    The veal dish was outstanding! The homemade tiramisu was delicious. The wait staff was extremely attentive. However, the table cloth was soiled. We will most likely return .

    Nocello is the definition of “ a neighborhood gem!” We are in the City 3-4 times a year and Nocello is our favorite dinner choice. We have had the same waiter for at least 10 years, probably more.

    Really delicious food in a classic New York Italian restaurant. Excellent service with a menu that offer a large selection of classic and unusual meals. If you go, definitely plan on getting the zabaglione for dessert.

    Perfect spot for pre-theatre dinner. I am allergic to gluten and garlic and they were very attentive and we had a wonderful meal.

    Our 2nd visit here and we will be back again. The staff is friendly and efficient. Food is fabulous - 1st visit I had the halibut special, just great. This time the simpler pollo panetone which was delicious and an ample portion. The pistachio cake is excellent. We had a birthday and they provided a candle, singing and complimentary limoncello. :)

    We ate in lots of places during the week we stayed in NYC. We thought this was the best of all of them. The food was excellent.. proper home cooked Italian fare. The service was perfect as was the atmosphere. I'd recommend it very highly looking for an intimate high quality meal
