    One of the most memorable meals I've had in a while. Every course is a work of art! Be sure to try the black garlic bucatini if it's available. Share it with a friend and save room for dessert!

    Piora’s intimate, romantic dining room-featuring leather tables and unpolished marble-overlooks a serene private garden while creative and delicately presented dishes pair with a 300-label wine list. Read more

    Make sure to order the Côte de boeuf. Highlight of the already fantastic meal. Also liked the black bucatini with Dungeness crab.

    In a neighborhood packed with amazing restaurants, this new spot really stands out. Aside from some delicious cocktails, the food is outstanding, especially the monkey bread, bucatini, and the duck.

    Came here for the chef's tasting and it's instantly one of my favorites. The deconstruction and with play with ingredients is interesting and delicious. Must try!

    The eclectic menu includes things like scallops with chanterelles, duck confit, barbecued octopus, English pea angolotti with truffles, and suckling pig with radish and apples.

    Monkey bread is a winner. Also the Rohan duck was some of the best I've ever had: cooked on the rarer side, meaty and flavorful, with lovely crispy skin. If you like duck it is one you should try.

    Start with an order of the monkey bread that's served with both whipped rosemary lardo and seaweed butter. Then order at least one of Cipollone's superlative pastas. Read more

    That timeless work of beef art is the cote de boeuf from Piora in NYC. It's meant for two, but you really shouldn't let that happen. Now watch the video to see how the monster is made. Read more

    Grab after dinner drinks at Piora. Try the infused digestifs, like Calvados laced with Honey Crisp apples ($12), or order off-the-menu cognac infused with raisins ($18). Read more

    Great spot!!! From the drink at the bar to the desert all works... The Asian influence gives the food an interesting twist. The octopus and the duck are highlights next to the cote de boeuf!

    Elegant West Village restaurant where the creative salads and starters truly shine. We enjoy the front bar area for a less formal atmosphere.

    Favorite restaurant in the city. Perfect service. Ask handsome Kyle to pick out a wine. Market salad, any pasta. Entrees change regularly, you can't go wrong.

    Second course of the tasting menu, amberjack crudo with rangpur lime and radish sitting on top of avocado slice. Looks good and tastes even better.

    Def check out the winter citrus menu! The beet agnolotti with citrus poppy seed sauce top with beet crumbs is outstanding!

    We live for Chef Chris Cipollone’s food. If you can’t eat the entire menu (shame on you!), then make sure you get the Monkey Bread, Carrots, Octopus, Tortellini, and the Duck.

    Monkey bread is ridiculously addicting, pastas are on point, and I had the best pork chop of my life here!

    must get the P&T for smokey whiskey lovers. Pair with the monkey bread, market veggie apps. Get two of the desserts because they are tiny. #imfat #sogood

    Restaurateur Simon Kim and Chef Chris Cipollone have a winner with Piora. Find Italian and Korean-inspired dishes, such as the Scallops with Sweet Corn and Rigatoni with Duck.

    The cocktails here are awesome. For food, the monkey bread with seaweed butter & lardo was addictive, & the pork belly with perfectly crisp skin was pretty sensational.

    “Technique serves deliciousness, rather than distracting from it, in the suckling-pig entrée, which is presented like a meat bonbon.” Read more

    Very good food and drinks! Overall it was excellent but the desserts were a bit lacking. Nice place. Service was good but could be slightly better for a 1 Michelin star restaurant

    lovely restaurant with good food and great service, but definitely do not be tempted by the cote de boeuf. it's under seasoned and crazy expensive.

    After having about half the menu (including all of the pastas), my biggest take away is that the carrots are a must-order -- even the guy that hated carrots at our table liked them!

    The food can be quite good, service is excellent, but the loud dining room is offputting.
