I get the hype. The Focaccia and the Onion Torta - oh my. Those alone would bring me back here. The agnolotti was mouth watering. The Orata - so flavorful and cooked to perfection. The Tartufo - different than I expected, really unique version of tartufo that we enjoyed. Everyone found the food to be delicious. Service was also exceptional, Eleni knew the menu well and made some fantastic recommendations. The space is large and airy. Open kitchen. Wine bar in the elevator. Food tips: Focaccia. Onion Torta Drink tips: Ci Siamo Martini. Peace of Mind read more

Came here off the street with no reservations on a Saturday. They were able to get us a table, which was great. The restaurant is located upstairs. You can either take the stairs or the elevator. If you opt for the elevator, there's complimentary wine set up that you serve yourself. This would be great if the elevator took longer, but you are already there before you can finish pouring. I like that they have couches for you to sit at while you wait for your table. It's an open kitchen and you can see all of the action. The energy felt great here. We ordered the cast iron focaccia and Tuna Tonnato. The Focaccia is probably the best I've ever had. It was light and airy and not what a traditional focaccia would taste like. The crust had a nice crisp to it. It was brushed with olive oil and finished with salt. Just perfect and highly recommend. It came with a tomato chili sauce, which tasted good, but was not needed for this. We ordered the tuna to pair with the bread and it was a great combo. I ended up ordering the hangar steak and it was good. Full of flavor and the chimichurri sauce was a nice touch. Though, I would have like the taste of the beef to come out more. The marinade overpowered the meat IMO. My wife got the Rigatoni alla Gricia. I like the pasta and it was bouncy, but the dish was too salty though. We ended the night with the basque cheesecake and I have to say that it wasn't my favorite. The texture seemed off. Normally basque cheesecake is smooth and creamy, but this was a little lumpy like when you over cook eggs in a dessert. Overall, the service was great and the vibes of the restaurant was on point. The food didn't blow me out of the water, but it was good. I would come back here for the focaccia though. read more

Went here for lunch last week and I can see why this place receives such high praise and reviews. The decor is lovely and you get a free glass of red wine on your way up to the restaurant if you take the elevator. Decor is fancy yet open and the food is fantastic. We especially loved the caramelized onion tart. read more

This restaurant is so so good. It has a Michelin mention and the food is very affordable. They serve you wine on the elevator up to the restaurant! Once there, it took very little time to get seated and put our order it. I would highly recommend a reservation. Wine list has a lot of options and food menu has a lot of different choices - small plates and full size plates. We got the focaccia with sun gold tomatoes- a delicious combo. We continued with the stracci pasta because I really wanted to try the rabbit then finished with the chicken. The ambiance is perfect- just enough noise but not too loud- great for a Friday night out. Plus, looking out to the perfect view of the Empire State building- you can't go wrong! Price was also just right. read more

Ci Siamo is pretty solid. The pastas a good, but the appetizers were delicious. Love the location and venue.

After I learned I would be coming here for a friend's birthday dinner, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that Ci Siamo was named Yelp's #1 restaurant in 2026. When we entered the restaurant and took the elevator up to the restaurant, we were delighted to find free wine provided for us to pour in the elevator. Admittedly, it was red wine, so not my favorite, and it did taste cheap, but still appreciated. To start off, we ordered the onion torta, focaccia, and smashed potatoes. The onion torta was surprisingly good and tasted like a form of french onion soup. As a focaccia enthusiast, the focaccia was fluffy and delicious. We also got the charred beans, carrots, ravioli, tagliatelle, ravioli, and trout to share. The charred beans were surprisingly the long beans and not the smaller ones we expected. However, they were very juicy and better than we thought they would be. The rigatoni resembled cacio e pepe with its pepperiness, the tagliatelle tasted like standard red sauce, but i did enjoy the ravioli and the ricotta inside. For dessert, we had the basque cheesecake which was alright, but I'm not the biggest fan of cheesecake. Overall, we had a great time at Ci Siamo and I would definitely recommend ordering the focaccia and onion torta and we could have skipped the carrots, beans, trout, and tagliatelle. read more

Dear Chase, thank you for introducing me to this incredible date night spot. You'll barely ever see me write a review for Italian spots because I don't even go to any. It's almost impossible for me to ever be happy with Italian food outside of Italy or home. WELL, Ci Siamo proved me WRONG and I'm so happy they did. We came here for a pre concert dinn dinn. Initially I thought we'd just get some drinks and apps and keep it moving. The dishes were jaw dropping and served with the prettiest details. We ordered the tagliatelle al sugo, orechiette with ramps, pistachio and pecorino and the snap peas with bulgur, asparagus and sunflour seeds. WOW WOW WOW The sugo was uncomplicatedly made come lo fa tua nonna. None of the heavy Italian American traditions. All so delicious adding their own twist. The orecchiette was such a creative dish but also so bright, colorful and so many different textures and flavors that to perfectly together. Portions were perfectly sized and we got to share and try everything. If we would've ordered apps it would've been too much. Got the Ci siamo martini (botanical to the core just how I like it!) and a rotating mezcal with aperol drink. Overall great place to dine in or come out with your friends. Be sure to make a resy! read more

