Ampia Rooftop Restaurant

This place is amazing! The food is delicious! However this second time I was there the server was not good at all, reason why don’t give it 5 stars. The last time our server she was amazing! But last night this guy was absent, we had to call him over many times, I asked for ice it never came I had to ask the busboy! He seem uninterested, like he didn’t want to be there. He was tending other tables but ours it was as if we were eating there for free. This type of staff makes you not want to go back. It’s a shame since the food is so good, the ambience is spectacular. We chose not to leave a tip and he followed us to the bathroom to tell us we didn’t leave a tip and was insisting on it. Like are you serious? You forgot about us, we had to ask other people to help us and you have the audacity to demand a tip? That’s just crazy.

My favorite dish was the octopus appetizer. Ambience was beautiful. It was raining so we couldn't go on the roof. Service was very tentative. Lobster ravioli was second. Fried calamari was lightly battered and perfectly cooked with delicious marinara sauce.

Superb restaurant with excellent cuisine prepared and served by a wonderful staff who are very welcoming, courteous, professional and attentive. The dinning area is very beautiful and spacious, and additionally they have a rooftop with a stunning views and capsules for cold months. The rooftop is a perfect place for parties where you will find a bar and music. The food was marvelous as was the presentation. We have ordered so many different dishes and you definitely should try salmon and their desserts! As for cocktails the Aphrodite is my favorite!

It’s a shame so many people had bad experiences. I really enjoyed my time here. I went mid-March on a Sunday evening when pandemic restrictions were still heavily in effect - at 50% dining capacity, I think. I was able to dine on the rooftop in the private heated tent and the service was excellent all night. We arrived at 7:45pm and never left until closing time at 11pm. The food was great and the drinks were amazing! The decor and ambiance were *chef’s kiss*! Would definitely recommend and return here ⭐️

Tldr; poor service, decent food, okay drinks, pretty place, dog! Upon our first arrival, the host downstairs wasn't super friendly. We had a reservation at 7:30 and weren't seated till 8 pm. There was at least a cute area to wait and a dog we could pet. Our server started the conversation asking where my friend and I are from (we're both Asian). When we said we live in the city, he insisted on asking "where are you really from?" Once we gave him the answer he wanted, he told us we didn't look it and he thought we were Filipino. Very off-putting start to our dinner. I got the sunset sangria, which tasted only like wine & I ended up not being able to finish it. We started with the calamari which was okay, but a bit chewy. We got two of the gnocchi dishes (one white sauce & one red). I'm pesceterian and my dish didn't list meat, but it ended up including meat. So my friend and I ended up going 50/50 with our dishes. They were decent, although i ended up feeling sick / allergic so i had to stop eating. When it came to paying the bill, the server brought the wrong check that was much more expensive. Our meal cost around $120 for 2 drinks, 1 appetizer, 2 pasta entrees. Overall the vibes were very pretty & nice area to explore, but wouldnt go back with the high costs & poor service.

Wow. Went there for Brunch, and was floored by the wonderful view and ambience.. didn't have a ton of interaction with the waitress, which was compounded by the fact that the menu was prix fixe (but the rest of the menu was available)... so I could not say if she was great or not but she was nice and my food was prompt. And let's talk about the food! Wow the lobster scrambled eggs though a slight tinge on the dry side were amazing! My girlfriends benedict was excellent. But the Gnocchi! Omg phenomenal! That amazing mouth feel has been perfected at ampia.. the one with the crispy speck(prosciutto) on top... fantastic. I heard the Gnocchi trio is fire also. This place is a stunner.. definitely a place you want to bring a date or friends who are visiting from out of town. Go there asap, Enjoy!

Beautiful contemporary rooftop dining. Nice energetic crowd. The view while sitting up there was really nice. Kinda felt as if you're in a NYC movie/TV scene. The service and staff here are great as they treat every customer as if they're someone important. While dining here you would think your bill would be high but the prices here are very reasonable. I ordered the lobster roll and it was pretty damn good. I will be back!

I’d almost give it 5 stars just for the decor and ambiance, but the prices are too high for average food and average cocktails to give it more than 4. Would go back to get drinks at the bar and enjoy the space and views, but not for dinner. The gnocchi was great and crab cake panini was good too, but not good enough for the $25+ prices. Note that it’s a low level rooftop so not really any skyline views, but still cool views of historic Fidi buildings rising up around the roof. Note that it’s all outdoors for summer 2020, with indoor bathrooms. You have your temperature checked when you enter the lobby and take an elevator to the roof.

