L'Amico

Visited L’Amico | Italian Restaurant in New York and absolutely loved it. The place has a great vibe — elegant, cozy, and perfect for a nice meal. The ambience was excellent and the food was genuinely outstanding. Every bite felt premium and authentic. Definitely one of the best Italian dining experiences I’ve had in NYC. Will surely visit again!

A very lively and friendly atmosphere, very fast, attentive, and friendly service, and the food was simple and delicious (my braised chicken was perfect and tasty!). A great Italian dining experience in Chelsea. Afterwards, I took the opportunity to finish my latest book, Honesty Bar, (bought in English on Amazon, also available in French), a great thriller without violence for the whole family that takes us to the four corners of the world with a great suspense! I will come back in this restaurant!

We had a fabulous dinner on the patio. Food, drinks, and service were amazing. Jake our waiter made the meal even better.

This is one of my favorite restaurants of all time! I've been dining here for the last 10 years. Every time I dine, I experience consistently delicious and decadent food; the spirits are generous and delightful. The Staff is very customer service focused; you never have to ask for anything as they're always paying attention to the dining floor. One is greeted with a smile upon arrival. Dining is a little pricier but worth every penny. On this occasion I had Jake as my server and he was incredibly kind, friendly and provided excellent service. I HIGHLY recommend the restaurant.

I had an amazing lobster dish at this Italian restaurant in New York. The food was absolutely delicious! The atmosphere is elegant and luxurious, The location is very convenient and easy to find, making the experience even more enjoyable.

We made a reservation and greatly enjoyed our experience. All of the food was made to perfection. We had pizza, truffle pasta, roasted chicken. The passionfruit with Italian meringue was to die for! Jake was our server. Nice and attentive, with good recommendations. The table assistants kept our glasses filled with water and the tablescape was always tidy and well maintained.

The pizza here is delish - napolitano style, fire roasted pizza. We had the margherita, white mushroom, and Il Frencese. The appetizers were good too. Also, the cocktails were delicious. We came here based on where we are in the area, just looking for good food - and we found it. We selected this place because of the good/high reviews and this met our expectations. It’s not NY-style pizza but still delish. I recommend.

This was a really lovely restaurant! The pipe rigate and pizza were delicious. The overall ambiance and service was great. I’m glad I chose this spot to eat at, after a show with my family. They loved it! I would definitely go back.

Usually don't write reviews but what the heck, Having a rough day, ordered any amazing pasta dish (veal shoulder something something I forgot) but that's besides the point, it's the hospitality that wow'd me, after paying my bill I mentioned the food was amazing, I'm just having a rough day and couldn't finished as I proceeded to asked for a to go container. The bartender Jay, gave me a complimentary drink to go to cheer me up. Host stand had a whole phone charging set up, manager was friendly when leaving the restaurant. Small details goes a long way. Y'all are amazing! Be back soon...

One of the best meals I had in such a long time. Though we had no reservation it only took the better portion of an hour to get seated! Yay. The hostess was super coorperative in like a Dominic Fike from Euphoria way. No but in all seriousness, I loved eating here and would totally come back again. The menu is simple and food is delicious

Love the vibe here! We stayed at the Kimpton Eventi hotel for 2 days: Open kitchen to the pizza oven, and lots of natural light from the street. Very chic nyc eatery setting. We had the hotel breakfast here 2x and it was yummy, although we forgot to use our hotel credits... but having a pastry, fruit and 2 drinks was perfect to start our day. Croissants was flakey and delicious with jam. The grapefruit juice was refreshing and their fruit was fresh. The only downside, their coffee was not good... very much "street cart coffee" taste. lol IYKYK. Staff are friendly and quick to bring your eats out. Would come back to try their pizza.

