   The food was one of the best I have had in New York. Lobster Ravioli, Octopus Salad, and eggplant goat cheese are highly recommended! Also, the services were outstanding. Don't remember her name, but she said she was new but had the best service!!

   Nice place, but hang on to your wallet. The price tag is a shocker for what you get.

   Trying to be an Italian restaurant with poor results. Restaurant is very tiny, you end up eating with all the other guests. Service was below average. They don't even bring you a printed bill at the end.

   The restaurant was completely empty, instead of sitting us at a table the pit is at the bar in the corner leaning against the coat rack. When another couple arrived, they shoved that other couple right next to us at the bar, rather than spreading us out. Again the restaurant was completely empty when they did this.

   This was probably the best meal we’ve ever had and it’s so reasonably priced, especially for nyc food. The black truffle gnocchi and grilled octopus salad are to die for!

    No bread served. Hurried staff, difficult to understand. Food tasted good but looked bad on the plate -- that extra presentation care would go a long way. Sat outdoors next to a large, loud, birthday party. Outdoor hut filled with midges -- very distracting during dinner.

    I loved this place the first time I went, but now they’re packing it and there’s awful air circulation. We rushed to get the check because our eyes were stinging from the fumes coming from the kitchen area right next to the tables. While we were eating, I asked the hostess if they could keep the door of the restaurant wide open and that I was pretty sure what we were feeling in the air was gas. The door helped a bit.

    This is a gem tucked away on a small street in the Village. The handmade black truffle oil gnocchi was incredible! Hands down the best I’ve every had! The calamari with olives was equally amazing as an app. If you’re able to visit make sure you make a reservation as the place is small indoors but plenty of outdoor seating.

    We’ve never experienced such a rude host. After arriving on time for our indoor reservation (at the end of October) we were told there were only tables available outside. The hostess was nonchalant and smirked telling us that’s just the way it is. More groups turned up for indoor reservations and told the same thing. Please don’t accept any reservations if you can’t honor them

    First time we visited the restaurant was in December 2018 and the food was very tasty, staff welcoming and place real nice. Came back this time and it was loud music, the waiter was stressed and irritated and the food was not tasty at all. Which we informed the waiter about, he then answered he could not do anything about it as he was not responsible for the staff in the kitchen!

    We have eaten at the sister restaurant a few times before lockdown, and always enjoyed it. Our experience here was sadly not the same. First, we booked outside but were given a table inside. Inside is tight and noisy and somewhat chaotic, with one of our dishes falling on the floor before it came to us. Then, I had to ask five times for some ice. As far as the food is concerned, my daughter liked her gnocchi, but my linguini alle vongole was lackluster - a lot of bland linguini with exactly 6 clams. The meatball appetizer was more interesting, but not enough to convince me that it's worth coming back here.

    Cotenna is a must stop. It was amazing. The food was magnificent. The service was wonderful. They could do with one more server. It was busy and the two working there were running around, but they were very hospitable and the food was just beyond words. Highly recommend.

    Loved the inside, the atmosphere but some of the food was so disappointing. 3 of the dishes were great but the Linguine Vongole was very poor. Tasteless no sauce and over rated. They brought me another but it wasn’t much better. A shame as the other dishes were good.

    Putting 3 Mexicans in a tiny kitchen open to the Restaurants with all the odors going with it does not convert you into an Italian restaurant ? Not worth a Bib gourmand award !

    This place has made a big mess all over its “Bib Gourmamd.” The server started to take our order and left the table suddenly and without explanation, not to return for several long minutes. One pasta purported to be gnocchi with black truffle. There was no sign of truffle and we deduced that it was {synthetic} black truffle oil. Not an honest written description on the menu. The food was fair otherwise, but not special. I could have made an equivalent “maintenance meal” at home for far more satisfaction.

    Orchiette with sausage and broccoli rabe was delicious, wonderfully garlicky and the marinara with seafood very good. Caesar salad had a little too much mayonnaise but plenty of anchovies (which we love). Wines were delicious and good value. Service was attentive and friendly.

    Pasta of the day - I was so excited. What a disappointment - tagliatelle was over cooked and it looked like there were small frozen shrimp mixed in with the larger fresh shrimp. My friend has the truffle gnocchi - very one note. I don’t think I will recommend to friends.

    I think it's fair to say that my party of four, all of us from the UK, enjoyed our visit. It's in a nice, leafy area in the West Village, rather small (somewhat cramped). The wine list was surprisingly pricey, but the food good - in my case a minestrone soup with pesto that elevated above the usual, and as a main, orecchiette pasta with broccoli rabe and spicy sausage. Great. We also enjoyed deserts. Service was very friendly and music good.