Decided to have lunch at Ampia Rooftop because I saw how cute the decor and greenhouses were on Instagram. It was a bit confusing to find where it was, although they provided the streets. It is on Bridge St between Broad St and Whitehall St! You'll see the flower arch a block away. We arrived for our reservations and the host was very nice. We went up the elevator and the rooftop was as pretty as it looked in pictures. It was the perfect weather too! We were seated quickly and it was really empty. Maybe like 5 tables filled up out of the many tables there was. Our waiter greeted us and was very welcoming and helpful throughout the lunch. We ordered drinks. I had the Sunset Sangria (I believe) and my friend ordered the Aphrodite. Both of our drinks were delicious and perfect for the summer. The waiter brought out pita bread with spinach, garlic, and oil on top. It was sooo good. We ate it so fast. I do wish the plate was longer since the bread underneath had no toppings on it. We also got the calamari. I don't like it so I didn't try but my friend it wasn't the best. We placed our orders and it did not take too long to arrive. I got some cute pictures by the neon Ampia sign by the entrance and in front of the painting of the woman. So cute! I really liked my Rigatoni Ragu Polpette but the Fettuccine Alfredo was a miss. I also didn't like that it's another price just to add chicken or lobster to the Fettuccine Alfredo. The prices are pretty high, which is expected from NY, but still. I think they should definitely work on the food to make a better experience because other reviewers also commented on that. Overall my experience was lovely! It is definitely a cute spot for photo-ops and drinks. I would not really go back for food.

I did not expect this experience! Think very trendy, exclusive, and in the know type of place. Unless you are looking for it, you will miss it the door on the side of a business building with flowers is the clue. Once inside you are greeted by a hostess who checks your ID and vaccination documents. We were supposed to go to the rooftop but it was too cold and I'm happy it was closed. You have to go in an elevator up to the restaurant and then the magic happens! Great wine selection and full bar that is beautifully lit. The booths are cabanas and I had to sit there. The staff was very welcoming and accommodating. The menu was a contactless menu. For a party of four with food, drinks and dessert, it was prices very well. We started with the the hummus plate which was amazing! Warm pitas with the best hummus I've tasted amazing. It was accompanied by picked red peppers, cucumbers and olives. Entrees didn't disappoint either. From the steak and truffled fries and the branzino we were certainly satisfied. Then the cocktails were great also. They cost as much as an entree but worth it. Our waiter Elli(hope I spelled his name right) was so nice. Then the desserts. I had the tiramisu and it was so smooth and good. The cheesecake was also amazing. The bathroom area has a floor mirror that will make you feel good about anything you over indulge on because it made you look 20lbs smaller. I will certainly be back to try their brunch in the spring so I can experience the rooftop. I read the reviews and there are some that didn't make sense to me because of the low rating but we all have opinions and my experience was great!

When I'm on vacation I always want to go some place with a fun atmosphere, or beautiful views, unique, and most importantly great food and drinks. Well this @ampiarooftop checked all my boxes!! The ambiance was beautiful and so unique. And it was on this really cool rooftop in Manhattan. For a starter I ordered this delicious octopus appetizer. It was sautéed in olive oil with onions, domes greens, cherry tomatoes, and kalamata olives. The octopus was so tender with lots of flavor. It was the best I have had. And my drink was so pretty that I almost didn't want to drink it. I wish it had a little more berry flavor or muddled fresh berries. But other than that I was good. The details.... It had an edible butterfly. The drinks are definitely very pricey. For the Main course, I couldn't make up my mind. So i decided to order the lobster ravioli in a lobster bisque and the tri colore gnocchi and split it. I love doing this so I can try more of the dishes. Everything was made from scratch. And it was all so delicious so I couldn't pass on dessert. I always love a good tiramisu. It did not disappoint. With everything made from scratch I can see the prices the way they are but the drinks are a little too high in price. The only one thing was... we had the hardest time finding how to get to the restaurant. It looked like it was apart of this other building. I finally had to call to see where to enter from. And the restrooms could use a little help. They are small and in a cramped area.

Nice Italian rooftop restaurant in Fidi. We made a reservation for a Saturday night and it was quite busy. The restaurant is on the third floor (entrance is on Bridge street, Google maps lead us to a different street), so the view doesn't necessarily have the same rooftop views you would get on the 30th floor of a building in Midtown. We were seated in the back of the restaurant, right next to a speaker which was not super pleasant as the music was blasting loudly. I felt like we had to talk very loudly in order to have a conversation over dinner We started off with the Burrata & Proscuitto as an appetizer and I split the Tris Di Gnocchi for 2 with a friend. I was a little worried that it wasn't going to be enough pasta, but it was more than plenty. The gnocchi was good -- my favorite had to have been the Quatro Formaggi and the Pesto came in a close second.

So the actual rooftop is gorgeous. The aesthetic and decor was really well done and thought out. The cocktails were good but pricey (around $15 each), and the service was really good. Now the bad: food was very disappointing the only thing I liked was the guacamole. They have metal chairs on the rooftop, they are rusty and if that sun hits your chair you are literal toast. Lastly, the bathrooms are so gross. I'm shocked they spent so much money on decor and the bathrooms look like crap? It's weird to me because you can tell they definitely invested in some things and then not others. Overall nice place for a drink on a rooftop but not much else.