Came in with work folks and had a great meal. Prompt service and good menu of options. They made a nice birthday dessert for one of the co-workers and good variety of drinks. Was impressed with their dessert drink menu as well. I had their limoncello and high hit the spot :-) Got a little noisey as all the tables got filled during dinner rush. Came in the hot muggy summer time and with all windows closed got a little warm in the main seating area as it filled with customers..

Ive only been here for brunch and that was great! The soft scrambled eggs were so creamy and delicious, with the black pepper and pecorino really adding a lot of flavor. The side salad was crisp and a great accompaniment. The staff working here are all very nice! Everyone in my group thoroughly enjoyed their meal!

I'm giving this restaurant 4 stars for the breakfast - we ate there every day - which was excellent and the staff who are delightful. Dinner menu we found totally unappealing and never ate dinner there. Plus with Skirt Steak around the corner, it was easy to ignore L'Amico even in pouring rain.

We just got back from Italy and this place is very authentic they have great food and great professional service. What's more is it has wonderful ambiance. We would highly recommend it to anyone wanting authentic Italian food.

We came here Sunday morning at 9 AM without any reservation. The restaurant is in a lovely hotel and has plenty of light coming into it (if you sit by the windows, you might get a little warm and need some sunglasses). We were seated promptly and the helpful waitstaff took our orders shortly thereafter. We tried a croissant, the steel-cut oatmeal with a side of mixed berries, and the lemon ricotta pancakes. The croissant had great lamination on it and was crunchy on the outside and soft a pillowy on the inside. The steel-cut oatmeal had flavorful poached apricot and cherries and the fresh fruit I had requested on the side really paired well. The lemon ricotta pancakes were fantastic and had a more soufflé-like texture to them that I really enjoyed. Worth trying out for breakfast if you're in the area and want a meal with fresh ingredients!

We had a late night dinner here and I have to say that every dish we tried was spot on. From the calamari at the start to our main dishes. But not to be forgotten, I wanted a little something sweet to finish off the meal, but I'm dairy free. Our waitress suggested the Zucchini cake. YUM!!! I would have ordered a 2nd if I hadn't been so full from all the wonderful food. We sat indoors but the walls were open enough that it felt like we were enjoying our meal on a huge covered patio. Overall, a great experience.

Came here for a late lunch. Ordered a bunch of stuff from their brunch menu: 1. Bread with ricotta (not pictured): good stuff with the fresh ricotta with citrus and an almond-esque paste on top reminiscent of an almond croissant 2. Baked eggs: this was pretty good. Warm and comforting in the best way. 3. Ricotta pancakes: soft and fluffy. Almost like a soufflé with how airy and soft it is. Not at all heavy like a normal buttermilk pancake. A bit on the sweet cakey side but good zing with the orange. Overall, the food here was pretty good. The place is pretty. Would come back especially to check out their dinner menu.

I absolutely love this place. We come here a lot for work dinners because it's convenient to get to and the food & drinks are amazing. I always get the sea bass here cause it's so good. Service is always top notch and the decor is really modern.

4 stars for service / 3.5 stars for value and food. This was a really tough one to Yelp. I wanted to enjoy my brunch experience here given the nice ambience and the menu items were what I normally expect to find in an awesome brunch spot. Menu looked promising. However, the food was just good, not particularly memorable. And the portions were all over the place. Some dishes looked great for sharing while others were strictly for one. It was a very European designed menu - small plates in mind so you can try more dishes. But with these prices, given the location, it was hard to justify it on the wallet without the five star quality to match. Again, A good spot for brunch and for people watching. The reservation system was a bit hicup-py. But the hosts at the restaurant were very accommodating when I arrived and explained my issues with the online system. They put me on the live waiting list and texted me with the first available. The staff overall (host, server and support staff) were all friendly and very nice. The place was as packed as can be on a Sunday afternoon in midtown given the high traffic/high tourist neighborhood. The breakfast plates as you'll see in the photos were good, loved the poached eggs. Perfectly cooked. There were no extras, not even garnish. Just nice plating. No decorative touches so it was just a simple brunch. Indeed a nice afternoon out in a nice place. You're soaking in the ambiance. And the people watching. The folks that come here are here for the atmosphere and to enjoy the company. The drinks are the draw ... Which is where the menu really grabs attention. The food was neither outstanding or highly memorable but it was an experience.

