Green beans, diced tomatoes & red onions in balsamic vinegar = perfect Springtime appetizer. The gnocchi is light and delicious. Best Italian on the Upper East Side? Limited seating - book in advance.

Ask the chief Giuseppe, what's his recommendation. We ate about 5 dishes, everything was absolutely great. Nice Italian restaurant!

Eat here all the time and have never had a bad meal. Gnocchi is fluffy light and otherworldly. Truffle or gorgonzola sauce recommend.

Great Gorgonzola gnocchi, can't go wrong with any of the pasta dishes, lamb chops, or fish entrees. Wouldn't recommend the scampi.

Great Italian spot. The imported burrata, gnocchi with truffle, and chicken scarpariello are great!

Food is seriously amazing. They make both prosciutto and muzzarella here. Everything is good. Only thing is, it's cash only.

Most amazing Italian food! Make sure you bring cash as they don't accept cards. Don't forget to try the lamb chops

Simply the best. No need to look at the menu, just listen to Chef Giuseppe as he tells you the night's specials.

Amazing food here! Eggplant rollatini is great. Definitely get the chocolate mousse.

Food ranges between fine and bad. The owner is a character, which can be good, or can be awful
