal calamari appetizers I normally have, which are often breaded and deep fried. This one was grilled and in larger pieces on top of a salad with capers. I'm honestly not a big fan of capers, but overall I thought the dish was pretty good. For our mains, we shared the spaghetti with Porchini mushrooms, which was a major yum, and the pizza with broccoli rabe and sausage. I was pretty impressed by both of the main dishes, would recommend both! The pizza had a really good texture of the bread. And the mushroom porcinis had strong umami. Those also came with a whole cup of Parmesan on the side -- I genuinely loved that I could serve myself (no lie there have def been times I've wanted people to keep going on that Parmesan but then it gets awkward with how much cheese I'm adding and how long they are standing there grading cheese...) SERVICE: Great! No complaints -- they didn't rush us out which I appreciated. I feel like this is a sign of solid, next level service. AMBIANCE: We sat outdoors in their outdoor heated space. I was a tad worried, considering it is early March and it was only a high in the 40s that day, but the heater in there made it quite toasty. Cute little outdoor structure -- did not need to wear my down jacket as I ate. RESERVATIONS: Recommended. I got one for 5:30 pm on a Friday when I booked the night before. More normal times were taken, but my companion had a train to catch at 8pm anyway so it worked great. OVERALL: Great! Will be back.

What a cute Italian restaurant!! They have a great wine selection, delicious food and the staff were so sweet! Everyone speak Italian and it just made the experience feel so authentic. I would definitely coke here for an intimate dinner with excellent food, great wine, and amazing service!

Ambiance is so good! Prices are really reasonable and the service is great. I got the rigatoni al pesto and the serving size was perfect before going out in the village.

servers were so lovely and attentive! sitting outside and dining on the street was peak. ranked: carbonara: so good! this is a must order, i'm also just a diehard carbonara fan pesto: very flavorful but not heavy, the pesto was so good calamari: was a little tough, not my taste but my sister really enjoyed it

A truly wonderful and lovely wine bar to have an evening at for dinner, drinks, and good times. I really loved this place, a very cozy and quaint restaurant with an intimate dining atmosphere, dark but sexy and comfortable. Had a holiday party to go to here at 7:30 but since I'm always early I got there at 7 and went to the bar to have a glass of wine. The bartender was very nice and personable, and everyone is authentic Italian, very culturally in sync with the vibe and very friendly with customers. Had 2 glasses of wine, a Chianti and a Pinot Noir, both very good. Then had a bowl of Lentil Soup, special of the day, warm, delicious and flavorful. Party shows up and I move to the table. We have lots of apps and laughs. The Pizza was alright, not too special, but the Burrata was very good. I had the Papardelle with Beef Ragu (Sub Pork) and it was also very well done. Highly recommend, wonderful evening, fantastic place.