My friends and I made a last-minute reservation on OpenTable for dinner on a Sunday night, and came on a chilly late-winter evening when the rooftop was pretty empty. The hostess who checks you in on the ground level is disengaged and seems like she doesn't want to be there, but I can imagine her job must not be the most pleasant as she sits right by a door that is constantly opening and closing, letting in cold air. The ambiance is great! The lights are beautiful in the evening, but I imagine the space is even nicer during the day when you can get even better views of the decor and surrounding buildings. In addition to the greenhouses, there are also several outdoor wooden huts, some of which seat just one party, and others that seat several parties with plastic partitions in between. We opted for a greenhouse because my friend had seen them on social media and wanted to try them, but some of the huts looked even nicer. The drinks were very tasty and pricey, although not moreso than other rooftops. A hot toddy ($19) is perfect on a cold evening. The non-alcoholic soft drinks are absurdly priced at $5 for a small glass of Coke. The food was much more reasonably priced. We shared the calamari appetizer ($17), which was light and crispy. The accompanying marinara sauce was a little one-note and uninspired. I had the squid ink pasta entree ($28), which was just a bit underseasoned, but still tasty. I also had the cheesecake dessert ($11) which was delicious. Our service was a little weird.... The metal frame of the door to our greenhouse would scrape against the metal of the side of greenhouse each time the door would open, which would lead to a startling SCREECH each of the many times the waiters would come by to take our order, deliver food/drinks, or just check on us, which was too often due to the noise. One of the waiters would also just come into the greenhouse every 10-15 minutes and attempt to take away dishes or drinks we weren't finished with, and we had to repeat several times to him that we were not done. That said, I absolutely appreciate the hard work the staff is putting into ensuring we were taken care of while dining outdoors; they were all dressed in their winter coats and wearing hats to stay warm on the job.

The flight of gnocchis were Divine! Pesto, truffle and tomato yum!!! The salmon yummy. The salad was drowning in dressing. The wait staff were a bit impatient and rude. The general manager was very nice and attentive. It was a bit of a trek from midtown Manhattan, but we are glad we made it.

Kind of hard to find. Google maps doesn't lead correctly. You have to find the flower entrance on the left side of the building. My friend and I both got the steak which came with fries. Initially I ordered mashed potatoes as the side with the steak but then later they came back and said they didn't have any which was disappointing. The truffle fries were OK. For the steak, we asked for medium but the steaks were practically well done. It was tasty but would've been better with sauce. Coke I got charged twice for getting refill which I kind of expected Bc it's NY but good to know beforehand. Total came out to be $100. 3-4 stars for the food and its price. The service was OK. It's a nice place but it was difficult to get the waiters' attention at times and I had to step out of the greenhouse and search for them. As he was taking our plates back, the waiter also spilled a cup of water on me which wet all my clothes. And it's like 30-40 degrees outside so now I'm cold. It wasn't a huge deal, and they were apologetic but I kind of expected a discount. Instead, I was surprised to see they circled 20% gratuity on our check. Don't know if I would come here again.

This place sucks! The food is horrendous, i ordered the lobster ravioli and it literally tasted like microwave food. Disgusting! The drinks were gross!! not worth $19! People comes here to take cute pics for Instagram! Do not waste your money! Two stars because our waiter was very attentive and he did a great job! Also for the cute decor!

5 stars literally because of the ambiance and service!! I had a few friends from out of town who I brought to Ampia rooftop as a fun spot for drinks before our dinner plans. We ordered a few rounds of drinks and they were all beautiful! The cocktails are a little on the sweeter side. We had been running around all day and our phones were dying so she (I believe the manager) kindly charged our phones for us. We were also freezing and asked if the heater next to us can be turned on- it wasn't working but many servers came over to try. Finally the manager came by and made sure we could be moved to a greenhouse - it was so warm and cozy inside! They were all so kind and accommodating. The service was also insanelyy fast! We received our drinks (and even the truffle fries we ordered) so quickly! Now, the ambiance. WOW this place is beautiful and I am especially in LOVE with the mural that they have. The rooftop is just so beautiful and colorful, super instagrammable. From the ceilings to the walk out of the elevator, all the decor is well thought-out. It's in the middle of FiDi and I love the contrast of the floral with the tall city buildings. Pics attached- see for yourself! I'll absolutely be returning for drinks again soon :)

I was really looking forward to dining at this newly opened rooftop because I live for rooftops and love the idea of dining in a private greenhouse. After making a reservation for 2 online, I thought I was all set. Then I had to make a change to the reservation, so I called the place and am glad I did. I learned that making an online reservation doesn't guarantee your spot, because they automatically allow you to still make a reservation even if they are at capacity on any given day. The lady on the phone was pleasant enough and explained the online reservation system pretty clearly. However, since there is an issue with online reservations, it is their responsibility to fix it or just not offer that option. I don't really understand the point of online reservations if it is causing so many problems. Therefore, I would recommend calling the restaurant directly to ensure your reservation goes through. Upon arriving, my friend and I found out that the "rooftop" was on the 3rd floor. Since it was so close to ground level, there was barely a view. The ambiance of the rooftop and decor was beautiful though. There was a bar area with pretty pink and white orchards, a row of clear green houses, leafy green plants throughout, and a myriad of seating options from wooden tables and benches, to couches and plush seats. We found out that there were only a few private greenhouses and none of them were available, so we were forced to choose another place to sit. This was quite disappointing, because the photos made it look like the rooftop was filled with only greenhouses and that we would get to peruse them. We chose plush couch seating and resorted to taking photos in front of the greenhouses to make it look like we ate in there. Our table was lovely though, with a gold flower design on shiny black surface. There was hand sanitizer on the table, which was a thoughtful touch. We were served cold water and told that we would need to scan the QR code to view the menu. I decided I wanted the salmon. We had to wait a bit for a waiter to be available and this was the case during most of our time here. When I ordered, the waiter asked me if it was the sandwich. It turned out that all the fish dishes were actually sandwiches, which I did not realize. I stuck with the Panino Salmone, which consisted of pan seared salmon, baby arugula, truffle fries, and goat cheese on a brioche roll. This was plated and stacked nicely, however the portion was on the small side. Additionally, I did not expect the truffle fries to be part of the sandwich. The brioche roll was wonderfully fluffy and soft. The salmon was slightly crispy, with plenty of delightful seasoning. It was also tender, flaky, and flavorful. The truffle fries had strong truffle taste, however was not as crunchy as I like. I also expected more fries in general. The goat cheese was creamy and added to the flavor profile. Overall, the ingredients mingled well together and it was a decent sandwich. The service was dismal because we had to try to flag our waiter down any time we needed anything and everything took longer. Also, the pricing was high. For my salmon sandwich, the cost was around $20 so not that bad, but my friend's truffle gnocchi with bacon was $28, which was definitely too much. Thankfully, the company was great and the set up of the rooftop was visually pleasing. Despite that, the service and food left much to be desired, so I will not be back.

