Food was really good but felt very rushed by the staff. Really not on top of their game when it comes to service repeatedly had to ask for water, cheese for our pasta, and a bowl to put our lobster shells in.. The noise level is way to loud could hardly hear people at our own table talking..like I said Food was very good but overall disappointed

The food was very good. Enjoyed the ambiance, and the service at the bar and table, but was crowded, so was a little noisy. I would definitely recommend this restaurant, I have gone several times.

I came for a second visit after being so impressed with both the quality and preparation of the food. I was not disappointed in the food. We shared the mozzarella and tomato appetizer. I had the chicken rollatini with a side of pasta. It was unique in its predation and enough for two meals. If you don’t mind the extremely loud dining room the food is excellent.

The hot cherry peppers pasta was super oily, not a good flavor. The half moon ravioli was ok. Like 6/10. The mozzarella app was 10/10. The table we sat at was next to bus boy station. Not the best ambiance

Although I’ve been frequenting Bay Ridge restaurants for years I’ve never visited Ponte Vecchio. I was impressed with the quality of food and the polite attentive service. We started with the mozzarella, tomato and red pepper appetizer. There It was perfectly portioned for two to share and the peppers were an excellent complement to the mozzarella. A generous basket of warm bread and room temperature butter was perfect for enjoying the lingering juices. I enjoyed the shrimp scampi with a side of capellini. The dessert menu was nicely varied. My companion had the chocolate mousse cake which she loved and I had the profiteroles. My only concern was the noise level. Understandably during the holiday festivities it may be a bit louder than normal. I will be pleased to visit again.

Experience was good - loud sports bar feeling while eating dinner wasnt what I was looking for. Food was very good. Service average, bus removed dishes from table while others were eating which to me is rude and lends to a feeling of being rushed.

This place is first class all the way. You won’t find a better Italian in that part of Brooklyn. The dishes are a wonderful combination of traditional dishes and creative variations on the classics. Try the stuffed veal chop and it will make your heart sing. The service is wonderful and the restaurant is elegantly decorated. Love love love this place.

Mo was accommodating and a good server. Food was delicious and ambiance was amazing. The decor of the restaurant is subperb, I thought I was in Manhattan. Good vibes. However, there was a baby shower and the loud boisterous music was overwhelming that customers came in to dine, heard the loud music got up and left the restaurant. We couldn’t hear the conversation it was disturbing but we came from the Bronx and we heard about how good that the food was and decided to visit the restaurant. But the manager should have asked the DJ to lower the music.

My family and I went to Ponte Vecchio to celebrate my birthday. A party was running late so they wouldn't able to seat us until the party ended and the room was cleaned and set...approximately 45 - 60 minutes beyond our reservation time. They did however offer us availability in the front of the restaurant, or the yard (both outside.) We generally don't enjoy eating outside because of the possibility of bugs and being either too hot or too cold, but when we saw the yard area we decided it seemed good enough to not entertain waiting up to an hour for the party inside to clear, the room to be cleaned, and tables to be set. The weather was cool enough that we saw not one bug, and when my 6 year old son said he was cold, a waiter brought a heater over and my son was instantly comfortable again. They won me over right there, and we hadn't even tried the food yet. We ordered the fried calamari, grilled octopus, mozzarella en carrozza, and mussels in a slightly spicy red sauce for our appetizers. Everything was superb (I have NEVER enjoyed octopus of any kind, but my fiancé INSISTS I try it every single time he orders it. This was the one and only time I have ever been able to not only swallow it, but truly enjoy it.) Our dinners were just as incredible...chicken saltimbocca, a granted special request of crab and shrimp stuffed sole, seafood pasta in a spicy brandy cream sauce, and sole oreganata were AMAZING! Our waiter and other wait staff were attentive, engaging, and helpful with special requests as well as suggestions. Our dessert, NY style cheesecake cones, followed suit by being absolutely delectable. If anyone is on the fence about trying Ponte Vecchio, don't hesitate...RUN. We will surely be returning.

BIG DISAPPOINTMENT Waiter had NO CLUE whatsoever about the wine. Appetizers: The pear & walnut salad had no pear in it. When we told the waiter, he said "Oh, we are out of pears" The special crab meat appetizer was all mayo Seafood salad shrimp was all iodine Stuffed artichoke also loaded with garlic Fried calamari was delicious. Entrees: Branzino was inedible due to the overwhelming amount of garlic Pasta dishes good, and Veal Valdistano good. We dined early to avoid the crowds.
