Italian eatery serving pasta, pizza, and great wine
"If you've been to Lil' Frankie’s in the East Village, you already know what to expect from Daddies. This place is from the same owner, and it's a great choice for a casual night out when you'd like to eat some pizza with dense, puffy crust, or perfectly simple spaghetti limone. Get in and out for under $50, and enjoy some baroque curtains and ostentatious chandeliers while you’re at it. If it’s warm out, grab a table on the streetside patio." - bryan kim, will hartman
"The most annoying aspect of Resy may be the actual reservations it offers. On a recent evening after a cold snap, I wanted to eat outdoors at Daddies in the West Village and figured it would be an easy table to get since it was relatively new, with lots of outdoor seating, and little had been written about the place." - Robert Sietsema
"While trying to get an outdoor table at Daddies in the West Village after a cold snap — a relatively new place with lots of outdoor seating and little written about it — Resy showed a glowing blue wall with every 15-minute slot open for twos, yet adding a third guest caused nearly all times to disappear except late-night options while four-tops remained plentiful, making me suspect Resy or the restaurant was automatically restricting three-top bookings and penalizing odd party sizes." - Robert Sietsema
"I found the banana split at Daddies to be a contemporary dessert fail: a compendium of inferior ingredients — supermarket‑level, freezer‑burned ice creams and syrups — that make every bite high‑caloric torture. The banana was unripe, tasting as if it needed a few more hours in the ethylene gas, and the stale wafer on top reeked of raw alcohol; I couldn't tell what kind, and I didn't want to take another bite to find out." - Robert Sietsema
"I checked out a new West Village pizzeria from Frank Prisinzano—who also runs Lil’ Frankie’s—with ties to social media and an owner recently facing wage-theft allegations." - Eater Staff
