    An amazing dinner! With a delicious special of Sacchetti“money bag” pasta filled with fig and blue cheese under vodka sauce…. Soo amazing! So decadent but so worth it! Benny and his staff were so attentive and as always an amazing dining experience, always worth the visit.

    Very cozy and welcoming restaurant. Warmly greeted by Benny (owner). We had linguine alle vongole.Very tasty- not a large portion, however satisfying. Another diner had chicken milanese which he said was excellent. Staff service can be a bit over the top, however they do aim to please. Would suggest to have a glass wine list as opposed to just bottles. In addition, would eliminate the bruschetta and peppers on the table before sitting down. The served bread was delicious. Overall an excellent neighborhood gem. You won’t be disappointed!

    Love il tinello! The ambiance, the cocktails and the food are fantastic! The service is exceptional and they make "the best" dirty martini around! It is always an exceptional experience!

    Had a great dinner at Il Tinello, as always. We started with the caesar, then split cacio e pepe and chicken parm with vodka sauce. A friend who was visiting joined me for her first visit and said it was the best cacio e pepe she'd ever had!

    Greeted by Benny we were made to feel like family. All the staff were so pleasant and make us very comfortable and satisfied. From the starters to our Caesar salad and main courses of scallops and bronzino everything was delicious and perfectly prepared. Drinks and wine were great to go with our dinner. Cannolis, tiramisu and cheesecake for dessert were yummy. Already looking forward to our next visit!

    Lovely old school (white table cloths, tuxedo-ed staff) restaurant, with an extensive menu of all your favorites and maybe dinner things you’re not familiar with. While the special papparadelle Bolognese wasn’t that memorable (and at $40, it should’ve been), our starters of stracciatella and burrata with prosciutto were excellent. Surprisingly limited wine selection with few Italian varietals (but our Pinot Grigio and Super Tuscan were fine). Formal service but comfortable atmosphere ; it’s ok to come in casually. Small bar as well as a couple of sidewalk tables.

    The most welcoming restaurant in the neighborhood. The food is consistently good. We’ve loved getting to know the staff over the past 3 years — such wonderful people. The Dover sole was perfect! Will be back again.
