With over 17 different types of baked-to-order lasagnas and plenty of vegan and gluten-free options, we are Chelsea’s go-to place for all of New York’s Italian cravings. We have our socially distanced outdoor heated section and our full bar sets the scene for weekly Happy Hour or post-work drinks.

Great service, affordability and great Italian food. Went there with my husband and sister and had a great time. My only concern was the music was a little loud.

It goes without saying that I LOVE this restaurant! Everything about it is superb. The food, the service, the staff, the owner, it's all 100% fantastic. I don't travel 10+ miles to have dinner or brunch at just ANY restaurant. There was only ONE choice on where to have brunch for my friend John's birthday. Only One Choice. 😁

Good food, good vibes, very good for date night. Cash is better because they charge extra with card. Even though I always tip in cash because all waiters get taxed 40% on card off of every transaction they get on tips.

Amazing food and excellent service. We were a party of 12 and Max, along with the other staff, were amazing. All of the staff work extra hard to make sure all are having a great experience. The food and drink, while not cheap, were provided in healthy portions so there is more value to the restaurant than at first blush. Our party of twelve orders a variety of items on the menu and they.liked all of their selections. I hope management rewards the staff very well because they the differentiator - the coordination among Max, the bartender, and the other wait staff was a well oiled machine. Would come back here without hesitation.

Took a group of friends for a birthday brunch. The service was amazing and it is a great value for brunch. The food was decent but definitely lacked seasoning. I asked for extra garlic in my Alfredo and there was zero garlic in my Alfredo. Lol

We were a party of seven and sat outside - hence the noise level was quiet. We tried five of the lasagnas on the menu, pasta carbonara, and a steak. I think they were all great, but next time, I will order lasagna for sure. We also had a few drinks, they were light on alcohol but still good.

The food was basically not edible. When it came out it didn’t even smell like food. It smelled and tasted like a chemical. I sent the initial alfredo back and ordered scampi and the shrimp came out with veins. No garlic taste at all. I took one bite and was done.

The bartender she was lovely and made great cocktails. The appetizers were yummy, one of my friends had the chicken Francaise was amazing. I had the lasagna with meatballs - was over cooked and meatballs were small and most likely frozen. My other friend had the the short rib lasagna she said was ok. the deserts were great and our waiter was very friendly and adorable.
