    The best part about Becco was the food. We started with the calamari and spicy tomato sauce.Calamari was done perfectly , not too chewy and spicy tomato sauce was a great accompaniment adding the right amount of heat. Our entree of organic chicken with mushroom risotto was delicious. Tender juicy meat with crisp skin and the mushroom risotto was buttery , creamy and flavorful . Second entree ordered was grilled pork chops cooked in a variety of peppers both vinegar and fresh. Large portions that were very satisfying. Complimentary bread and salad was a nice touch ! Now the rest, which I hope they address - the front of the house can use some finesse. I understand a busy restaurant but with a reservation there should be a little nicety involved. We had a 15 - 20 minute wait despite the reservation and when we inquired about how much longer since there isn’t any place to wait without being in the way, the girl could hardly look up from her computer screen to answer and was almost rude in response. Not a plus. No attempt to be courteous. We are an older couple early 70’s, but we still enjoy dining out and a seating area with not ripped seats pushed against a traffic area to accommodate the wait would be nice since it was raining outside. All in all the restaurant decor can use a refresh since it’s quite worn and very noticeable.

    Wonderful menu and outstanding food! The service was quite slow. They didn’t take our order for at least 30 minutes. Once the order was placed the food arrived rather quickly. Would visit again to try more things on the menu!

    We were seated on the second floor out on the enclosed porch. It was so much nicer as the dining rooms we passed through on our way to our table were extremely busy and noisy. Our space was PERFECT as was the service and of course the food. It was the highlight of our trip to NYC during the holiday season!

    Food was good. My husband had the all you can eat pasta and I had an appetizer. We shared a bottle of wine. They warned us that the pasta is not shared. I only wanted to try each (not have a shared meal) but felt like a criminal when I tried a noodle. They had waiters constantly watching. Not a comfortable atmosphere to be in. Would not recommend.