Very good food, nice ambiance, very good service. Appetizers and main dishes all solid, small selection of nice wines by the glass. Recommended!

In full disclosure this was not my first choice, however my lunch guest works around the corner and was pressed for time. I arrived early and had a number emails to address and asked if I could be seated while I waited for my guest, the host could not have been more accommodating, what a refreshing surprise! Our server was pleasant and most responsive and got our orders out quickly and most importantly correctly. I had a pizza and my guest a salad with salmon. My pizza was delicious, most flavorful and I enjoyed the consistency. Her salmon was perfectly cooked as well. My only concern would be the menu although creative I would have enjoyed a few basic entrees offers. All in all it was a delightful surprise finished off with two Americano coffees. The restaurant was bright and most inviting.

Came here with a reservation in the middle of winter, they had seated my party in the outside area when there was nobody inside the restaurant .There were heating lamps but it would have been nice to be inside the restaurant at night time. The food to me was good but very overpriced and the worst part for me was how slow the service was. It took almost an hour for our main dishes to come out and we were already hungry coming in. Flagging down the waiter was also impossible because we were one of the two parties that were sitting outside and they never came to check in on us. Paying the bill shouldnt be so difficult. I appreciated that they weren't rushing us to leave but checking in every so often would have been helpful .

I am not a big fan of this place. Been here twice now, the first time I ordered the pizza, the crust was so thin I couldn't hold it with my hands and ate it with a fork and knife. This time I ordered pastas. I liked the ravioli, it was lighter but small portions for the price. I thought the other pasta was too salty for my taste. Also, we got french fries for the table and it was all small pieces like they poured the bottom of the bag and gave it to us. The place looks very nice and clean, good ambiance! Our server was super sweet and there were a fee people attending to our table but for the quality of food and the price, I don't think I'll be back.

Came here before the JCole concert in MSG. The service was decent , it was very busy so at moments when we needed our waiter we ended up calling someone else who was close by because he was busy. The ambiance was very beautiful , low lights and romantic vibe. And the food topped it all everything I pictured was INCREDIBLE. I will be returning.

My wife and I an amazing experience here. They have the best gluten free pizza we have had in the city to date. Additionally the octopus was cooked to perfection. I swear we must have made those sounds one makes when something is delicious so loudly that all the tables around us were ordering it too. We will be back. The service was a bit lack luster and took longer than usual. The serve also misheard our order but the mistake was quickly taken care of. We hope for more attentive service next time.

We were 6 last night for Thanksgiving dinner. What a beautiful restaurant. It was a Prix Fixe menu at a very reasonable price. We started out with pumpkin bread and Butternut Squash soup, then a full turkey dinner with all the fixings. Turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes, greens, cranberry sauce, and stuffing. My wife had a lovely piece of salmon, and one of my sons had the prime rib. We topped it off with pumpkin and pecan pie. We sat out side on a covered heated patio which was great, and Sophia our server went above and beyond to make sure our Thanksgiving dinner was perfect. Thank you everyone for a wonderful evening.

L'amico deserves an updated review from me as I have gone multiple times since the last review. It's amazing! I have determined my only bad experience was a fluke and the restaurant is nothing less than great. The food is great, while the brunch and dinner are both amazing. Get the zucchini salad and the chicken dish on the menu. You'll be impressed.

Nice place to have a fancy dinner! Awesome service in a very hip place Love it ! Food was awesome too !

Came here for some pre-game food. I feel like most of the food was just okay and overpriced for what it is. The octopus was very tough. The scallops were $38 and came with 3 - that's crazy. The pizzas were okay. Don't think I'd return.

