We were there to get together before a funeral and it was a perfect quiet spot to talk (although we may have been loud lol!) We were catching up and the food made it great, especially the seafood risotto. Then you brought out a surprise dessert and it was both pleasing aesthetically and gastronomically! It will be a fave restaurant when I visit NY.
I had one of the nightly specials. The food was delicious!
There was plenty of social distance.
This was my husband's and I first visit to Risotto under this present owner. Of course, for the last forty years we have been to the various restaurants that have occupied this location. This is the only one that has the potential to be a five star venue. As an appetizer we ordered the chef's signature dish: a pasta in a cognac, cream sauce that is prepared table side.It was truly outstanding!!!! Will definitely make this a staple on future visits. One of our entrees was the hanger steak served with a gorgonzola risotto. It was served on a beautiful, oval platter and the steak was cooked to perfection. The risotto ( another signature gift) was a disappointment. It was truly bland.....lacked both cheese and salt and did not have the creamy consistency that is characteristic of risotto. However, next time I will try a different flavor of risotto......perhaps one with mushrooms might be more to my liking. On a positive note, the two waitresses were both very pleasant and professional. This is a restaurant that pays attention to detail.....even the evoo served with bread was ofexceptional quality. Which is probably why we were surprised by the
Less than ordinary wine list. It wasn't just that it was small (That's understandable when you have limited storage) but it was not well thought out by someone that knows wine. We're ardent wine drinkers so We're used to paying top dollar for good wine. However, one of your selections (a med. Prices wine at about $45) you are charging $160. This is a wine that another restaurant in the area is selling for under $100. Would gladly pay you $160 for a fine wine but your list didn't have any. Rework that list.....add some special wines weekly and 5 stars will be in your future.
This Restaurant is one of the best around

Such a pleasant dining experience. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere, food and all the staff. Everything was spot on for my husbands birthday. Thank you so much!
Great food, great service. The place should be improved, it's pretty simple, need a bit of decoration, but the food is worth it.
Overall a very good experience. The food was phenomenal.
Excellent restaurant, food is well prepared and delicious.
Phenomenal!! Very spread out and food and service were terrific!
Great food, cocktails and staff.
The service staff was excellent as well as the food. We were there for a birthday celebration it was the perfect choice for a small gathering.
They accommodated me with the table I requested outside. The service was great and the food amazing. We were a table of 5 and everyone enjoyed their food. We will definitely return.
Very nice experience
The food and the experience overall was outstanding! Definitely worth every penny!
We took our family to this place for my daughters birthday
It was the first time we were there .. food was amazing staff was professional and friendly and dessert was out of this world !!
Highly recommend for a celebration of any kind or for just a dinner you can truly enjoy !!
Nice neighborhood restaurant. Sat outside due to Covid. Service was really attentive and the Osso Buco and Chicken Parm were very well done.
The food was excellent. We both had specials of the day and both were visually appealing and tasty. We sat outdoor. Servers were prompt and courteous.
A welcome difference. From the Sangria with a Sangria ice pop in the glass to the Cacio Pepe made table side to the amazing dessert presentation, it was a wonderful meal and evening. I highly recommend this gem!
I’ve been here many years ago did not remember much about it went here tonight after reading reviews very pleased food excellent service excellent ambience inside somewhat plain but the food and staff made up for it
Amazing experience! As always
We sat outdoors because of Covid. Other than the trains passing through was a very nice quiet evening. Service very good and good very good. Drink good as well.
The food is very good and I would recommend the restaurant. It was only my second time to this restaurant, as it is not near my home, but both times the food has really been good so it is worth a detour. The staff is friendly and attentive. As with all really good food the cost is slightly more than a less exceptional restaurant, but I think the quality of the food justified the cost.
Excellent birthday lunch for a work friend of many years. The food was superb and the Birthday tiramisu delicious and fun!! Lovely.
Food and service were average. Prices a tad high for what you get. Music playing was loud and unnecessary.
Delightful and unexpected. A great place to eat and relax. Will return.
The entire staff was very pleasant and helpful. Room felt quite crowded--tables fairly close together and it was a bit noisy until some guests started to leave.
Food was fine, though honestly not raveworthy---Risotto had a lot of flavor, with a nice taste of garlic and cheese. Other options were fine. They serve desserts with a pot of dry ice, so it comes out with an exciting smoky presentation. We were watching many diners get the tartufo and were excited for our turn, but when we ordered, they were out of it :( -- Disappointing, though that happens occasionally.
