    388 is a restaurant favorite in my family. They have something for everyone on their menu. We ordered their meatball parm sliders, eggplant parmigiana, brussel sprouts, fries, Caesar salad, lamb chops, chicken paillard, etc. Everything was delicious, but our favorite was the eggplant parmigiana. I also really like how they have round tables which makes it a great spot for large parties because everyone is able to talk to one another. They have another location in Boca Raton, Florida. I recommend it if you're looking for quality family style food.

    A few weeks ago, my family and I had dinner at 388 and it was amazing! Our waiter, Joe, really made the experience special. He was incredibly friendly, walked us through the whole menu, and gave us great recommendations for drinks and appetizers. We started with the meatballs, which were huge and delicious. For entrees, we had the chicken parm, the sauce was incredible and everything tasted so fresh. For dessert, I highly recommend the tiramisu. Everyone in my family loved their meals, and we can't wait to go back.

    Staff and management work very hard to give you the best they possibly can. Food is off the charts and served family style.

    Penne alla vodka & chicken parm

    My boyfriend and I went here for Valentine's Day dinner and it was excellent. The service was fantastic--though they were busy, we were seated and in and out pretty quickly. We had the Caesar salad, baked clams, penne alla vodka, and chicken parmigiana. This was the best chicken parm I've ever had! The ambiance was beautiful, especially decorated for Valentine's Day. All around it was a great experience with spectacular service and delicious food!

    Lamb chops with rosemary potatoes

    Stopped here for a second time and it was so good! The bread and bruschetta they bring you is delicious. We then had the Caesar salad which was very good. Everything is family style so for dinner we shared lamp chops with rosemary potatoes and the frutti di mare linguine. Both were excellent. The seafood in the linguine was very tender absolute perfection. Restaurant was still busy for a week day. Service was excellent.

    We have been going to 388 for many years. It's basically very good Brooklyn Family style Italian food. The owners and waiters are very attentive to the customers. Our waiter this evening Marty "McFly" was fantastic. I think we amazed him with how much we eat ...lol. We will definitely put in our rotation more often.

    TLDR: Tasty/filling value Italian. 388 Italian is one of those places that reminds you why dining in Long Island is awesome. Any dish that has Krak in it you should order. Randomly popped in with family. So much value, I almost was questioning who eats this much food. Nonetheless, 388 definitely gives you your money's worth. Split a fried calamari, baked clams, pasta a la (Alex/Chris/Joey - the one with lotsa meat) something, chicken parm and the shrimp Krak. Calamari was tender with a very light dusting for batter. Clams were tasty although a bit small and on the pricier side. The pasta with the meat was tasty. Chicken parm was solid. The Krak is probably what they're known for. I don't know what it is exactly but it tastes like garlic, vinegar peppers and a crap ton of butter. It's garlicky, savory, rich, tangy and delicious. Come with a big team, wearing even bigger sweatpants. You roll out of here, happy, full and food coma'd AF.

    The Krak shrimp and rigatoni all a vodka
    Cristina-Marie C.

    Let's start with the food. The food was probably one of the best Italian meals I have had. Everything was super fresh and delicious. The restaurant was extremely busy but everyone was amazing providing service. My husband and I came for a date night and didn't realize that the restaurant was family style lol. Either way we ordered and ate our asses off! Everything was amazing and even had a bit to take home! The restaurant ended up needing us to move our table and we got moved to an even better table and took such good care of us seeing as how we have a baby at home and don't get out much. We will absolutely be coming back!! I do recommend making a reservation in advance!

    Rigatoni Bolognese

    SO GOOD! The Shrimp Luciano was amazing. Veal Marsala you cut with your fork. The Rigatoni Bolognese was lights out-the pasta was truly al dente and flavorful. Fried zucchini and baked clams as apps were good. Great drinks! Cosmos, Espresso martinis and Old Fashioneds. Fun, classy atmosphere - 'modern old school' - and attentive service. Looking forward to our next visit!!

It's small but nice in here, had always known about Il Mulino but just recently tried it. Got two prefix lunches. They provide a complimentary bread basket with focaccia, some parmigiano and zucchini chips. Starters we chose beef carpaccio and octopus. The carpaccio is classic, pounded thin, shaved parmigiano and a lemony arugula salad on top. The octopus is tender and served with pickled onions and a frisee salad. Mains, did the lobster ravioli and the steak frites. Large size ravioli but three pieces, so they do go quickly. The lobster is mixed in with the ricotta which is quite soft. The steak portion was decent but keep in mind also a $10 add-on. Cooked a bit more well than I'd like but the sauce was good. Desserts were a panna cotta and flourless chocolate cake. The panna cotta has a more bouncy jello-like consistency. Chocolate cake was good. Not bad options for a PF lunch but definitely standard menu will add up fast.

There was a small parking lot and upon entry parts of the place was still under renovation. Since we had early dinner there were families dining and the place was overall empty. Our server was knowledgeable and was upselling alcohol to my husband. When he told the server he wanted ginger ale, the server stated that they did not have ginger ale so he had to settle for a glass of wine. We ordered from the Sunday Supper prix fixe menu. We received complimentary bread, salami and zucchini. For the appetizers we ordered the eggplant rollatini, mussels and minestrone soup. For the main entrees I ordered the ravioli al porcini with truffle and veal marsala. I loved the ravioli with truffle. Portions were small. Dessert was served with a sampler of cake slices. I would definitely love to return especially that their prix menus have been expanded but unfortunately they do not have the items we ordered in their current prix fixe menus.