I rarely put yelp reviews but this place deserve one Walked in with no reservation at 7pm (rush hour) and everyone was very nice and welcoming The outdoor seating is honestly a big plus, I didn't feel cold and it was warm and cozy I had the octopus and the burrata and honestly I was surprised !!! The food was amazing and my server Jorge was the best . So polite, super pleasant, smiled the whole time and great recommendations !! The busser was very attentive as well !!! Got the Walnut rhum banana cake The caramelized banana were the best part Highly recommend this place!! Thank you to all the staff and the kitchen

Came here on a Friday evening for a date night and it was honestly a great place. Once I checked-in, I was easily seated at my table and was greeted with water/menus. The food came out at a reasonable time as well. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the sausages were tasty. The pizza was a bit on the burnt end with the crust, but it was still delicious. Just wished that the pizza was a bit bigger considering the price. Loved the ambiance with dim lighting and nice views outside. Thought it was weird that the manager was going table-to-table to greet people, but completely skipped us. Only that threw me off a bit. Food: 3/5 Service: 3/5 Ambiance: 4/5

Had the nicest lunch here! First of all their iced tea was awesome. It's so rare to find and a joy when it happens. The arugula salad was a quality basic. The cauliflower was absolutely outstanding. I think the best cauliflower I've ever had. Hubs agreed. The chicken he ordered was juicy and flavorful- super moist, while still thoroughly cooked. The dessert was unusual in look and fun to eat, as well as super yummy. You'd have to see my photo for what it's called because I already forgot. All you need to remeber is to go!

We had guests from out of town and this couldn't be a more perfect spot to showcase how we New Yorkers brunch! We started with drinks, I was so glad they had juices (ordered the greens juice, made of kale, spinach, ginger). Also ordered the smoked salmon pizza, I liked this, but note this is actually a cold dish, I am sure the pizza crust was freshly baked, but since salmon is actually a cold ingredient, it ended up being a lox on pita like bread, still good though. I ordered the hash and poached eggs, which were two poached eggs on top of crispy potato hash. So delicious! Hubby ordered the Eggs "Al Forno", which had a nice portion of broccoli rabe cooked inside a small cast iron pan. Additionally, our group also shared a lemon ricotta pancakes, which is a popular dish amongst all of the tables! I saw this on every single table. This was undoubtedly delicious and fluffy! Overall, service and ambiance of this place is chic. Had an excellent brunch experience.

It has been a while since going back to L'Amico restaurant in NYC, well I wish I did not wait so long as it was really good. The place is wonderful, the service too and I love the food, we started with Eggplant Caponata Bruschetta which was amazing, really fabulous and then the Prosciutto San Daniele with roasted pear, Gorgonzola cheese, endive and walnuts, also very tasty. Then we had a couple of pasta dishes, the Pipe Rigate with veal shoulder bolognese sauce and the Zucca pasta which I have never heard in Italian as Zucca means butternut squash, I thought it was funny as the name would be butternut squash butternut squash anyway no matter what it was called it was absolutely delicious, I will be back again soon, loved it

Came here for brunch on a rainy Sunday. It was honestly one of the best brunches I had in a long time and the dishes felt a little different and more original (which can be hard to do with traditional breakfast foods). Service was friendly and I didn't feel rushed to finish my meal. This was a great place to catch up with friends though it seems a bit tougher to fit bigger parties though they have one giant table that looks like it could fit a really large group.

