    We loved everything about our experience. Excellent food, and the focaccia is amazing. Every staff member was helpful and welcoming from the minute we walked in the door. The highlight of our night was our server, Conor. We only wish we lived closer so we could visit this great spot more often.

    The service is amazing and the place is beautiful. The food is good just not great. Vitello tonnato is a very skimpy for 24 dollars and has no taste of veal or tuna. It’s very thin pieces of veal covered in Mayo. It doesn’t need parmigiano. The pasta was fine .. not al dente and the tomatoes and garlic not really sugo and a little watery. The Rabbit pappardella was very good but salty. Lemon crema was not panna cotta and it was fresh but nothing special. I would go back because maybe I didn’t order correctly.

    Love this place so much! It has become our "Cheers". Food, ambience, staff 10/10. Special love to Colleen, the amazing assistant manager, as well as Kevin and Marvin, the brilliant mixologists!

    The halibut was the star of the meal. It had a slightly sweet almond crust. The pistachio pesto fusilli was good, but not stellar. The dessert was delicious: crostata of rhubarb and strawberry warm and succulent. This meal was certainly good. The restaurant was busy, and there were several families with small kids present. The prices were in line with many restaurants in the area. A nice place for dinner before a show at the Beacon.

    Delicious from start to finish. The fried artichoke app was incredible as well as the branzino. My friends had the pasta and raved!

    The food and service were outstanding. The Upper West Side desperately needs really good restaurants. The woman who handled our table was actually from Milano. She was really friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about food. All restaurants should have people like her. The dishes were all really tasty. Only the modern music seemed a bit out of place in a classy spot, but that's a minor criticism. My wife and I will definitely be back!
