Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Becco, a charming Italian spot in NYC's Theater District, is celebrated for its "fabulous" food and "excellent" service. The pasta specials, particularly the "Sinfonia di Pasta," are a highlight, offering great value. While some find it "very loud," many appreciate the lively atmosphere and prompt pre-theater dining.

    Food and service were excellent, and the prices, particularly for wine, were very reasonable for NYC.

    When in New York, this restaurant is a must go. All of our meals were wonderful. Tables are a bit too close, but the food makes up for it. Did not enjoy hitting elbows with the guy at the next table all evening.

    Ordered the 3 pasta special. I was disappointed that one was plain spaghetti. I can do that at home! Spinach ravioli lacked flavor, but pasta with bolognese sauce was great! My friend had short rib that was better than average, but not great.

    We went with our party of four to celebrate a significant birthday. While the food was certainly above average, the ambiance was terrible -- far too crowded; forced to move chairs in and out for servers or other guests; a noise level that prevented any kind of conversation. At one point in the evening staff carried in a huge (6 - 7') piece of wood to create a large table for a group coming in. Talk about lack of privacy and peaceful dining experience! Our server was busy, and brusque -- nothing at all expressing a sense of welcome for our special gathering. When dessert menus were placed on our table (Yes, just plunked down!) one of our party asked if there was a "Birthday dessert" that was shared, to which our server responded "We don't do that here." Unfortunate for a meal that was nearly $300 for 4 people. Goodbye!

    Consistently great. We book here often for more theatre. Pastas are always good and veal Parmesan superb. Last nights Cesar salad not as fresh as usual but still good