We tried to walk in around 7 but they were obviously full so they put a reservation down for us at 8:30 and suggested the cocktail bar next door. Oooooh this place did not disappoint. We weren't super hungry so we ordered an appy and a pizza to share. It was cozy inside. Noise level average for a busy restaurant. Our waitress was prompt. The prosciutto San Danielle was heavenly with the fig ricotta bread you'd eat between bites of the prosciutto. I'm still dreaming about this. The Salsiccia pizza has great crust. The toppings all vibed but much more subtle and not salty. Could use a slight pizzazz of some "bam" flavour but otherwise really tasty. And the dessert!!! We freaking love meringue. Give us a pavlova and we are over the moon. This was an amazing combination of meringue with passion fruit and ice cream and GOLD??? Talk about a bougie looking dessert but totally affordable. I would get this everyday if I could. There are so many Italian restaurants in New York to hit up but this one was impressively good.

seasoning. How can one be in New York, Manhattan to be exact, as part of a hotel's amenities and fair to create an enjoyable Italian meal? I saw another review and she gave slightly better marks than I will, but I can't recommend this place. It took a long time to get a seat. Twice as long to get service. And when the food arrived, it wasn't for lack of appearance. i take that back, i can recommend this as a last choice if all others aren't open. maybe. for the price, for the wait to the table, for the wait to get service at the table, for the disappointment at the food. i can't really agree there's value.

Conveniently located inside the Kimpton Eventi in Chelsea, which is where we were staying. My friend and I went for brunch one morning, and were seated right away next to a window which was great for people watching. Our waitress was quick and friendly. We ordered two of their fresh pressed green juices which were delicious and refreshing. We started with the tuna crudo as an appetizer and it was light and and crisp and fresh. We also ordered the tiramisu French toast, the burrata with pesto and English peas, and a side of the sausage. We could not stop remarking on how great everything was. The sausage was unlike any other breakfast sausage I've had, it was incredible. The burrata was savory and the French toast was heavenly. The restaurant was clean and upscale without being stuffy.

Walked by and noticed a large quantity of people in so decided to give it a try for lunch. I was seated immediately and noticed the fun and cool ambiance. I ordered a zucchini salad and pizza. I loved the idea of the zucchini salad. However, it was so acidic from the lemon that I had to pour water on it to make it tolerable. The pizza arrived later, and it was extremely burnt. Not only on the crust but also on the bottom. My waiter, while nice, never checked in on me. He was only there to take my order and deliver the bill. I tried to flag down the waiter because the pizza was burnt, and I was never able to get his attention. I tried to eat what I could, which was mostly sauce and cheese. Also, I asked for a pressed drink and was told they were out of it. Meanwhile, when I went to the bathroom after I paid, I saw the exact drink I asked for out and placed a separate order.

My friend and I stumbled upon L'Amico while searching for Italian food near the Flatiron. At first, it looked promising with its upscale decor, elegant atmosphere, and promising menu. The restaurant was dim-lit with comfortable and intimate seating. The kitchen was visible throughout the restaurant and the staff was friendly. We had a short wait to sit and got our orders in quick. We ordered the Eggplant Caponata Bruschetta and the White Mushroom Pizza. The bruschetta was pretty good with seasoned mozzarella and sauteed eggplant topped with pine nuts. It was a solid appetizer that I would order again. After this, though, everything went downhill. That mushroom pizza was probably one of the worst I have ever had. It was topped with so much mushroom that I could barely taste anything else. It felt like I was just eating a heap of raw mushroom, leaving a terrible taste in my mouth. The cheese was also different, which is ok, but there was no warning on the menu that the cheese may have a unique (stinkier) flavor profile. We only ate two slices before asking for the check. Though the restaurant is upscale, the food did not live up to its potential. The prices were way too high for the small portions and lack of quality. The dollar slice we had after was ten times better than the $27 pizza we had at L'Amico. I probably won't come here again. 3/5 stars.

No complaints everything perfect , fresh pizza good service & all you can wish for in a hotel lobby 2 bars to choose from & patio & outdoor seating

Beautiful restaurant and interior decor. Attended a small work lunch here, party of 4. I imagine this is a nice place for a catching up with a friend. Buzzy energy, lots of bright natural light.. I don't recommend for a group lunch unless it's in the larger tables toward the entrance/hotel. The tables are close together and it's a little difficult to hear. The food was nice, not super memorable but well prepared. I had the scallops. They were able to accommodate a few dishes to be pork free. I would come back, would like to try sidewalk seating in warmer weather.

