    Fresh spaghettini with blue crab--al dente and flavorful. Heirloom tomato salad with grilled peach: refreshing. Knowledgeable, attentive and fun bartender team. Try fiori darancoo, a bourbon cocktail.

    Begin with the butter-poached oysters topped with caviar or the "mare e monte" (a marriage of scallops, truffles, and bone marrow) before moving on to the toothsome pastas or the robust veal chop. Read more

    The room is soulless, but Michael White produces some of the best haute Italian cooking in town. One of our best restaurants for 2012!

    Impeccable service. We order the five course menu and was devine. Starts with crudo and caviar, next house made Spaghetti, then Lamb (the best), manchego cheese and Chocolate dessert. We recommend.

    Amazing ambiance, even better food - awesome Michelin star option for a special occasion. Presentation and service are impeccable. Spiral staircase and rose tree in Christmas time are a treat.

    Quiet and polished, the venue is ideal for power breakfasts, lunches and business dinners. On the menu are dishes like lobster velouté with shaved chestnuts and black truffle...Chef Michael White Read more

    Modern Italian cuisine, fun cocktails, impressive wine list, cool ambiance & attentive service. Mouthwatering menu made selection quite difficult. I highly recommend the Uovo, Granchio and Agnolotti.

    One of the best restaurants I have ever been to. I didn't think it possible to find new versions of old European dishes so comforting. Great pasta. Some time with the smart/great bartenders is a must.

    Beautiful decor and great service. Similar menu style and dishes to Marea, but Marea still reigns. 🏆Pictured: crab spaghetti/ Favs: Black ink pasta

    Michael White's ode to expense accounts has great pasta (obviously), generous scotch pours and exceptionally executed appetizers. Great ambience for all you midtown types.

    Anything and everything. We have had the spallina. The gnocchi, the capes are. The lobster soup. It’s all great plus the service and wine. You will never go wrong here.

    Ambience, service and food are all amazing. The seafood pasta and main courses are cooked to perfection, and the desserts are decadent.

    One of my favorite burgers in Manhattan. I always eat at a table across from the bar. I’m there every few months. Fun place to take friends to catch up.

    We visited it during NYC Rest.Week and were so disappointed. Chicken mousse was prepared ahead as it had crusts on the edges, salmon had bones(!!!) inside and try to cut a steak with a dull knife.

    The White Label Burger features a custom dry aged blend from Pat LaFrieda and comes topped with Nueske's bacon, white American cheese (of course!), pickles and pommes dauphines. $22.

    The Agnolotti with fava beans is one of the best I have ever had. The prix fixe is a great way to explore the menu. Sommeliers are some of the best and will help you pair your entire experience.

    Take in the beautiful and swanky décor from the bar as you enjoy one of their imaginative cocktails! The Melone e Prosciutto is pure perfection, as is the Apertivo.

    Pleasantly surprised! Agnolotti veal parcels are a must get and the poached lobster. Get the fluke crudo-it's smothered in caviar and sits in a pool of Mayer lemon and cream

    Good food, absolutely, excellent presentation, solid service great cocktails. Liked the chocolate desserts, sweetbreads, octopus. Good, but definitely not great.

    The $29 express lunch is worth it. You have to sit at the counter, but if you are alone or only two, it works!

    The Trofie Nero is definitely not your ordinary pasta dish. The squid ink has a light consistency and is full of character from the crustacean tomato filled sauce topped with softly prepared scallops.

    Michael White's compromise between super-fancy fine dining and his more casual restaurants; it strikes excellent balance between the two.

    seafood takes the center stage here. dishes here are lighter and fluffier than other MW joints. great for summer time dining. some favorites: uovo, granchio, torchon.. and any of the fish entrees!

    Known for its succulent and tender lamb, restaurateur Michael White certainly hit the mark. While there were several choices of the lamb, we opted for the lamb chops, which were masterfully flavored.

    Slide up to the bar and point to anything on the menu. You'll feel as if you've died and gone to heaven. Need to ramp up their sparkling wine selections but otherwise a perfect Saturday evening.

    Taste beautifully crisp sheets of "panzanella," spaghetti w/ saffron, & bay-crusted cod. For dessert, get La Religieuse. – Green Guide Editor
