    Great place to people watch, be part of the in-crowd. If you're worried about prices...keep walking. This place is NOT economically friendly. Good place to spot some of BravoTV's finest.

    Alvaro made it easy to spend an evening sipping wine and snacking on prosciutto e melone, the atmosphere is so laid-back and Nello is really the best place in Manhattan to unwind after a long day

    Expensive and excellent. Good service, well made italian plates and very comfortable, yet, I prefer Scalinatella if you go for the food. If you look for a hot Upper East Side spot, go to Nello

    There are a very extensive wine list, delicious Italian food and wide variety of seafood for those who are into it. The service there is awesome, too, and the Italian atmosphere... Highly recommend it

    Nello gives you lots of exclusive options to go by. First, you can book a table for up to 20 people, a party size, while also selecting the dishes you want to be served and when. Great place

    I love Italian food, so Nello, for me, is a match made in heaven. The prices are great and the meals are even tastier. The place also looks great and classy. Recommend them

    I visited last weekend with my friends had decent food and service. The price was convenient, and our Grilled calamari was neatly and freshly served by Stefano and Alvaro who waited on us

    Italian food is my favorite cousin and Nello is one of the best options available near Central Park. Delicious menu and large wine cart - these are the main reasons to visit this place more and more

    Want to try the best seafood and meats you have to try it at Nello. I ordered Veal Milanese today. It was perfectly cooked. I like their employees too. They do their job with passion as same as a chef

    The restaurant is nice and fancy without making you feel out of place. I loved the homemade lobster ravioli and veal Milanese, everyone else in my party seemed to enjoy their meals as well

    The most delicious risotto with white truffle I have ever tried! Real Italian homemade gnocchi! Sommelier helped to choose good and tasty wine. Pleasant interior and benevolent waiters. Recommend

    Chic dining that transports you to another world.Anything you have a taste for.More importantly dining at Nello is about immersing yourself in an incredible atmosphere than checking off Michelin stars

    I love the art gallery on the wall, the environment is beautiful, but most importantly, for me is the food. I enjoyed every bite. Top service. Thanks to the fantastic staff

    I was amazed by the quality food and service. It's hard to find a place which would have both delicious food and polite staff nowadays it seems, but Nello is exactly like that.

    Alvaro had many customers to take care of but always made me feel like I had his full attention. He practically brought out my risotto with white truffle as soon as I ordered it.

    We were sitting outside, and it was hot under the heaters, even though it was pretty cold outside. Amazing dessert! Will go to try the brunch.

    More about the whole experience than the food but the food is pretty good to. Don't expect to be treated that good until you ordered some really good wine. On my second visit they treated really well.

    Delicious bellinis. Overpriced to the point of ridiculous. Have a blowout before you go if you want to blend in with the crowd.

    Nello Ugly Tomato Salad is my favorite appetizer which always precedes me digging my hands into any of the entrées on the menu

    Nothing. This place is sexist. The owner bans all unaccompanied women from sitting at the bar because he claims they must be “sex workers.” Unaccompanied men are allowed to sit at the bar.