Very good chicken and kale salad and great service. Open air seating available. Would definitely recommend.

Not a good dinner spot. Don't recommend. We were a party of two and the table we got sat at was not enjoyable. It was extremely close to the other tables so much so that when I had to get in and out of my seat I'm pretty sure my butt swiped the opposing table. All I could hear was the peoples voices who were sitting next to me. As far as drinks- total let down. I ordered a dirty martini which didn't come to me dirty like I had asked and the olives were terrrrrible. I can't even explain it because I've never eaten a bad olive. They were small but the taste was like dish soap and nothing at the same time. It was very strange. My boyfriend also ordered an espresso for dessert and he said it was terrible. The menu is small and nothing comes with sides so if you are someone who enjoys options and a healthy portion- you won't find it here. I ordered the sausage pizza which was in fact very delicious actually but I only ordered it because nothing else looked filling enough. My boyfriend ordered the sea bass and it was good....just good. It tasted like sea bass everywhere else I've had it. Nothing special. All in all I wouldn't go back nor would I recommend this restaurant. It just didn't check the boxes. Seating was literally the worst. Service was attentive however. The food was just 'good'. Drinks were less than good.

One of the worst brunch experiences of my adult life. Multiple people asked us about water options, but none could take a drink order saying our server would be with us - ok, cool - thank you. A person came to take our drink order - my husband ordered "coffee" and was told "We have a barista - did you mean Americano?" It was unnecessarily snotty. After another person delivered our drinks a woman came up to the table, this is now the fifth person to approach - evidently to take our order, and offended when asked if she was our actual server. She mumbled - it's rather loud with tile floors, glass and an open kitchen - so I couldn't hear her. When I asked her to repeat, she mumbled again. I said "I'm sorry, I can't hear you" and she literally screamed at us "do you want sides for the table...?" Our food sat on the line for a while - arrived lukewarm, and the pecorino in the eggs was so overwhelming it was inedible. Nobody checked on us even though there was clearly a problem with our meal - we sat for another 15 minutes (25 in total since served) and a bus person, who was the nicest of all interactions, took our still full plates. The waitress returned ten minutes later and we told her how bad it was - she said a manager would come by - no manager ever did. I always stay at the adjacent hotel and have eaten here many times, and while the service can be on the snooty side, it's never been this horrendous. I will not be back - For reference, we come down to the "City" monthly, our son lives here, and we hallways stay in the hotel directly next door (which is not actually affiliated with said Hotel...) It's super snooty and pretentious/rude for zero reason - skip it!

Upon entering, it's impossible to miss the two impressive, twin copper-clad wood-burning ovens set into the back wall of this beautiful restaurant. We ordered the kale salad, three types of pizzas, and the swordfish. The kale salad was excellent, the pizzas were excellent, and the swordfish dish didn't disappoint. The homemade ice cream was excellent as well. We'll definitely keep this restaurant in mind for a future visit.

This was one of the better meals we ate during our stay in NYC and I'm pretty sure we will be back. The space itself is lovely, really charming and open with a clear view of the busy kitchen and the super cool wood-burning pizza oven. It's a classy joint with prices to match, but it is truly fine dining. As someone mentioned before, they do really push you to buy water at the outset. That was a bit annoying. The host was like "Something sparkling like your eyes?" I bet that works on some ladies, mister, but really it just annoyed me. I don't like to be pandered to. Anyway.... Our waitress was very sweet. There were moments when she was less attentive than I'd have liked, and she brought me the wrong cocktail accidentally. But overall she provided very good service and thoughtfully answered our many questions. We ordered: -The softshell crab appetizer (a special for that day, my husband liked it, soft shells are not my thing) -The tuna crudo appetizer - excellent, would eat again -The scallops - very good and just a tiny hint of spice that was good even for a spice wuss like me. Huge portion with a lot of lovely veggies underneath and a lovely sauce. Highly recommend. -My husband got the special sea bass, which he destroyed -And we got a pizza for the table, which was very tasty and charred (in a good way) from that wood-burning oven. This place reminded us a lot of one of our favorite restaurants at home so of course we liked it. We will for sure come back next time we're in town.

