I booked an outdoor table for two a week ago and even checked in person on the 19th to make sure it’s all set. When we arrived yesterday right on time, the table wasn’t available and we had to wait for a long time or sit at the bar!!! It was so embarrassing in front of my especial guest...I wished I’ve booked in another restaurant where I could trust the service when I book a table in advance!

Honestly…this place was underwhelming compared to all of the amazing reviews.

We had an 8pm reservation, but waited ~20min to be seated. It was vey much a scene, which I get, because the views were beautiful and it was great people watching. However the outdoor space was tight, narrow, and felt chaotic. We had no QR code (other tables did) so figuring out the menu was a bit tricky. The appetizers were awesome though (grilled octopus and ricotta) and our waitress was nice. Drinks were also good (a few cocktails and a bottle of wine). The biggest issue was the lighting. By the time our main course came out it was dark outside and we couldn’t see what we were eating. We asked for a candle and were told that the WestElm we were sitting next to usually keeps their lights on overnight and they normally depend on that for lighting. Which is weird…right? It took a while but we did eventually get one. The pastas were fine, but nothing memorable. Service overall was fine….I would describe the whole experience as “fine”.

If you live in NY - there are WAY better places out there and I would not recommend. If you’re visiting the city, then I think this is a fun destination for pictures and probably a bit more affordable compared to some of the other “hotspots”.

Cecconi's used to be our absolute favorite with exquisite food and service. Yesterday we went for fathers day and it was nothing close to what it used to be. The food although more expensive than before was mediocre at best. The waiter forgot to put in half our order and the staff was disorganized and seemed overwhelmed. The fish was off and caused an upset stomach. Hopefully they will return to their old standards at some point. The only great thing was the view.

Really bad seevice

Our server was extremely pleasant and agreeable. The food was very good as were the cocktails. This is our new go to place for special occaisions.

Good food - good experience

Kendrick the best waiter. And the front door staff are the best.

Beautiful views of the bridge. Good wine. We sat outside and it was great for people watching and viewing the river and bridge. Very pleasant evening under the awning in spite of the rain. Can’t wait to return.

Great food, great views, great vibes, food was the best I have ever had in NYC

I’ll start with the good. This place has amazing views of the Brooklyn bridge, FiDi, and the water.

Waited about twenty-five minutes for our table to be ready, when we already had a reservation in place. Our waiter Mike came over and asked us if we were ready to order immediately after sitting down. Obviously we were not, so he did us the kind favor of returning back to us 30 minutes later. He was incognito for most of our time there , except when it came to the check. As much as I tried to love this place, our waiter made it impossible.

The food was average and missing basic seasoning(ordered avocado dip, salmon, and chicken pallard). You’re definitely paying for the views when it comes to this place.

If it means anything, we were a party of two, celebrating a birthday.

Nice view.This is only a good thing in this overpriced restaurant

We booked a reservation for my mother in law's birthday and the outside area was totally booked at the time. When we arrived at the restaurant they saw the note and was able to seat us outside as a table opened up. The hostess and server were both friendly and cool under pressure, even though they extremely busy and short staffed that night. We've eaten at Cecconi's before and they deliver consistently good food and cocktails. Highly recommend

Had dinner at Cecconi’s Dumbo for my sister’s birthday. She’s vegan so it’s not easy to find a restaurant that can make delicious plant based food and dessert that’s not just a salad or grilled veggies and some fruit. She had an amazing vegan pizza and a decadent vegan chocolate mouse and coconut sorbet dessert. My meal was equally as delicious. The setting is beautiful and the service is top notch. Highly recommend!

Not good. Food took very long poor service

Elegant setting, great service, and I loved the food!

Hands down the best meal I’ve had in a while. The staff was amazing and wine selection 10/10

Amazing food and ambience, highly recommend this restaurant to anyone. One of my favorites!

Food was quite average, service was terrible, but ambiance was good. We had a reservation weeks in advance but still needed to wait 20+ minutes for our table. Server was inattentive. Ahi tuna appetizer had no taste. Cocktails were fine. Cavatelli was decent and branzino was salty. Very expensive for the experience.

Everything was perfect. Food, customer service, view

amazing, attentive service. great place for date night or family night out

We were running late but the hostess was extremely gracious and accommodating and made sure our experience got off to a wonderful start. The food and atmosphere were excellent.

Great service with a view. The food was good but drink are lack luster. Overall nice large restaurant, that is definitely come back to.

Outstanding. From the gentleman out front of the restaurant to the hosts to the service. Wonderful experience. Clearly hiring professionals only. Thank you for making our evening special.

Love sitting outside!

The service was great! If you go, ask for Jordan to be your server as he made sure that we had everything in a timely manner!

Carl was amazing and very informative as far as the menu.....Food was great and drinks were spot on

Was wonderful as always! Our waiter was new, but outstanding!!!!!! Thank You!!!!

All food was phenomenal, there was a little bit of a wait on the food. They didnt have the bottle of wine in stock that we requested. But overall good experience

We felt rushed out because we weren’t ordering more food or drinks. They gave us the check before we were done with your drinks. Food was just ok. The whole experience was underwhelming

Can't beat the vote outside of the Manhattan Bridge! Their pizza is too notch!

Food was amazing! The view was amazing! Everything about this place is a 10/10!! The hostesses are so communicative and sweet! Best dinner I’ve ever had. Highly recommend this place it’s a must visit!

Birthday . Food is consistently delicious , service is outstanding

Always love dining at Cecconis. Mark was so kind and informative. We had a great time. Will be back soon!

Lots of fun and yummy food

Gorgeous evening. the welcoming hostess made us feel at home

Amazing ambience & view, food was really good but service was absolutely terrible!!

Food was great, staff was very accommodating and our waitress was very nice! Just wish that our food and drinks came out a little quicker. Other than that, beautiful place and great-tasting food!

food outstanding , place is amazing... the waiter service was poor at best..

Love this place. The service is impeccable. The food is delicious, and portions in accordance with the type of food served. The decor/ambiance is well appointed (not obnoxious/over the top but quality and curated)
I requested half way my meal to be moved to the bar (was hot seating outside). They made it happen with a smile and a quick follow to make sure all was good.
Their team makes everyone feel special and welcome. The best is that it feels genuine.
This is truly a great place whether you are from the neighborhood, or coming to Dumbo for a fun/romantic outing.

We had a wonderful Anniversary Dinner! Food, Ambiance and service was perfect!
