Good polenta fries. Don't ask for ketchup though because that's apparently a crime in an Italian restaurant.
Xavi VergésOctober 28, 2016
Reginette was really good
Khaled AOctober 20, 2013
Try the beef cheeks. It melts & tastes. Pure love.
Amy LeighJuly 1, 2013
Homemade pasta was amazing; however, don't go if you're in a hurry as service is slow. Took 20m for our appetizer and another 30 once we were finished with that for our food to arrive

Inside the chelsea market. Tasty and pricy food.

They bring out the olive oil for the bread like its fine wine. Awesome.

Great food. Service could be better (or what do you say about a waitress texting when you want to order?)

This place offers a beautiful decor but main courses are too many expensive.

Save yourself $25 and eat takeout for lunch instead of sitting down in the restaurant. It's basically the same thing.

Ask for Paolo. He is fun, friendly, knowledgeable, and speaks Italian.
Jess PengMay 20, 2013
The tiramisu is out of this world.

This place is good and the atmosphere is nice too, but kind of overrated for what it offers I think.

New. The menu offers antipasti, pasta dishes, main courses and desserts. There are about a dozen pastas on the menu on any given day, based on what the pasta-makers on the other side are turning out
Katie BertanzettiSeptember 3, 2014
The best food I've EVER had