This was a great venue especially for outdoor dining , perfect set up! Although It was a bit of a challenge trying to finding the location -I actually had to go to a different restaurant to ask, apparently everyone has the same issue ....not great signage. Walking off the elevator was a beautiful winter wonderland. I was very impressed with the food as well . We ordered the meatballs ,and eggplant for an appetizer and the gnocchi trio as our meal simply delicious . The trio was plenty of food for two! Great music and individual heaters as well!

Earlier this month, I decided to experience rooftop dining without taking multiple buses. After reviewing the menu, the place is pricey, but there is no other rooftop places where you can dine. Reservations are required and seating is usually booked. I went early (when it opened for dinner) and the person at the front desk in the lobby is strict. When I arrived, I had to have my face scanned to check my temperature. The hostess asked if I had a reservation and prior to entry into the elevators, the host sanitized my hands. There is only one elevator. When I arrived, I was immediately escorted to table, but it felt too crowded because there were lots of people sitting next to each other despite the plexiglass separation. As a result, I chose to sit at the corner bar underneath the speakers. Once I was seated, I was given a digital menu to scan a barcode to view the menu. I chose to order the Tickled Pink Sangria ($18) and the Gnocchi Tartufo ($28). Overall food and service was ok. The sangria was not pink as previously described by other people and the gnocchi tartufo was rich so I only ate half of it and took the other half to go. Personally there was not any memorable but I was glad to experience and support local businesses.

This has been the hot new spot for everyone, especially after a few viral instagram posts. I came here a few weeks ago and absolutely loved it! Ambience is wonderful - the rooftop is spacious with plants as well as little greenhouse tables which you need to reserve in advanced. Food is good but not omg good. I got the tri gnocchi dish which is the signature dish there. My favorite one was the red one Price - price is average for NYC especially for the ambiance. I thought the drinks were overpriced though. I ordered a Prosecco and it was small. The mescalitas were great! My colleague was impressed that there was a specific, rare whisky as an option. Service - pretty slow even though they have so many waiters Covid - they have hand sanitizers at the table, they check temperature via camera before you enter and they have an online menu Would I go again? It's a good experience especially with the online raves and wanting to try the gnocchi but I probably wouldn't go again.

**WOULD RATE IT A 3.5** This spot has been blowing up on social media - it is a super cute rooftop vibe with "green houses" that your party can eat in safety. Please keep in mind that the green houses need to be booked a week in advance and majority of them are for two people. This is a super cute first date spot though! Luckily, my friends and I were able to snag a green house for 3 on a Thursday night. The lobby itself was pretty obscure and honestly I walked right by it without realizing it. The guy working in the lobby was not super friendly - but they do take your temperature before you are allowed up and all the staff were wearing masks and the green house made the experience feel pretty safe. They have a variety of different food options and a even greater variety of drink options. My friends and I went with the Tris Di Gnocchi - which was three different favors of gnocchi. This was pretty good - the pesto flavor was pretty strong but the other two favors were definitely really good. Then we had the truffle fries which were meh in my books - they were pretty crispy fries but little to no truffle taste. Last we got the Margherita pizza which was alright - nothing really special but definitely not bad either. We all got the Tickled Pink Sangrai which was REALLY strong - so if you like strong cocktails this is the place for you but it was definitely too strong for our liking. The bill came out to be around $45 per person which was pretty pricey but overall super cute date spot!

A super cute rooftop with some igloo/green house seatings which are nice but can get too hot in the sun. So we opted to sit under the umbrellas. Service was great, drinks were delicious and the food was also great. There lobster burger is a must try! They were good at social distancing, temperature checks and didn't feel crowded at all. Felt safe going here.

My husband brought me here for our anniversary, even though his plans were changed because of the weather. However, the staff was very accommodating gave us a champagne each for the inconvenience of not having the rooftop access. Food was really good service even better really good experience.

