    The cocktails are incredible-the Austin is the perfect summer cocktail: titos vodka, st. Germaine, proseco, and pomegranate with a twist of orange

    Pasta was so good. Best sauce I've had in a long time. Warm bread and butter. Kind service. I'm a fan.

    Cute, quaint, homely vibes. Homely cooking to match. Pasta was good but the love feels a little overhyped.

    7.5/10. Brunch menu was so interesting and had items I had never seen on other brunch menus. Child friendly but can get quite crowded.

    No resy, total mob scene, noisy, and absolutely delicious describe the decade-plus-old Brooklyn Italian. Be aware that there's a more accessible wine bar attached. [Eater 38 Member] Read more

    No wait, food was quick. Sunday night. Food was good. Fairly inexpensive. Better than that stupid eataly place in the city everyone has an orgasm over.

    At the table next to me two Japanese ladies stop the waiter. "You know, this is the best pasta, ever," one says, "No, really," says the other. I think they might be right.

    They serve the full menu at the wine bar, so try getting a table there if you can't get into the main dining room.

    Don’t sit at the bar. The stools are cheap and uncomfortable. However, do order the heirloom tomatoes. Simple and delicious.

    The food here is delicious, but the bathroom? The bathroom is the nicest and most quaint restaurant bathroom in New York.

    If the wait's long, put your name on the list and hit its sister wine bar. Once the food arrives, though, nothing else will matter. Guard your plate - spaghetti with clams is irresistably delicious!

    A bit overrated imo. The risotto was mediocre and the wifey's ravioli was fair at best. Good wine selection and full bar. But for a fantastic meal you can do better elsewhere in the slope.
