Decent Place. Food mostly ok (clam chowder yuck) service good.

by serind at Citysearch

Atmosphere and table was fine. Flat bread was delicious. Cocktail way overpriced. My New England clam chowder was chewy and boring, FLAT. Two of our party had Halibut with broccolirab ravioli. Fish ok, ravioli excellent. I had Beef Braciole, which was basic home cooking, okay but not enough sauce- if I can make it just as well and 10% of price I am not impressed.. flan good, ricotta cheese cake very tasty. service good. I do not know NYC prices as I am from Philly, but some things expensive, and overall tab was pricey for value.

• Pros: qucik seat and service
• Cons: price of cocktail oww.

Don't know how we've missed out on this gem

by mmm0802 at Citysearch

Husband and I had dinner there last night. Very quiet as we went rather late. Service from Jackie and all her helpers was excellent. My husband had beef carpaccio and said it was the best he had ever had in his life. Very well presented and huge portion. A special smoked salmon pasta along with spaghetti carbonara were very tasty. All in all a very good experience. Looking forward to our next visit.

• Pros: Everything
• Cons: Remember to include all ingredients in dishes. Hate peas in carbonara.

GREAT PIZZA AND ROMANTIC!!!!

This small romantic lil spot on the Upper West Side has been one of my favorite restaurants for years. Great Pizza as well as other classic Italian favorites. Not overpriced. Good Service.

Best tortellini

by rickbalou at Citysearch

The tortellini daniella is the best! Great portions, great flavor. Truly authentic cuisine. Wait staff is courteous and knowledgeable. Good wine menu, and very good prices for midtown manhattan. Wait staff quickly brings foccacia bread to your table as soon as you sit down. The ambience is nice and it's an easy walk from the 1 train.

• Pros: Romantic place, great food, it delivers!
• Cons: Can get busy and a little crowded. NOT FOR KIDS!

Cuisine may or may not be worth the agita

by wudzee at Citysearch

The food was very, very good. The ambience was reasonably nice, though with paper tablecloths. However the hostess was at best unprofessional, talking incessantly and loudly on her cell, and seating people only when she couldn't avoid it while the one waiter was handling eight tables alone with a fair amount of effort. One cook was handling the kitchen. Again, if you can handle the agita, the "as good as home-cooked by the ladies in the Italian neighborhood where I grew up" food was excellent.

• Pros: very good food, good prices
• Cons: poor hostess
