    A perfect dining experience if you love great service, a quiet cozy restaurant, and amazing Italian food. Might feel "old school" to some, but if what you want is really great food served professionally you have come to the right place.

    IL Tinello West is my favorite Italian restaurant in NYC. I have been going out to dinner in NYC for over 41 years. IL Tinello West never disappoints. Food is absolutely fantastic and delicious every time. John and his entire staff deliver impeccable service. You can never go wrong eating at this wonderful restaurant.

    What a tremendous experience! From the Zucchini Flowers and the Burrata and Tomato apps, the beautifully prepared Veal Milanese. Add in a few bottles of Amarone and you won't be disappointed! I literally can not wait to go again! It's not cheap, bring your big boy wallet.
