Delicious authentic Italian. Not busy at all and very close to a lot of theaters. We went here before seeing MJ.

I can’t believe this place isn’t packed EVERY night! It’s a little tucked away off the main 8th and 9th Ave food rows But from the perfect carpaccio to the gnocchi cacio e pepe that melted in your mouth to the squid ink fettuccine special with everything was amazing! The service was friendly, food was fantastic and the space was welcoming and simple but charming. I literally wanted to come back for more the next day!

We had a reservation for Noon today and the restaurant was closed and no one was around. I was in NY to see a show and was extremely disappointed and angry. I would never recommend this restaurant to anyone. Called the restaurant at 5 PM and they answered and said they are only open for dinner. Open Table should correct the website.

The crabcake appetizer, and the Veal scallopini we’re just out of this world. The best of all was the chocolate mousse cake for dessert. Thanks to everyone for making us feel so welcome and catering to our every need
