excellent food

Noisy restaurant-we were five ladies-table next to us complained to waiter that we talked too loudly-he asked us to shush-we went to mangr. who said"what do you want me to do?" If we were with men the waiter would never approached us. The waiter should have spoken to the mngr., not us. Stupidly, we gave him a tip. We should have given him nothing(he insulted us, we should have insulted him). Shame on the restaurant!!!Because of how we were treated, we will never return. We were not any more noisy than what it took to be heard.

• Pros: excellent food
• Cons: terrible accoustics-extremely noisy-poorly treated

Closing Soon

I've lived across from Scarlatto since it opened and must have eaten there dozens of times.

It's an example of a good idea gone really bad over time.

They started out okay, with decent and somewhat overpriced dishes.

However, the kitchen changed, waiters changed, bartenders changed. Not for the better.

Today, the restaurant is pretty much done. I strongly recommend you take your business somewhere worth your hard-earned recession dollars.

• Pros: Not many left
• Cons: Food, Service, Ambience

Great little Italian restaurant in Theatre district!

My husand and I had the best experience at Scarlatto. The restaurant was packed before a show and the service was exceptional. The food was so good! Thanks for a wonderful night before the Theatre! Try the Tortellini in vodka sauce and the warm apple pie!
