Great outdoor setup with lots of heaters
We love Nando! He’s a great host and the food is fantastic! It was very warm outside and the food was decadent and delicious. Yummy tiramisu. Highly recommend!
They have a good outdoor setup with heaters close to the table. And the food is fantastic.
Great outdoor seating. Warm and segregated tables
Amazing as always. Great food.
Although it was outside dining the owner of this establishment made it as comfortable as possible for his customers. The food was amazing and the service was great. It was cold but good. Hoping the city opens back up so we can have the full experience.
Great outdoor setup, plenty of space, and always incredible homemade pasta and pesto.
Lunch, amazing food, everything was fresh and great.
Incredible service and food; will absolutely be returning. Such a warm and welcoming atmosphere from the owners.
Great pasta and friendly staff!
I can’t believe for years I never came to this restaurant. They have a great set up for Covid and the food is delicious. What more can you ask for.
The patio in the back was completely covered, felt more of being inside. It was also super cold and the heaters they had were nit strong enough and only blowing hit air. We ordered the appetizer that was suppose to come with peaches, but gave us a mellon instead. I ordered the lobster linguine carbonara and it was terrible. The fish did not taste good at all. Another dish we ordered came with a different type of pasta.
Great food and great service! Got the pesto linguine with mozzarella on top and it was delicious.
Great food and service - they never disappoint!
The food was absolutely delicious. Loved how each outdoor table had it's own personal heater. The service was average at best. We asked for specific items multiple times (water, bread, etc.) that never came to the table. Additionally, the waiter was not too friendly. Would still come back as the food was delicious.
Selection was very varied and appealing. Food was good and serving sizes were generous. All around, well done! Recommended.
Don't know why I haven't eaten here, will definitely go back. Everything was great!
7pm reservation restaurant was pretty empty. Had to beg for a table under the tent rather than narrow sidewalk. Waited 56 minutes for our two salad appetizer’s when people who came after us got their hot appetizer’s before us. Maitre’d was quick to blame others but we are pretty confident he didn’t put order in. After the salads which were bland on my opinion we shared fish and black pasta with seafood fra diavolo and was VERY surprised we had to crack open the lobster mixed into the pasta. By end of the meal maitre’d poured us two glasses of complimentary wine for the inconvenience which we didn’t drink RATHER than comp us for the drinks we ordered. Would not go back for many reasons. There are plenty of better restaurants in the neighborhood.
The food was amazing! The service was wonderful as well. I truly felt at home!
Didn't have a chance to even sit down. Even though we booked an outdoor table they tried to seat us inside. When we said we were not comfortable they said there were only tables for four available. Was excited about trying but experience was disappointing. Doesn't even look like they are using open table to manage reservations... Went to UVA and had a nice time.
Always love having dinner here!
Very good food. Reasonable prices. Good service.
Great Covid outdoor dining setup and delicious food
I LOVE this place for it's food and ambiance outside of COVID so I had to stop by recently because I needed some good pasta. They have done a beautiful job with distancing the seats and the outdoor seating (with heaters). I was mislead when seated with the wine menu. I was told that a certain section of the menu was half off. Don't be fooled, it was full price on the bill. Just make sure to ask.
The pasta was melt in your mouth delicious...and cheap! A rare gem for UES locals.
Amazing! I love love love this restaurant
Such a quaint place with the kindest service! Amazing food... one of my favorite neighborhood spots!
Amazing and delicious! Some of the best Italian we have had. Great atmosphere also!
Will definietly be back. Great pasta
Paglia e Fieno with Salmon was cloyingly creamy.
The pasta entrees were delicious and certainly worth the trip (Lobster Linguine/Straw and Hay Shrimp). The bruschetta was very good.
Dessert was a complete bust. We had wanted the Pistachio Ricotta Cake, but they were out of it (at 630pm). Our second choice was the Ricotta Cheesecake--terrible. Tasted like sawdust. We told the waitress, and it was shrugged off.
The fettuccine carbonara and fettuccine vodka was incredibly delicious. So flavorful that I couldn’t put down my fork. The burrata was their special tonight and that was also so amazing. The great service with a homey ambience. Will be going back soon!
Cozy but cute!
Delicious fresh pastas and sauces.
We loved this place as a young couple. We returned after 20 years and it was every bit as good as we remembered! Friendly, accommodating never overbearing staff. Delicious pastas. What a great value. Wont be waiting another 20 years to go back!!
Food was so incredible! Got the Burrata special and three different pasta types with different sauces. Everything exceeded expectations. Would definitely recommend.
