    Simply the best Italian meal we've had in NYC (which is saying something)! Friendly accomodating service, affordable prices (compared to other similar Manhattan places), nice setting and a great location near the theaters. We (family of five) ordered the seafood pasta, chicken marsala, mushroom pasta, chicken pesto panini, and chicken caeser salad--all outstanding. We'll be back!

    The free bread was dry and covered in flour. The butter was served hard and did not spread. The focaccia was essentially a flat crust pizza with pesto on it (not bad but not what was expected). The sauce on my Gnocchi tasted like Campbells tomato soup (which is not desirable). My empty wine glass sat at the edge of our table until the end of the meal when it was taken away. I was never asked if I wanted another. A plus is that it is not expensive when considering NYC prices and our vodka penne was good. Consider Mamma Mia’s if you want an average meal for non-exorbitant prices.

    We were seated immediately and everyone was very intentive, friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the ambiance and were positioned at a great table for people watching along the street. Our dishes (eggplant parmigon and gnocchi) were good but not "fantastic" and the price was reasonable considering the great location. Overall, good price performance!

    The shrimp Toscana was pleasant but nothing special. Surprisingly, the food came out so fast we did not get our drink order. This is not a place to have a relaxed meal.
