The desserts were all very good but nothing to write home about. ”
- “
The desserts were very rich and savory. ”
- “
it was the best ravioli ever plump, al dente, stuffed with mushrooms and drowned in a truffle cream sauce. ”
- “
Between the noise and the bad dinner we passed on desert and left. ”
- “
We each had an appetizer, pasta dish, entree and desert as well as a few moderately priced bottles of wine ($50 range) each a recommendation - quite good - I recommend the Fettucini Al Fredo as a pasta dish - melted in my mouth. ”

If you don't wish to miss dessert, order smaller portioned dishes, for one does not leave here feeling skimped. ”

They ended up giving us a free dessert so after everything, we decided not to make a big fuss about the check. ”

We couldnt even make it out for drinks in this fabulous Greenwich Village neighborhood because we were so full! ”
- “
After waiting 45 minutes for our table we then received our exorbitantly priced wine which the waiter then spilt, our Caesar salad was soggy but our main courses were delicious just not worth $55 for veal chop. ”
- “
Waiters kept whispering to each other and repeatedly coming over to suggest that we order wine. ”
- “
The wine lists are great, and the Food is amazing! ”
- “
Be sure to order some wine as they have a huge selection. ”

We each had an appetizer, pasta dish, entree and desert as well as a few moderately priced bottles of wine ($50 range) each a recommendation - quite good - I recommend the Fettucini Al Fredo as a pasta dish - melted in my mouth. ”
- “
When we sat down, they kept pressuring us to order wine despite our not wanting to. ”
- “
My advice - find a great neighborhood Italian spot, order twice as much to drink as you would at Il Mulino for half the price, and laugh all the way home at the poor suckers still waiting to be seated. ”
- “
If you want a good wine, bring a letter of credit. ”
- “
We left and went to Blue Hill who sat us immediately and had fantastic service, food, and wine. ”
- “
If you plan on drinking a decent wine think $150 minimum for wines other restaurants sell for less. ”

Everything was perfect---the food, teh atmosphere, and the service! ”

- “
They also feed you a lot of good stuff before you order, like salami, zuchini in garlic oil, garlic bread, cheeze. ”

The food was a bit better than average overall, but not worth the price, and the horrible service will ensure that I will never return to this restaurant. ”
- “
By far the best Italian food in NY ”

- “
The waiter are skilled at switching guests to high priced options of mediocre unimaginative food. ”

And worst of all, even the still-high quality of most dishes can't balance the sad clientele, which was an inordinate number of rude, loud, aggressive tri-state imports, aspiring to achieve low-class Sopranos schmaltz, and failing even at that. ”
- “
awful service, decent food, cramped atmosphere ”