Bolognese was very good and so was the green juice. Service was fast and great. No need for a reservation got seated fast.

LT casual place. Really tasty. They had a burrata blood orange app with finocchio which was out of this world. Pizzas are pizzas, back to basics. Airy crunchy crust. Had the branzino, buttery/lemony, an enormous meaty hunk of fish, well deboned (for the most part). Dining room is so comfortable and nice, the service is Uber professional. They know what they are doing, and it is soooo good to enjoy the company of work peeps again.

Small menu Delicious grilled octopus Tasty Chianti clásico reserve Old fashioned is very citrusy Friendly staff Roast duck Black Sea bass We said "wow" so many times here. Really impressed. $186 out the door. Thank you Mia for the exceptional service and to the chef for the scrumptious dishes we enjoyed!

There were four of us for dinner. Food was average at best. Service was about the same. Too many other places in the city to try to repeat.

This is an expense account restaurant attached to a trendy hotel so expect high prices and fashionable ambiance. Both the bar and restaurant were bustling on a Thursday evening but we only walked about 15 minutes without a reservation. Service was a bit slow throughout the meal except for the super aggressive sommelier who appeared as soon as we sat down with a 50-page wine list! We opted for wine by the glass from the menu instead and were pleased with the options . We shared an app, a pasta primo and tried 2 desserts and espresso. All were above average and Smokey sized for two, but not stellar. The pasta was a bit salty and the frito miso didn't include the promised veggies, but no complaints about the tiramisu. Also the waiter replenished the bread . Alll in all a pleasant enough meal.

Ordered the grilled octopus, peekytoe crab crostini, skirt steak masala, and the 8 herbs raviolini. I really like the peekytoe crab crostini. It was so good. I also finished the raviolini in less than 5 minutes. It was good too but I think I was also very hungry. The steak was perfect. It has the right amount of flavor and is very tender. I would come back again for dinner.

Dine in Very cozy place with nice ambiance both pizza highly recommend potato dish was not good as imagined/hoped Meal type Lunch Price per person $30-50

I dined here on 10/5/24 - a beautiful Saturday with temps in the mid-70s. I had just arrived in the city and was hungry; it was close to Noon on a Saturday and I knew it would be hard to get a table anywhere. The staff kindly accommodated me. Service by all the staff I encountered was very good. I had the OMELETTE SOUFFLE CACIO E PEPE - honestly, the photo doesn't do it justice, because it was SO TALL. The eggs were well cooked and there was so much flavor. The omelette came with some lightly dressed greens - just enough for a different taste. I also ordered the Bloody Mary. I wasn't as impressed with that, although I did like that the "heat" is provided with horseradish instead of hot sauce. Unfortunately, there was way too much horseradish. (If I'd wanted cocktail sauce, I'd have asked for shrimp.) Otherwise, I was exceptionally pleased with my meal. For those who criticized the pricing, let me just say that this is NYC. The cost of living in NYC is a lot higher than in many other areas of the U.S. I thought the price was reasonable.

We really enjoyed this restaurant, we both ordered pizza, and it was great. The crust was woodfired and perfect! They have a nice wine list as well as beers and great cocktails. People watching was fun as well. You can sit inside or outside on the sidewalk. We found this place because we were staying in the Kimpton Avent hotel where this restaurant is located, and it did not disappoint. They also serve great espresso and cappuccino with pastries in the morning. I recommend.