Will try again another day, to see if we find other food choices more to our liking.
Great Risotto and neighborhood gem. First time there, the mussels were excellent, fresh, well seasoned,
The veal and the shrimp francesse were both excellently prepared. The risotto prepared at the table was a fun thing to see... small store front type restaurant... but the noise level was exceptionally good, esp. on a Sat. night! Will go back... should have had the tartuffo for dessert!!
Food was excellent and very fresh. Ambiance was a bit tough - small space which is fine but lighting tough and several tables not ideal.
I have been trying to get here for months! and it ws sooo well worth the wait! There were 4 in our party, so I REALLY wanted to try their version of the Caico Pepe table side. It did NOT disappoint! its was delicious! and perfect amount of this rich pasta being slit into four for an app! I had the grilled salmon w roasted potatoes and grilled veggies that was wonderful! My husband the cavatelli was delicious but a little mushy to my husbands liking. (but thats his preference). two our our diner companions at the Special lamb Rigatoni Bolanase that was delicious and the other the lamb shank that she ate very morsel! We shared a wonderful bottle red wine, and unfortunately were tooo full for dessert! but we WILL be back for another wonderful meal, as there are MANY items I would like to try on this delicious menu! Cant wait! oh, and our wait staff could not have been ore gracious or attentive! It was a wonderful evening all around!
We enjoyed the food. The two men who provided service were great. It was special to have the cacio and pepe prepared at the table and have the dry ice fountain with dessert. Great food - as well as fun - who would complain about that. We brought a couple from Newport. RI and they loved it all.
Great neighborhood find. Food was great. Service was outstanding. Great wine list.
Loved it and glad we found it!!
My husband and I enjoyed THE most delicious meal on Valentine’s Day. It was our first visit to Risotto and we will definitely be back!
What can I say about this place except “Oh my God!!” The food is out of this WORLD DELICIOUS! The risotto is superb, the wait staff are made up up such a great crew! Everything from start to finish was fantastic! Can’t wait to go back again!
Wonderful local restau
their mushroom risotto was excellent - not too rich, just right! The surprise dessert treat was a great touch!
We've been to this restaurant at least five times in the past 5 months. In total, at least 15 different people have tried it with my wife and I. EVERYONE rates it 5 STARS, "The BEST IN Westchester!". We love this restaurant so much, there have been times when we returned the very next night! We can't wait to try more menu items. The following are ALL OUTSTANDING:
o We shared the "Table-Side Cacio Pepe" with Fettuccini (instead of Risotto) as an appetizer - Outstanding!
o Special Salad of the Night - Fresh Figs with a Balsamic Glaze and Goat Cheese over Romaine Lettuce - Outstanding!
o Soup of the Day - Broccoli Rabe with White Beans and Sausage - Outstanding!
o Pork Osso Bucco - Outstanding!
o Cioppino (mussels, clams, shrimp, calamari, potato, fennel, stewed tomato, seafood brodo served with grilled ciabatta bread) - Outstanding
o Chicken Marsala - Outstanding
o Chicken over Spinach Fettuccini - Outstanding
o Pollo Quattro Formaggio with polenta - Outstanding
o Tartuffo - Outstanding
o Tiramisu - Outstanding
Be sure to save room for dessert. When you order, ask that they serve it on a Lazy Susan for an extra special surprise!
Besides the food, the owners Kevin & Jocelyn and the wait & bus staff are all wonderful, friendly, and attentive. Please, "Tell It Only to your BEST Friends & Family" so we can still get a reservation. This place is Westchester's Best Kept Secret!
The food was very good. It was just a little heavy on the garlic. It’s a cute neighborhood place.
So fantastic. Flaming pasta cacio pepe in a cheese wheel. Staff is super attentive an PLEASANT. Owner Kevin is a wonderful host. Fun night any day of the week. Put it on your short list!
They do wine dinners monthly!!!
We always have a wonderful experience at Risotto. The staff is friendly, the food is delicious, and the presentation is incredible! It was a perfect way to spend Christmas Eve - thank you again to Kevin and the whole crew for another fabulous meal!
Great Food and very quiet nice dining room. Choices of Risotto are really good.
