Elvis RodricksJune 28, 2014The ambience outdoors in the evening was breathtaking. Enjoyed the lamb and the bodini dessert. Not too impressed with their cocktails. Would come back to this bklyn gem.- Lee HoffmanJuly 29, 2017One of the best brunches I've ever had - I don't even eat eggs Benedict and it was one the best things I've ever eaten. French toast was amazing too.
Cassie PanayiotouJune 12, 2018Officially the best Italian pasta dish I’ve ever tasted. Also a stunningly perfect pannacotta. Knowledgeable staff who were able to recommend a wine according to our taste. Lovely warm decor
Start with some olives to nibble on, then I highly recommend the squid ink pasta with cuttlefish, shrimp, seafood ragù and pepper.
nova naomiJune 23, 2018I’m in love with this place and the decoration but not too much with the food. We ordered new zealand lamb chops & Tonarelli (alaskan king crab & zucchini) but I didn’t like much the flavor
Mia AMarch 11, 2017Delicious brunch! Sit in the outdoor area/greenhouse and try the gnocchi, which are different (and better) than what you'd typically expect.
HBOMarch 17, 2016A selection of their cheese is imported daily from Italy. And nothing provides the perfect distraction for an awkward date (as seen on Girls) like a mouthful of Burrata.
Anne HApril 29, 2013One of the best Italian meals I've ever had! We sat in the garden and had extraordinary wonderful food and we will definitely return here. Please ignore "cash only" comments, they accept cards!
Janey ElmgreenOctober 20, 2017Amazing food! We all had pasta and they were all really well done. Authentic and tasty Italian, would definitely return, fantastic
- Fodor's TravelSeptember 9, 2015Ricotta, black truffles, and prosciutto di Parma elevate the eggs Benedict at brunch, when the French toast comes stuffed with apple compote and topped with Amarena cherries. Read more
Nicole ReganJuly 9, 2018Really delicious pasta, friendly and fairly quick service. The patio outside is beautiful too, though you might need to wait to sit there on a nice night.
Jamie AbregoMarch 8, 2014I've been here twice with my girlfriend. Once for brunch and for dinner. The bistecca is awesome. Definitely a place I will come back to. Great food. Great environment.
Dajah DeKattuFebruary 11, 2016The fresh farm organic chicken was amazing. The service wasn't great. The server/host was pretty pleasant at first. But that changed when one of the people in my party opted to change her meal.
Averna USAMay 30, 2012Aurora's bar team won't steer you wrong! The "Caffe' Shakerato" made with Averna, Jamaican Rum, milk, & a shot of espresso is the perfect way to start your evening or wind down a hearty Italian meal.
Michelle WilesNovember 6, 2022Artichoke omelette with whipped ricotta and crunchy chip is that perfect flavor AND texture combo
Ana TrianaAugust 13, 2012The lunch is a memorable experience! Delicious watermelon feta summer salad. Emmanuelle the manager really knows how to provide a laid back yet sophisticated service level.
Ada ChiuNovember 12, 2020Pasta is delicious and flavorful. Outdoor seating is cute although service leaves a bit to be desired
Eduardo RamirezFebruary 24, 2022Everything I tried was delicious but the pappardelle was my favorite. The atmosphere is great too, romantic but not ostentatious.
Stina P.December 15, 2014sit in the greenhouse garden area - particularly on a cozy rainy day - all brunch plates include unlimited coffee !
Valerie PetrovAugust 9, 2014I've had dreams about the pea salad. Summer in a bowl!! Great patio space, too!!
KateJune 17, 2023Delicious! Loved the ambiance, the food, and the service. They have a beautiful outdoor space as well.- I don't usually fux with dessert, but this salted caramel budino is amazing
Ronald CattrysseJune 4, 2017Perfect date spot, get a table outside. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu.
Cameron GidariJanuary 16, 2017Really fantastic spot. I had butternut squash ravioli with oxtail, and it was done to perfection.
Andrea BarrezuetaAugust 11, 2014Beautiful space and food, especially the grilled octopus and the burrata pasta. Deliciousness on a plate 👍
Anastasiia SavinaApril 10, 2016Definitely the spot for sunny Sunday branch! They're very generous for alcohol in cocktails 🍸🍹
CaitlinOctober 23, 2016The food is really good. The squash pasta was so delicious. Make sure you have a reservation
Andy StoneNovember 10, 2013The French toast tastes like the center of a croissant. One of the single best bites of food that I have ever experienced.
Great handmade pastas, the prosciutto benedict is the best thing on the brunch menu.
Daniel GonzalezJanuary 5, 2014Eggs Benedict, one of the best I've ever had... Bloody Mary, weak... Coffee, horrible...
brenna cammeronAugust 6, 2011Happy hour: A quartino (glass and a half) of wine for the price of a glass, AND you get foccacia, cheese & olives. 5-7p every day. AWESOME.
Charles SimicApril 11, 2015Red wine, garden, accommodating staff! Let us in at 5 even though they don't open until 6pm
John DuncanDecember 21, 2015Never seems too crowded. Good food, good drinks, friendly and feels separated while being in Williamsburg.
Salads, brunch, grilled chicken, everything's tasty. I pickup and eat at home with a nice bottle of wine
JulieSeptember 26, 2014Very pretty place for dinner. The pasta is unique, service was great even though it was busy.
Emma WebsterJanuary 1, 2012The french toast at brunch is incredible! And all the food looks good too! This is a fantastic restaurant!
Mady SuquetJune 16, 2018The food was delicious, however the service 👎🏼 not as good. The waiter took our order and never came to our table to check on us but to rush us out of the place as they were turning their shift.
they no longer deliver east of the BQE, even if your household has been supporting this place for a decade. the new williamsburg really stinks.