A big restaurant with plenty of seatings. They even have outdoor on balcony. The staff was attentive, professional, and friendly. The mocktail industry was tasty. We had two appetizers, roasted carrots and sungold tomatoes. Both were wonderful. We could have a meal with those and bread. The rigatoni and orata were great as well. read more

Tried the Charred beans - very mushy and overcooked Snap peas - were bland Cucumber salad - oddly it was just pickles and blue cheese The rigatoni - solid with a nice sauce The cavatelli with crab - was okay but the sauce was a little thin The wood fired trout - possibly the worst dish I've eaten all year. It was deboned fish stuffed with the mustard greens and there was an overwhelming wasabi flavor to it. Also it was very dry and seemed burnt. The server was very inattentive and we had to flag him down to get anything. This reminded me of eating at an Olive Garden but with way worse food read more

The venue is very nice. Definitely touristy which is fine. The food was good. We started with the gnocchi fritto are good. I had the pork milanese which is a very big dish and not done like tradition, with the salad on top. A tad dry. I took some of the peppers my wife had with her skirt steak to liven it up. In fact that is what that pork should have to accompany the dish. My wife had the skirt steak which was seasoned well but very fatty. All in all it was good. The wine list is extensive but very pricey. The service was ok. read more

{Overall: 5; Food: 5} Ambiance: 5; Service: 5 I loved everything about Ci Siamo. The ambiance is delightful. The restaurant is huge, but still feels warm and inviting. We sat on the patio, which was perfect for a summer day. We enjoyed everything we ate and were genuinely left wanting more by the end of the meal. *Cast Iron Focaccia: Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. The tomato conserva alongside it was delicious. *Mortadella con Pistacchio: Simple and well executed. Great mortadella. *Escarole: Reminded me of a Caesar salad. The leaves were crisp and generously dressed, which I loved. *Braised Beans: I generally do not love beans, but I loved this dish. It felt like a hearty, comforting bean stew. *Rigatoni Alla Gricia: My favorite dish of the night. Rich and creamy with salty guanciale and perfectly cooked pasta. *Roasted Half Chicken: Usually chicken is not something I get excited about at restaurants because it can be bland, dry, or both. This was one of the best restaurant chicken dishes I have ever had. It was perfectly moist, incredibly well seasoned, and felt like a thoughtfully composed dish rather than just a piece of chicken on a plate. Even the white meat was tender, and the skin was fantastic. The service was excellent throughout the meal. Combined with the beautiful setting and consistently strong food, it made for a memorable dining experience. read more

Ci Siamo might have the best foccacia I have ever had and I'm a sourdough bread baker and have had my fair share of good bread... I highly recommend trying it. I got to try a lot of their dishes on a prix fix menu and my favorites were the cast iron foccacia, carmelized onion torta, rigatoni alla gricia, bomboloni, and lemon torta. You have to try the bomboloni if you like rich dark chocolate desserts. It was fudgey, rich and so decadent. Their Amaretto Sour was also delicious, kudos to the bartender who went above and beyond to get an extra ingredient to make it and shook up the delicate egg white top. read more

I came here during a trip to New York City last week, and really enjoyed my time. The staff was wonderful, everyone was very friendly and service was prompt. I only had a late lunch because I wasn't super hungry, but what I had was pretty tasty. Honestly, I was inspired to write this review for the salad lol. The INSALATA VERDE, was freaking incredible. UGH. So fresh and the flavors were perfect. I also got a pasta, CAVATELLI ALLO SCOGLIO, but sadly wasn't that into it. All of the flavors were good, I just think it didn't come together in a way that my taste buds enjoyed lol. But I can't say it was nasty, just not my vibe. Overall was a great visit, and a great location for a cute lunch in the city, especially if you're near the highline! Oh! And I can't forget the cute little welcome wine that they have in the elevator. It's only on the second floor, but it was a nice experience. read more

Despite looking like a casual trattoria, Ci Siamo is run like a fine restaurant and priced accordingly. The servers know the menu very well, work together as a team, clean the table and change plates and silverware between courses. Their Restaurant Week menu is 2 courses of Sardinian items not on the regular menu for $45. A plate of tomatoes is $24! And everything we ordered was outstanding. The tomatoes were delicious, though a little spicy. The tuna tonnato was a fabulous take on the traditional veal. I don't usually like raw tuna, and even I plan to order this again. The onion tart is one of their most popular dishes. It was very rich and filling - loaded with bechemal sauce and caramelized onions. read more