Best pasta ever ! I can't wait to go back and have those ñoqui the service was excellent, the ambience and decoration was beautiful outstanding place

First rooftop of the summer and did not disappoint. I appreciate the measures they took for the pandemic. When you enter they take your temperature, less than 3 people on the elevator, and all the tables are spaced out. Unfortunately our reservations was not fully confirmed and we were not seated at table but we got to hang out at bar and try their specialty drink, Maya. It's a horchata drink with avocado. Definitely different and refreshing. The bartender was from Italy and super friendly. We even got to meet the famous TikToker Mr_nuevayol and he was also super nice and allowed us to take pictures with him. Overall nice rooftop, amazing drinks and will return.

Super cool looking place. Seems like would be a good vibe with a bunch of friends. So, I'm a rare breed and we just wanted mock tails and chill with some dessert, but they said they couldn't do it, so we just dipped. Kinda confused like all you have to do is not include the alcohol lol.

Attended my friend Jennifer's 33td birthday dinner here. The place looks amazing and the service is excellent. The Birthday person was fashionably late and that had the hostess a bit antsy. We had rounds of tequila shots and snacked on fried calamari. I had the lobster ravioli which was pretty good even though I've had better. My one drawback was the amount of attention our table got from the management staff. It became noticeable to me and once they saw that I was watching them watch us they began to disperse. Overall a great experience at a great establishment. One thing to note: I was sitting at the bar having a drink and realized my phone was almost dead and I was a bit nervous that to wouldn't be able to take any pictures with my friends. One of the managers saw my concern and offered to charge it for me in the office! That was truly and excellent moment! well appreciated too!

Come for the ambiance but skip the food. If you're coming here for the rooftop experience, that probably means you've seen the Instagram spam with flower walls and dining igloos. It is a very nice set up and in a convenient location, but the food itself was sub par. If you're looking for 4/5 star dishes, skip the food here. We ordered the gnocchi and bolognese. The gnocchi were good but came out cold, and the bolognese tasted like taco meat on top of undercooked pasta. The little igloo we were seated in was also boarded up with wood so we didn't get to enjoy the view while dining, only as we entered and as we left. Come for the drinks and the photo opp. Eat elsewhere.

Really good food (ordered the pizza tartufata that came with prosciutto and a dollop of ricotta). Ambiance was nice. Gnocchi was amazing. Bathroom situation is sus because it's basically built from plywood around a makeshift plumbing system. The wait staff was really unfriendly and cold. Also half of the seating is high stools so it's a little uncomfortable. Drinks are also crazy expensive (glass of rose over $20) so I did not order any.

Came here for a 7PM dinner on a busy Thursday night. Reservations are basically required now as the city opens back up and people are eager to go out again. Pros: -Drinks were not watered down and had generous pours -Service was very good. Waiters were attentive even though the rooftop was packed. The hostess was very personable and knowledgeable about the menu. The floor manager was roaming around making sure everything was running smoothly. -The general atmosphere of being outdoors and without traffic or pedestrians 1 foot away from you. Cons: -Noise level, especially when seated near the bar. The inside seating option is probably much better if looking for a quieter time with your date. -The elevator is super slow but there is the option of stairs to work off those calories! -A bit on the pricy side especially for some of the appetizers but probably in line with the other nice places in the area. Food: I had the squid ink tagliolini and I liked it. I'm by no means a foodie so bear with me! It had a good mix of different seafood and made for a satisfying meal. I do wish there was some bread on the table to mop up some of the sauce at the end. My friend had the pollo alla capricciosa which was basically a breaded chicken breast on some greens. This was a little disappointing because the chicken was very thin (1/4" at most) and wasn't anything special. Appetizer was pan fried artichokes and they were tasty but a tiny portion. I seriously could've ate the entire thing in one bite if I wasn't interested in practicing proper dinner decorum. The place was hopping on a Thursday night and I saw many happy patrons having a good time. So in line with what other reviewers have said, come here for the atmosphere and drinks. Food won't be the main thing it seems.

Dropped by on a thursday night when looking for dinner in fidi. Luckily we were able to walk in with a short wait. The rooftop was beautiful with a bar and great pasta menu options. we've been having grilled octopus around a couple places recently and like the one on the apps menu here the best so far. The squid ink pasta was also a solid dinner choice. I would definitely go here if you're looking for a dope view and cute insta friendly dinner option. I just took a star off because the service was bad. When asked for recommendations the server straight up did not converse with us and offered no other options when they didn't have what we wanted to have.

Their way of making rent at this place is charging insane prices. The only issue is these prices don't match the quality of food coming out. $59 16 oz ribeye is a flat piece of meat , the likes of which you can get at any street cart. Drink prices are inflated by at least $4-5. Mediocre list of mediocre wines retailing $12-14 marked up to $80,90,100. Their specialty cocktails seem to be a random collection of ingredients thrown together by aspiring mixologists with zero thought put in. The $16 Caesar salad is a mushy mess of leaves with too much dressing. The only palatable things here are the pizza and gnocchi. The dessert menu leaves much to be desired. Very limited.

