The food was delicious! Everything was fresh and flavorful. We had salad, pastas, focaccia, panini, and tiramisu to top it all off. Very cool ambiance. Will definitely be returning!

What a disappointment! The cacio e pepe was a mound of goo that tasted like pepper. No saltiness or flavor from the pasta. The tomatoes in the Caprese Salad were bland. Both were over $20. What a shame.

Maestro Pasta is a truly authentic culinary experience. All of their pasta is homemade and hand made. The prosciutto di Parma and Parmigiano Reggiano board was brilliant and the portions were super generous The house Chianti paired superbly with the pasta bolognese. I even splurged and ordered a round of meatballs for the table. There is not one regret nor anything that I longed for at this restaurant. I was so full that I couldn’t even order the panna cotta. If I had a bigger stomach, I’d be all over the dessert. If you are looking for authentic Italian cuisine done right… this is the place!

Maestro Pasta is worth visiting if you are looking for casual Italian dining. It’s on a busy street and there redeeming benefit is their fresh pasta itself. We had a young male waiter who was helpful but the other staff were dismissive. My wife, our guest and myself enjoyed our experience but there is definitely much better Italian dining in NYC.

We had the “Aglio olio e Peperoncino” pasta and it was delicious! Pasta is homemade and a delight. Don't take too long to eat as it will get cold. We also had the “Bufalo” salad, not bad, very thick (balsamic vinaigrette?) dressing. Waiter was very friendly!

We ordered four different pasta dishes, and I had to ask them to add more salsa because they were dry. The tiramisu was excellent. If you want to have some drinks with something sweet, this is the best place; but if you are looking for an Italian place with delicious pasta, this is absolutely not for you. The site itself is beautiful though.

I got to maestro’s on time with my date for the evening, went to the front and told the lady working at the register “I have my reservations for 8pm. She sees my name and says “yes right this way”. She begins to sit me and my date on this small little table (looks like a kids table) tucked in the front end corner of where the high seats (which I preordered for) begins. I begin talking with the lady and in a nice way try to explain to her that I have a bad back and my bad has spasms if I sit to low to the ground hence why I preorder. But she had retorted and said the following to me and my date: “what is the difference between where your sitting and the high seats”. After that my guess and I said “thank you but we are leaving”. I really do hope maestro pasta teaches there staff about being respectful and understanding. To question a customers request isn’t a good way to handle business. And more info they had open seats I have reserved for open but they gave them away to other folks (I was the only person of color within the establishment).

I had a reservation for 2. She gave me a weird shape table with stools. There is no way the table can accommodate the food we were going to order. I asked for another table and was met with weird to and fro from the 2 ladies who worked there. Like I was making an outrageous request. There were empty tables with normal chairs and I don't know why I was asked to sit at the table with stools. Unwelcoming vibe really. The food was average. The waiter was good.

The food was excellent. However, the waiter didn’t let us know that all the food came out together. If we had known, we might have changed our order as some items got cold on the table. Otherwise, everything else was great. I love the atmosphere in the restaurant. The design is cool.

Outstanding restaurant - from entering (free Prosecco while we waited to be seated!) through dining and payment. Staff was wonderful, the theme/concept and interior design was fun, eye-catching, comfortable, clean - SWINGS! And the food was SO plentiful and delicious - I will be back each time I’m in NYC!

Came here with a group of friends on a week night and had an amazing time. The restaurant is cute and cozy, and we were lucky enough to score a table with swings. We ordered for starters a cheese board with torta fritta, which I have to say, was absolutely amazing. We ended up eating so much bread and cheese that we were almost too full for our meal. For dinner, we ordered pesto cavatelli, Parma crudo focaccia and a ravioli plate. All came out piping hot, fresh and super tasty. For dessert we had the chocolate mousse and tiramisu. I would highly recommend all plates! The servers were extremely attentive and our glasses were always full. We never felt rushed at any moment and were able to enjoy our meal. I would definitely come back and eat here. Thank you Alessandro and staff for a great experience.
