We had the three course dinner and were not disappointed. The veal piccata was the best I have had and the Arragato desert with gelato & espresso was a nice touch. Fifth Avenue ambiance cannot be beat on a nice night! One of my favorite restaurants!

Very good food. My lady friend and I had Veal Piccata, Awesome Raviolis + Shrimp appetizers. Everything was delish. Table for 2 was very small, bread basket slid off table, too many plates and glasses, my purse slid off the seat. Too cramped.

Trying to support new owners. I think the service was bad, not for lack of trying but looks like the server had too many tables. He was really nice but just slammed. Maybe up the staff. The food was drenched in butter, the sweet potato ravoli's were lacking in taste. The grouper was dry. Sorry just trying to be honest.

The basic meals that you would think would be a great staple on the Italian menu were fair (lasagna (mushy); chicken parm (minimal sauce). The drinks were also marginal (martinis). Wait staff were kind and took off lasagna from bill but I wouldn’t race back there with other Italian restaurants near by.

Front manager was rude when we arrived and had a reservation and waited 20 mins. Another group arrived and was seated. When I inquired, he rudely told me it was their turn. Our server was very friendly just extremely busy. We felt forgotten at times. Was there for 2 hrs, and we were not drinking.
