    SERVIZIO PESSIMO !!!! Il 26 Dicembre insieme a mio marito abbiamo deciso di andare a mangiare in questo posto con delle aspettative molto alte visto che il ristorante viene sponsorizzato da Joe Bastianich. CAMERIERE ANTIPATICO Durante tutto il servizio non ha fatto mai un sorriso ma soprattutto sembrava come se ci facesse il favore. CIBO Antipasto -Polenta con il bacon buona -Antipasto misto buono se non fosse che il piatto era congelato e quindi è stato preparato h prima Primo -Tris di primi (fettuccine al ragù ,ravioli ripieni spinaci ,penne al pomodoro) non male tranne le fettuccine dure e sugo 👎🏼 Secondo -Costoletta di vitello mio marito è rimasto molto soddisfatto BEVERAGE gin tonic buono SERVIZIO Come detto prima pessimo. La cosa che ci ha dato più fastidio è che dopo aver terminato di mangiare i nostri piatti erano sul tavolo senza che nessuno venisse. Il cameriere nostro era sparito e quelli che erano lì non si avvicinavano. Alla fine ci siamo alzati con i piatti sul tavolo per andare a pagare.

    I love Becco. True authentic Italian food. I loved my salmon so much and the roasted Brussel sprouts. We loved the restaurant so much we’re coming back tonight.

    Becco is our go to restaurant before or after the theater and my family has been eating there for 25 years. Tonight we were seated upstairs at a tiny rickety table shoved up against the wall. The tables were so close I was practically in my neighbor’s lap. Server was brusque and unfriendly. Service was slow. When I asked to pack up my meal to go, some dude angrily tossed a container onto the table. I hope this was just a weird “off” night but this was not the Becco experience we know and love. Also, the upstairs area is terrible. Ask to be seated downstairs.

    Waiter was honest and excellent. He let us know the chef was under a lot of stress. I understand bc this is a peak week but it didn’t hit right. Basic ravioli would have been helpful for a picky teen. Steak was amazing !

    We have been coming for years on Christmas Eve but this year we watched as waiters brought in very large tables, passing our table each time which was disruptive. When I mentioned to the hostess the concern her response was "you could have said you didn't want to sit there" which was very unkind. We had no idea our table would be in front of the bar as you walk directly into the restaurant. Please do not seat long time patrons in areas that should be for last minute reservations. We came in November and someone called and asked me if we had anyone who could not climb stairs- since I replied no they put us upstairs. Hoping that next year we get a space that accommodates long term and loyal customers.