I have visited their other location on 4th street & after coming across some delicious pics hubby ended up making an rsvp for this location. We came in & were seated right away, Wine to Begin with Pinot for me not bad & Rose both good. We skipped the apps since gnocchi is a very filling pasta but they start u off with some good bread & a whipped ricotta & tomato paste , the ricotta was delicious, great tasting with the bread. Main dish I had the Spinach gnocchi al tartufo , great tasting truffle sauce very good pasta. Hubby had the Purple gnocci in crema di limoncello mascarpone with shrimp, very good dish as well. Nice looking place much better than the other location since this one is way bigger, service was good & prices are bit on the high side but are doable, we enjoyed our gnocchi.

Other then the Decor this place is not it. Rude staff, drinks are horrible and the pink sangria they are know for is flat white wine with blueberries. Oh yea I almost forgot when they take your reservation over the phone they ask for $10 per person and say it will go towards your bill. When you get your bill they add the tip themselves. They however, magically forget your $10 per person that goes towards your bill. Do not recommend!!! There are plenty of rooftops with beautiful views and better staff!

This place is really a 3.5 stars at best, but I'm rounding up because the service was really attentive after a certain point. Went here on a date. The guy had made a reservation in advance, but the ladies at the front said they only had indoor (2nd floor) or outdoor rooftop seating without heat. No one came to help us when we went to the se one floor. Fortunately, my date was quick-thinking and we both just went up to the rooftop and flagged someone down. They then found us one of (multiple) little greenhouses which had heating inside. The disorganization of this whole process definitely means knocking a star down. Once we were seated, things were better. The waiters routinely checked in on us to refill water, ask if we were ok, and generally were easy to flag down if needed. Our waiter's recs on drinks were spot on. I would say the drinks are miles above the food, but they are in the $18-20 range, so I mean, they better be. We got the Pursuit of Passion and Mezcalita - both were excellent. We wanted to try the Maya (has fresh avocado!), but it was sold out...so that must mean it's the one to try here. :) Food was passable. Burrata and prosciutto plating was meh. Calamari and steak dishes were also *fine.* We ended with lava cake + ice cream. That was totally solid! Total was $90ish per person including tip, so you know, you're coming here for an ~occasion.~ They have a lot of floral arrangements and the kind of set-up Instagram influencers would love. Come for vibes and drinks, and maybe dessert!

Do NOT come here for food. The food is absolute trash. Why else do you think they dressed up their rooftop, & went the whole nine yards?? It's to convince you to show up to FIDI where NO ONE ever goes for good food. They dropped so much $$$$ to make their place look attractive to drive people in and then slap a ridiculous price tag on the garbage they picked up from the east river. A bit harsh? Idk maybe order their meatballs and you will see for yourself. Meatballs ($16)- the aroma of dirty sponges drift up to your nostrils as you lift a forkful to your mouth. And you sniff once again to wonder if you're going senile... But no, you taste it and it has an awful funky smell like they rubbed these meatballs across their dirty kitchen counters to clean. I asked my girlfriends..."do you smell that??" And they all agreed in disgust. But since our party was 6 people and there were 6 meatballs, they were all gone before I could complain to the staff. NASTIEST SH*T you'll ever taste. Calamari ($17)- Dry and the worst batter ever and then you get to the meat of the calamari and it's flavorless and so chewy. This is the ultimate amateur hour. Lobster Ravioli ($29)- one bite and I had to send it back. The toughest ravioli skin with garbage stuffing. The lobster was rubbery and vile. Who is this chef?? They need to fire him. Pappardelle AllanBolognese ($25)- Chef Boyardee is a step above this dish. I'm not sure what they are doing to their ground beef but we need to call the sanitation department because their meat is FUNKY. Do not order this. Olive Garden beats this place by a mile. Save yourselves. You can steal my photo of their mural and pretend you went there. You don't need to go in person.

Made a reservation & still had to wait a half hour. Nicely decorated entrance way but have seen much nicer rooftops. This rooftop is only about 3 stories high, you don't get much of a view. Vibes were okay, not great music. We kind of got bored which led us to order food, and I will say the two stars are for how good the Gnocchi was. The drinks were mediocre and overpriced. Honestly nothing special, there's tons of rooftops in NYC, look elsewhere

0 star for the food 1 star for service 1 star for ambiance If you want to book the greenhouse make sure you book ahead of time! Due to tiktok, this place blew up! First of all, this place was actually really hard to find on google map. Before we entered the rooftop we had to show our reservations and get our temperature checked. In my most humble and honest opinion.... this place is not it.... (if you're looking for a nice view, then you will love it) if you're coming for the food.... I would save yourself the trip. The food were extremely over priced and the quality of the food was no bueno! I remember ordering French fries, a burger, and pizza.... but none of the choices were decent The drinks on the other hand was pretty good and our server was very sweet. Other than that... there is nothing special about the food... I realized I didn't even take pictures of the food because I was so disappointed. The view though... that was amazing

Rooftop is amazing, you are in the middle of larger buildings so the sun goes down relatively quickly. The food was amazing- and totally worth it. If you are looking for a quiet little rooftop with amazing Italian food, this is 100% your place.

Come for the lovely decor, as the views aren't super remarkable (basically towering FiDi buildings). Flowers and bright colors are everywhere, oh my! On weekends, they have live music, which sounds like a good idea in theory until you have a sax solo blasting in your ears while trying to enjoy avocado toast. We skipped the music. Food-wise, the Polpo alla Brace (grilled octopus) was surprisingly tasty, and the drinks were more reasonably priced than expected for a rooftop bar. Service wasn't bad. I'm not sure I'd hike all the way down here for another visit, but if you're in the area, this is better than most of the other soulless options in this soulless neighborhood.

