This restaurant never disappoints. The food is really wonderful, the cocktails are great, and it’s a great Manhattan feel. Ambience in a vintage building and small enough to maintain some intimacy. It can get a little loud as we were there during peak dining hours on Saturday night. But all that said it’s great. On the high end of moderate price wise. We split a salad, two entrées, two cocktails, a piece, and tiramisu. $172 with a tip. But again, well worth it.

Have been eating at A’Vucchella restaurant for 10 years….Friday night’s dinner and service were outstanding. The recommended wine by our server Joe was excellent and just what we had hoped for. Pasquale’s attention to detail and quality ingredients have made this restaurant one of our favorites.

We came for dinner before a cans light concert and had an awesome experience! Love the warm wood smell of the pizza oven! We made reservations which we may not have needed since we ate early but later when we left, the place was pretty full! Service was very attentive! And the food was delicious! I had the shrimp pasta special while my husband had the pork shank. Plus the caprese salad to start things off with was delicious too! Tomatoes were very tasty! We ended our meal with coffees! And we left in enough time to cross the street for the concert! We’ll be back!

We went before a concert it was very close to the venue, they don’t have parking but we found it on the road. Was early for dinner so it wasn’t busy. The staff and food were good. I’m not in the area but I’d eat there again if I am.