    Five of us were there on a Wednesday for dinner and were able to order off the $40 three-course…read morespecial menu, which was more extensive than others we've seen. Like most three-course special menus, there are upcharges for various selections. Sometimes in retrospect I regret ordering three courses because a single entrée is sufficient. That was the case here because I was almost full after eating their chopped salad appetizer and the heated Italian bread and butter that preceded the entrée. I was surprised because an appetizer salad is often a small or medium sized plate, but here it's a full sized platter. Also, I ate it all, when I could've taken home half. Ditto for my entrée, their chicken marsala. I know that some of our friends purposely take home half of everything, so they get two meals out of one order. My decision, however, piggy as sounds, was that one of their included desserts was the tiramisu, which I have trouble resisting ... to the point where I try to sample them in as many restaurants and bakeries as possible, as if someday, somewhere, I'll submit an article on the subject ... "Tiramisus of Long Island and NYC." The food and service were very good, we had a large round table in the back, that made it easy for us to talk, a nice tablecloth and thick napkins, but I've had better tiramisu. A free glass of white or red wine came with the special, but I didn't like mine and should, like my son, have gotten a diet Coke instead (a permissible substitution). The parking situation was a minor hassle in that there was no valet, and while a sign in front of the restaurant suggested parking in the lot across the street, when we went there, the signs said that after 5:30 PM they'll tow you away, so we found a spot in the neighborhood and walked a few blocks. We'd be happy to go back, although there are Italian restaurants just as good that are closer to where we live. This Matteo's was half way between where we five reside, and convenience matters, especially on a weekday night.

    What a turnaround! My prior review was from 3 years ago when the restaurant was called Sandro's and…read morebefore the renovation. We would not have come back except we had plans with friends who wanted to meet here. So glad we did! My main complaint before was the acoustics. The renovation with added decor to dampen noise did the trick. I didn't even notice that the restaurant was full. We ordered different dishes and ate it family style so got to try a few different dishes. I didn't order so don't know the specific names but we shared a salad, a spicy calamari, egg yolk ravioli, black linguini with seafood, catfish, and a veal parm. I especially enjoyed the ravioli. Flavors were nice on all the dishes. I don't know if it was the company but I didn't notice a lapse in service. The servers were attentive. The parking was still ample. I'm glad we came back and a little regretful that we waited so long.

    Let me start by saying this was hands down one of the most exceptional dining experiences I've had…read morein a long time. From the moment we walked in, the hospitality was truly next-level. The ambiance was warm and inviting, and every single person from the host to the bartender to our server and everyone in between played a part in making the night feel special. The attentiveness, professionalism, and genuine kindness did not go unnoticed, and it set the tone for the entire evening. We were first greeted with warm bread and olive oil, which was absolutely delightful and the perfect start. Our server, Paulino (I hope I'm spelling his name right), guided us through the menu with such care and knowledge, which made the experience even better. We started with the mussels Bianco and baked clams both were outstanding, easily a 9/10. Fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. For our entrées, we had the branzino and a pasta dish that was nothing short of amazing. The attention to detail like freshly cracked pepper added right at the table made everything feel elevated and thoughtfully done. To end the night, I mentioned that my mom had just passed her real estate exam and that we were celebrating her. They went above and beyond by bringing out an apple crostini with a candle, which was such a thoughtful and memorable touch. And yes, we devoured the entire thing. It was that good. Truly a 10000/10 moment. What made this experience even more meaningful is that it came after a long, stressful day at the ER. Walking into such warmth, care, and genuine hospitality meant more than I can put into words. Thank you again for the incredible service, attentiveness, and overall experience. I truly wish I could remember everyone's names because each person we encountered was a pleasure. Please let them know my mom and I are so grateful. We dined on April 3rd around 9 PM, and it's a night we won't forget.

They start you off with some warm buns served with honey butter and they were GOOD. So good that we asked for more and then tried to stop ourselves from devouring them before our food even arrived. For appetizer, we ordered the crispy calamari. The batter was very light and the calamari itself was so delicate and sweet. You can definitely tell how fresh the seafood is and that stayed true for the rest of our meal. For pastas, we got the spaghetti fra diavolo containing lobster and shrimp. Again, the seafood was fresh, sweet, and tender. The pasta was also a shocker, not only was it perfectly firm, it had such a nice chewy texture. You can feel and taste how homemade the pasta is. Next, the rigatoni eggplant was our unexpected favorite. The pasta texture was even better with the rigatoni shape and the eggplant was not even noticeable, it blended in so well with the sauce. The ricotta on top was the perfect creamy addition. For proteins, the pork chop was very tender and juicy. The sweet glaze wasn't overly sweet and it really complimented the savoriness of the meat. The brussel sprouts on this dish were also outstanding. I love when a restaurant doesn't treat the veggies as a side dish! The branzino was light and refreshing, it was a really great balance to the other saucier dishes we had. The service was extremely attentive and so friendly.
