User Reviews for Minetta Tavern

The Minetta is an old friend. It doesn't change, but it gets a little more frayed around the edge. Just like the waiters. Nice and comfy in the back dining room -- they set up with starched tableclothes and make you feel welcome and don't push you. Wine list great. Beers are good too. Good pasta, just nothing exciting. You can spend 3 or 4 hours here, and emerge into the night of the village as if you've come back from another era. Much better than Chumleys or that horrible white horse tavern.
Pros: atmosphere, welcoming feeling
Cons: food is average and a bit expensive but you came here for the place, not the food

Came for dinner before visitin the Cafe Wha across the street. I just loved the food, the decor and the service. I know this place has been here forever, why isn't it more famous?
