Best Italian Restaurants in Lower East Side

Fantastic midtown option! A favorite spot - never disappoints.

Not sure if this is considered a chain- but the food is so delicious!! We needed a sure bet for multiple picky eaters and in a location in the city that was unfamiliar. The location, scene and menu did not disappoint.

Our waitress was amazing! Loved her energy and attentiveness! Meatballs, fried calamari and chicken milanese topped with giant salad were all delicious!! We will be back!

Sestina was the perfect place for my anniversary dinner with my husband. The food was finely crafted and fresh. The service was impeccable. They really made our night special. We will be back soon, no doubt.

A great place to stop by for a tasty and reasonably priced bite or full meal, especially when there are dollar happy hour oysters, and especially when Apathy is your server. The outdoor space is pretty bare bones but clean and well-spaced, and though we didn't eat inside, the space looks inviting...See More
