Italian Restaurant · Upper East Side · 238 tips and reviews
Ana Pav: So much truffle *drool* on the menu. Gnocchi was incredible. Try and get seated in the garden at the back if you can - feels like you're in West Village, not UES.

Italian Restaurant · Carroll Gardens · 237 tips and reviews
Emily Wilson: A perfect spot for a date. When the weather is warm, there is a lovely garden that you can eat in out back. Don't know which wine to order? Try a carafe of the house red.
Alexandros Plexidas: A bit expensive but the view towards Manhattan is very nice, especially during sunset. Enjoy it with a cocktail in the terrace sitting in a chaise longue.
Indulgent Eats: Eataly's rooftop bar and restaurant is transformed for the summer into Sabbia, with bright decor to make you feel like you're seaside and a coastal menu to pair with the summer vibes.