TL;DR: Crowded Italian spot with pricey but large portions. A bit salty, but good flavors otherwise. Best dishes: Cast Iron Focaccia or Caramelized Onion Torta to share. Baba Al Rum was also tasty, as was the Orecchiette. Rigatoni was salty, but well-flavored. I visited a popular Italian restaurant from the Union Square Hospitality group with a group of five others. The restaurant is quite large, and although it was somewhat noisy, the tables were spaced apart enough that it was easy to hear everyone. We had an early dinner at 5:45 PM, which took quite a while, but I didn't mind. To drink, I went with the Bitter Giuseppe for $19, with Cynar 45.3, Punt e Mes, lemon, and sea salt. I'm a fan of most Negronis, and this was a particularly bitter version. The bit of lemon and sea salt added a unique but enjoyable flavor at the end, though in retrospect, the salt probably wasn't super necessary. Two of us split, and eventually, a few of us ordered their signature appetizer, the $18 Cast Iron Focaccia, with tomato conserva, a mixture of crushed tomatoes, olive oil, and Calabrian chili. The bread was fresh and warm, albeit a tad oily and salty, but it paired wonderfully with the conserva. As someone who doesn't like it when bread is extra, this was delicious and worth it. Another person ordered the $18 Insalata Verde. It was very large, but fairly basic, with a vinaigrette that had a citrusy and mustardy flavor. There was also the Caramelized Onion Torta for $27, which was very large, as expected for the price point. It had a creamy and tangy flavor from the Pecorino Toscano with some sweetness from the onion. It was delicious, but very heavy, and I would recommend that around three or four people split it alongside the focaccia. Finally, there was also the $15 Pizza Bianca, which was easily the smallest of all the plates, but they still enjoyed it. My main dish was the Orecchiette for $26, with ramps, pistachio, and pecorino. Like most of their dishes, the portion size was quite large, with plenty of pasta, which was perfectly cooked. The ramps added a touch of sweetness, although I would have liked a few more nuts. Additionally, there was almost too much pecorino, which made the dish slightly salty, but it was still enjoyable. As a side, I got the $19 Grilled Asparagus with dates, vermouth, and blue cheese, which came with many pieces of lightly charred asparagus. While there was plenty of funky blue cheese, I would have preferred more dates. Two of the others got the Rigatoni Alla Gricia for $30. The portion was large, and I tried a bit while they tried mine. The noodles were again cooked perfectly, and while there was a lot of guanciale, this was easily the saltiest of all the dishes. For dessert, I chose their Baba AU Rum for $18, which was uniquely mixed with chocolate and orange. The presentation was a bit off, as it looked like a certain emoji, but the flavor made up for it. The subtle hint of rum paired with the bitter-sweet chocolate and orange. The dark chocolate-covered orange slice on top was a nice touch as well. Someone else got a tart, and one other person got the Gelati, which resulted in one of the only faults during service. She heard it was two scoops, and ordered espresso stracciatella and hazelnut, but was given two separate orders for $12 each. The gelato was good, but unlike most things, definitely not worth it for the price. I liked the appetizers much more, but I found the food good overall. Tasty dessert, and the portions make up at least a bit for the relatively higher prices. read more

I'll go as far as saying Ci Siamo is my favorite Italian spot in NYC after Misi Ci Siamo was named the #1 restaurant in the U.S. by Yelp in 2026, and EVERY SINGLE DISH HIT! I saw fellow Yelper friends Lailah J and Stacy K's great reviews so I decided to give them a try. You HAVE to get the caramelized onion torta, and you really can't go wrong with any of their pasta. The vibe is upscale but still cozy, with enough space between tables so it doesn't feel packed. It's not that difficult to get a res if you book early. ＊Caramelized Onion Torta $27 ** Their signature torta absolutely slaps. One of the best bites I've ever put into my mouth. Rich, creamy, and cheesy, almost like a French onion soup in pie form. It's definitely indulgent, so I'd recommend sharing. ＊Marinated Broccoli $18 * Didn't expect to fall in love with a veggie dish, but here we are. The broccoli was packed with flavor and finished with smoked chili and crunchy breadcrumbs. ＊Rapini Agnolotti $29 ** Stuffed with ricotta just how I liked it. The bright citrusy note from the lemon really lifted the dish and balanced everything well. ＊Rigatoni Alla Gricia $30 ** Super satisfying. The guanciale was crispy and savory, and the rigatoni held onto the creamy sauce well. ＊Olive Oil Poached Orata $38 Since they're known for their handmade pasta, the entree didn't quite wow me. The fish had a few small bones, which threw me off a little. ＊Lemon Torta $18 The olive oil meringue was fluffy and light, pairing with the tangy lemon tart. It didn't leave a strong impression though. ＊Torta Calabrese $18 ** I'm usually not a chocolate dessert person, but I actually preferred this over the lemon torta. The combo of espresso gelato and rich dark chocolate cake was a match made in heaven. I loved the slight bitterness in it. read more

