PeasantOutstandingThe food is superb. Love the bread and ricotta that they serve, but be careful not to fill up on that because it's just the beginning of what is a great, memorable meal.

Our waiter, when asked, suggested a reasonably priced wine that was delicious and was paired well with our main course. We'll be back soon with our friends.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMA neighborhood find.Went for our anniversary. Had to wait for our reservation but they couldn't have been more accomodating we both had dessert on the house! Loved the bar atmosphere. Very fun and lively but warm and inviting on a snowy night. The food was fabulous. Can't wait to go back.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMyou have to read itI just didnt put those 5 stars because it is convenient to do so. I really like this place! I took a friend of mine who believes that I know really good places in the city. I had some pressure on my shoulders! She really loved it! The food was amazing as usual! The octopus, the risotto and the rabbit lasagna was just delicious...The reader might think that I am exaggerating, but I am not. Why would I? Just go and try...3/15/2013 12:00:00 AMNot just a smoke screen!As soon as you walk in the door, the aroma of the wood burning fire oven is tantalizing, and it would be a shame not to order anything and everything cooked in it! The suckling pig was, indeed succulent, the skin crisped by the very same oven! Salads were great, and used the most seasonal of lettuces, puntarelle in season is sublime. The one failure was the inedible pear pie, but who needs dessert after a wood roasted meal such as the one peasant offers. Not good to be the king..better to be the peasant!3/13/2013 12:00:00 AMnever disappointingI've never been to an Italian restaurant that consistently puts out amazing food. If you want food prepared perfectly that never disappoints then come here. Also the wine selection and pairings they recommend are amazing!!3/13/2013 12:00:00 AMAmazing risotto - only criticismAmazing risotto - only criticism is that they didnt have gluten free bread available.2/8/2013 12:00:00 AMPeasant = PleasantIt may have been going for a while by NY standards but but it hasn't dropped its standards. Nice warm ambience, great and sometimes innovative food, well cooked and presented. It is great to see the real wood burning oven in the kitchen. This is especially nice on a winter's evening. Nice wine list reasonably priced. All in all a good dining experience at reasonable prices for Manhattan.12/2/2012 12:00:00 AM