This place is very cute! I came here for an end-of-work event so we had a small space in the back with an open bar and apps on the roof. It's on a quiet in block in downtown Manhattan. When you come in there's an elevator and stairs to take you up. There's a restaurant on the 2nd floor and a rooftop on the 3rd. Overall everything was great, they kept the drinks strong and flowing, and the apps were delicious, especially the pizza (and I am a pizza snob). The wait staff was very friendly and attentive and kept coming over and removing empty plates and cups and kept the food coming. There was also a small dining area on the roof with a small stage and there was a jazz band playing. It was a nice chill place to sit, drink, and hang out.

BEAUTIFUL EXPERIENCE! Made a reservation for me and my friend. With it being winter rooftop wasn't open but that didn't stop us. DRINK AMAZING. The gnocchi was amazing, and GLUTEN FREE!! We got the shareable. Not only is the scenery amazing but the people are very nice. Also, after 9 they open it up to a club.

This may be the worst rooftop in the Manhattan area. It doesn't have a view besides the sky and the food and drinks are dismal. I ordered the pink sangria that had no fruit and tasted like cheap rose. For food we ordered the gnocchi for two which was extremely bland- Luzzos is definitely the spot for gnocchi. There's plenty of rooftops in the area with actual views and far better drinks and tapas. Save your time and money. I came here on a second date with a boy that liked me enough for a third date so yayy but you're setting yourself up for disappointing night.

Food was delicious and the ambiance was nice. They seemed a little disorganized with the reservations running behind. I think the reservation overbooks. We got the truffle burrata and it was really good. Downside is that they don't serve it with bread. I don't know what they think people should eat it with? We asked for bread so it made it better. The octopus app was also good. It was cooked perf and the flavor was good. We weren't too hungry so we just ordered those 2 things. The annoying thing was every few minutes a server was at our table either refilling water or talking or whatever. We kept being interrupted. Every time a plate was almost done they were ready to take it off the table. There's places with awful service where they don't tend to you at all, and then there was this that was quite excessive and really got annoying. They also kept coming back to our table thinking other people's orders were going to us. The food fortunately saved the night the servers need to ask if we're done instead of grab things off the table. It was very rushed.

This place looks like an art gallery once you walk-in. Once you get passed that part is the elevator which takes you to the restaurant. The restaurant looks really new and nice. I liked the feel of the place with all the modern decorations. Check out the bathroom sinks to view the gold colored/stained sinks. The only thing missing was great food and more people. It felt very empty for such a huge space. They are supposedly known for their gnocchi since it's in their name. But it wasn't that great. They could've done something to spruce or spice up the taste. Their truffle pizza was good though. All in all not sure I would ever go back.

Signage up, coming soon - restaurant and rooftop. Looks nice from outside. Wall Street office area can use a good rooftop. Update once open

We did outdoor dining for three on a Friday in March. It was cold and there was a little heater, but we still felt like we needed to keep our coats on. I think everyone were seated in small, private, indoor spaces. No groups were like seated on an open table with heater, which would have been ROUGH up there. Everyone here was so friendly and the food was delicious. The gnocchi lived up to the hype. We loved our cocktails as well, which were large portions and had a decent amount of alcohol (not watered down or overly sweet). We also ordered the tagliatelle and salmon salad, both of which were great. We had a 1.5 hour limit, but we asked and they let us stay for an additional 30 min. Lots of check-ins. That can be good or bad depending on your preference!

The indoor and outdoor dining is EVERYTHING! I def recommend the trio gnocchi if your on a budget- shareable with 2 people! The staff is also very patient and great!

My whole experience here can be summed into one sound.."eh." Decided to check this place out after seeing it all over social media, especially on Tik Tok and Instagram. The videos show a vibrant bar with great views, and cute little greenhouses to sit in that overlook downtown. Wanted to celebrate my friends belated birthday, maybe we went in expecting too much. As we entered the lobby, we were greeted by two hosts, who screened us for COVID, giving us a great sense of security. However, the lobby was hot. Even the hosts were dripping in sweat, but we were still excited. As we exited the elevators onto the rooftop, our excitement dropped drastically. We were met by another host who escorted us to our table. When we sat down, we were able to glance around. The rooftop looked like someone's failed attempt at a backyard BBQ. Unfinished construction materials were laying around, there were some broken patio chairs, and cheap garden lights that outlined the entire roof. Our table was simply, a plank of wood. You know..the unfinished, rough feeling type that you pick up at Home Depot for construction. The glasshouses that we're displayed on social were intact, however there is, at most 4 of them, which need to be booked 2 weeks in advance. Ok, fine, the place isn't exactly how it looks on social media. We were hoping the food would make up for it. Nope. It was bland, AND overpriced. Only positive was that the drinks were quite strong and tasty. I tried the "Stormy Nouveau" and my friend tried the "Harvest Mule." As I mentioned earlier, the intention of this dinner was to celebrate my friends belated birthday. I walked to the restroom and asked the waitress if she could bring us a candle and a dessert, she assured me that she would. Well she forgot. After growing frustrated, I just asked for the check, and we left to another spot to rightfully celebrate. Ultimately, we were quite disappointed. They must have a great marketing team though! It really did look epic on social media...this place is ultimately a catfish.

