Food and atmosphere was wonderful. Our beautiful waitress Anelle had great recommendations. A beautiful dining experience with incredible wine pairings. Highly recommend.

Anelle and Alberto were incredible. Such an intimate restaurant with an educational and rememberable experience. Recommended the no menu 7 course with wine pairing. The best authentic Italian food in NYC.

The best dinner experience I have ever had. This is a must visit in NYC! Ask for Hulya and Alex because they are amazing! We did the Voyage tasting experience. Wine was paired perfectly to each course. Hulya was so sweet & knowledge about all the flavors. My favorite was the lasagna!

Best Italian experience in the city that I've ever had, walked by this gem several times but will be coming back, love their "no menu" option to mix and match seafood and meat dishes.

Anelle was enchanting! Gave us recommendations and knew everything based off a couple of photos.

We had such a wonderful experience, from the food to the service! Anelle was our waitress and went above and beyond. For each course, she took the time to introduce every meal, create excitement, and make us feel taken care of. She was extremely knowledgeable on each dish and we could feel the passion she had behind the food at the restaurant. The food itself was sensational and we savored every bite. We recommend anyone coming to this restaurant to request her as your waitress - you will not be disappointed! We look forward to returning again soon!

The tasting menu was great, phenomenon I must say, but the wine for me was a bit underwhelming or maybe the wine paired with the food isn’t just it. Service was amazing. I totally love it but won’t expect much of the wine. The cocktails glasses was beautiful, not sure if I enjoyed the cocktail or just love the glasses lol

Amazing dining experience! The staff, especially Elio and Alexandra, were super friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. They truly make you feel like you are their friends dining in their home in Italy. Very expansive wine list, beautiful presentation and delicious food. Highly recommend the mare tasting menu. We’ll definitely be back!

The restaurant is a good date night spot on the UWS. The interior design is chic and upscale but the food is definitely overpriced.

I’ve been to most of the upscale Italian restaurants in NYC and this one I’d vote for their vibe > the food. They have beautiful wine wall decorations with their wine picks from more than 1000 wineries worldwide. Food-wise, they do highlight a lot of high-end luxury elements such as caviar, truffles, etc. However, the portions are really small and most of the dishes are overpriced.

Our servers were nice and friendly. They gave us some good recommendations on what to order and was pretty friendly throughout the whole time.

Overall:
3.5/5 food
2/5 price
4/5 service
4/5 vibe
