    We dined here fairly early, 5:45 reservation (we arrived a few minutes tardy) after a play at Lincoln Center theatre. My mom said it ranked up there with the best meals she’s ever had in New York. Hahahaha she says that a lot. But really, everything about dinner was fantastic: the ambience, the service, the warmth, and the food! Mom had the strozzapreti with pesto, Sis had sea scallops with mushroom risotto, and I had chicken parmigiana a la vodka. I haven’t had chicken parmigiana in years and the waitress said they’re known for it, so I “had” to get it. Everything on point. To top it off we split the lemon pie. Oh em gee that pie with the brûlée finish was superb. Definitely need reservations. This place is worth the crowd. Enjoy!

    We were seated in a small alcove towards the back of the restaurant, so we had a quiet, peaceful meal. Our waiter was friendly, professional, and competent. I ordered Bronzino. He asked if I’d like it served with the head and tail or without. I appreciated the fact that he asked me. Our water glasses were replenished as needed. Also, the waiter knew when to appear and when not to. Our appetizer and entrees were delicious.

    Good experience. Clean and old school Italian theme. Good service and quality of food. Risotto, pasta and salads were awesome. I didn’t like the pizza, I am not into the paper thin crust type.

    Wonderful experience, we arrived half an hour early and still had the best table in the house. Our server Zoran was great, very friendly and professional. Lastly, the food was exceptional starting with an appetizer, right through our main course and then dessert, chocolate mousse, A+ all the way!!!
