    Excellent food - waiter was friendly, attentive but not overbearing. Noise level was good - which means that we could hear each other while dining.

    Giulia is always delicious. The food is not your average Italian as they also find less common pasta and unique food mixes to take it to the next level.

    Of course, the best Italian food is in Italy. And we've a place we love when we are in NYC. Giulia is pretty close. First time there; had a great meal. We have a love of fresh pasta, and Giulia's is made fresh every day.
