"The menu at this casual neighborhood Italian restaurant on the Upper East Side lets you customize your sauce and type of pasta. If you pick the creamy vodka sauce, you’re guaranteed to have a very good meal. The only catch is that other people in the neighborhood will have the same idea as you (it gets pretty crowded here), so we recommend coming on the early side or calling ahead and asking if there are any spaces open. There isn't a dedicated bar area for you to sit at solo, but the atmosphere is casual enough that you won't feel weird eating alone at a table in the dining room. " - hannah albertine