Ampia Rooftop was a HORRIFIC experience. Not because of COVID-19 however. Their staff was extremely rude, please retrain them. Starting from the host who did not greet my partner and I with a smile or hello, he asked us "What is the reservation name under?" and treated us like we weren't supposed to be there. We were escorted to our table by a hostess who was dressed super unprofessionally, wearing a bralette and cargo pants. To make matters worst our waiter, Robert, was unapproachable and had no hospitality skills. He didn't crack a smile once and when we asked to change into a green house because it was raining he didn't answer us and gave us a make shift umbrella and cement stand which was about to fall. I'm all about giving businesses my business during these times and adapting to the change but this experience because of the staff was horrible. PS: The food was mediocre and each non alcoholic drink is $5.00, would not recommend one bit. Follow me at @slaybykate on Instagram for more reviews

i've been dying to go to this place ever since they installed the Covid greenhouses. so cute you get to eat inside of a glass house, I loved it! Drink as were amazing, although I was a little disappointed that I couldn't get a Bellini at brunch, they ran out. But it's ok, I has the dapper old fashions which was delicious. A little disappointed with the avocado toast, everything was good but the bread was not toasted so it was soggy. The pasta carbonara was really amazing though I love handmade pasta,Will definitely be back again

If you're reading this and you're solely curious about the food, it's good. Portions are a little small and pricey, but overall satisfying. If you're curious about the service, it needs a little work and could def do a little better. If you're concern about the hygiene situation this covid, they have a high tech system taking your temperature prior to entering the rooftop and they provide you with hand sanitizer. The little greenhouse tables are kept empty for a while after the last guests leave to sanitize and air out. The menus are also retrieved through QR code's, minimizing any excessive physical contact with shared objects. -- FOOD I recommend getting the hummus and burrata + prosciutto for antipasti. You can never go wrong with burrata and prosciutto! Hummus platter comes with an assortment of peppers, cucumbers, olives and pita bread. This was probably one of the best hummus I've ever had! The guacamole came with chips and was pretty mediocre; enjoyable, but we could've done without. For entrees, we got the tris signature gnocchi, squid ink tagliotini, burrata + prosciutto pizza, and chicken parm (cotoletta di pollo). I recommend all of these, especially the pizza! Chicken parm was a little on the drier side tbh. -- SERVICE As for the service, they were pretty inefficient and rude. We were given a small table for 6 of us and asked if we could have another table added since we couldn't even fit our plates on the table. When all our entrees arrived and it obviously didn't fit on the table, we CALMLY asked if they could try adding another table. The server started to wave his arms and told us to calm down the same way you would tell your dog to stay. No, it was not the first time and that's absolutely no way to respond to us. That was just plain rude. As the cherry on top, we were told we had to pay because they were closing WHICH was totally fine. But we were given a second check shortly after we paid and we assumed it was just a customer copy. We were followed down when we left and asked to pay again because they thought we didn't pay. It's an honest mistake, but it showed how disorganized they were. Had the service been a little better and not as rude, I think I would've then enjoyed my experience significantly more.

Beautiful place but could use a few things .. first our reservation was for 7pm which with traffic and horrible parking me made it in the line at 650 ... long line already ! So once the people see us waiting they tell us it's a few minute wait for the elevator to get us upstairs so we wait ! .. 25 min go by and we are still waiting as they sit everyone in the Green house first and after seating 6-7 people then we get upstairs around 730 ... to sit at the bar and wait some more for our table ! We get seated ... water an menu served but then wait another 15 for someone to serve us an then I notice the guy in the corner seeing me look back n forth an takes our order ! I order the Red Sangria which is Delicious .. husband 2 beers and the gnocci in red sauce which I didn't like but the black truffle was really good ! We had the prosciutto & burrata appetizer as well as the Pizza Bianca .... everything was ok .. the scenery was beautiful and the bill was about 185$ Also forgot to mention .. they are covid safe ' plastic dividers between the tables which is cool but I recommend Tinting the glass in between the people as it would make the experience more private and romantic for couples !

Amazing restaurant! Gorgeous views with flowers and plants everywhere. Very quiet with soothing music. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Food was amazing. I had the pollo on the menu (chicken) and friends had pizza. I also had the Passion fruit drink and it was delicious.

We visited this place on a Saturday afternoon and it was pretty busy for a new rooftop restaurant. Great service. Amazing ambience. Good location. For drinks: We tried a Pink Sangria and Harvest Mule. Pink Sangria was kind of okay. For food: We tried the Tris Signature Dish which has 3 different Gnocchi like Pesto Genovese (Average), Quattro Formaggi and Sorrentina. Absolutely loved Sorrentina. Aragasto Panini was a Lobster Sandwich. It was really good too. It can be better if the quantity of the sauce was more or served with a dip. Overall, place is amazing. A little expensive but you will have a great time with your friends and family. Also, don't forget to reserve greenhouses before you go. They tend to be full most of the times. So, on the safer side reservations will be a good idea.
