A word from Covo

Our restaurant stands in a beautiful, growing neighborhood: West Harlem. It’s exciting and yet it has a relaxed pace. We know that you will love our home-made pastas, breads, sauces, and our pizzas made right in our very own Brick oven; but more importantly, we hope to fill your spirits with a… genuine, savory, and hearty experience. Also, join us upstairs at our Covo Lounge for a mix of signature cocktails, delightful music and an easygoing atmosphere.Continued

"Covo's menu is broad and its food is authentic and well-prepared. The restaurant is especially accommodating to large groups. But that was a drawback for me. There were several large groups, up to 20 people, celebrating birthdays and in the cavernous space the noise was extreme, making it hard for our small group to hear each other. Probably would be much more tolerable in nice weather, when the wall of doors is open and service includes tables outside."

"Covo is a gem of a restaurant where you can tell the owner not only takes pride in the restaurant, but is also trying to improve the neighborhood. Please go and see if it impresses you as much as it did me."

"Went to Covo for a family dinner. There were 10 in our party. The atmosphere was very comfortable. Danielle, our server, was very attentive to our needs and made our visit enjoyable. The food was great as was the drinks. We had a great time and will go back soon."

"We've eaten here many times (including outdoors summertime which is great!) and always enjoy the lively scene, the good, reasonable food, and the very good servic!
Its unusual location, tucked below Riverside Drive in Harlem, is also great for street parking, a rarity in Manhattan!"