I was really impressed by the service here! Our server was so sweet, and she noticed that my husband and I had switched entrées, so she came over to ask if everything was okay and if I was sure that I wanted to keep the pasta. I ended up keeping the pasta, but then she ended up giving us a complementary almond gelato, which was just so kind of her and not necessary. When you enter, the entrance is really nice, and you have to go up to the second level, so you can either take the stairs or the elevator. The restaurant itself is pretty large, and it has a nice view of the Empire State building as well. We ordered: - Caramelized Onion Torta (5/5) this was our favorite dish! We've never had anything like it. - Insalata Verde (5/5) this balanced out the torta very well, and it was very refreshing and light. - Rigatoni Alla Gricia (4/5) I got this because it was recommended by a lot of people, but I think at the end of the day I am a tomato sauce girlie, because this sauce was very heavy and very creamy. Don't get me wrong, it was good, but it was just a lot to try to eat in one sitting. - Orecchiette (5/5) I really liked this dish, as well as the little bit of heat! - Pistachio Gelato (4/5) I liked the texture of the gelato, but I couldn't really taste the flavor of the pistachio at all. Maybe it's because the almond gelato was just much stronger in terms of the flavor. - Negroni (5/5) so good! read more

This is a chic, rather large, Italian spot. We came here before seeing a show and it did not disappoint. The best bite of the meal was the Carmelized onion torta, it was absolutely delicious with balsamic and just enough cheese. We also shared the smashed potatoes which were great, and the cucumber salad which was soooo unique and tasty. I was also impressed they had two NA wine options but sadly no reds. I did still enjoy my NA Pinot Grigio. Lastly, we got the rigatoni alla gricia. This was probably my least favorite, it wasn't very memorable. Our server was super sweet though and I think this was a very affordable spot in the city! read more

We went here for a dinner with coworkers and found the food, service and ambiance to be great. This place gives off the vibes of being an institution - for all good reasons and they lived up to it. We started off with a selection of alcoholic and non alcoholic mixed drinks which were all rated good by the drinkers. We ordered a mix of appetizers - the caramelized onion & cheese torta was a table favorite, as was the salad which had a perfectly balanced tangy dressing. We also enjoyed the smashed cucumbers. Next we got a selection of pastas, the guanciale was a favorite and we also enjoyed the rabbit and crab pasta. Entrees were the steak, a good sized portion, grilled chicken on the bone and an excellent pork Milanese with anchovy sauce on the side. We ended our meal with a lemon torta, basque cheesecake and an espresso dark chocolate cake - which was more like a sorbet but nevertheless delicious. Our server gave us great suggestions, including going for a family style meal and did not rush us making this a memorable meal. read more

I had lunch here and ordered the Smoked Carrots and the Tuna Tonnato. It is not what I expected. Far better than I thought because I saw what the people next to me ordered. Excellent! Located on the 2nd floor of the Manhattan Esplinade in Hudson Yards. And then another elevator to go up a floor. Both had some creamy base under the dish. And both were delicately seasoned and flavorful. Definitely a foodie's choice. I also ordered the Lemon meringue which I usually love. Their Lemon meringue is a surprise which came in such smooth cream served with a torched meringue with lots of olive oil. I think 2 people could have had it. read more

Ci Siamo was decadent. Service, decor, food and cocktails are all show-stoppers. It's definitely not surprising how popular of a place this is. What I tried: + Negroni. Smooth, flavorful and the perfect cocktail to enjoy with some small plates + Crunchy ravioli. This is an oversized ravioli filled with cacio e pepe goodness and topped with lots of shaved parm. An order comes with two and you can add on a third a la carte. This is a must-order. + Onion tarte. This is incredibly rich and is basically like French onion soup on top of bread. Worth trying, but just note that it's heavy. + Pastas! The rigatoni was my favorite and this was basically just like cacio e pepe. That's another must-order. The beef pappardelle was just okay and probably would not order again. Portions of both pastas are extremely generous. + Veggie sides! Broccoli was perfection - I always like broccoli with my pasta. Carrots were great but just note that they are pretty rich for a veggie side since they come topped with lots of herbs, capers and cheese. Dinner was fabulous and I can't wait to return. read more

The food was outstanding: every dish was well prepared, flavorful, and absolutely worth ordering. Unfortunately, the service was a major disappointment. It took more than 10 minutes for our wine to arrive after we ordered it. After we finished eating, our dirty plates sat on the table for over 15 minutes while multiple staff members walked by without clearing them. I eventually had to place a plate over my food just to get someone's attention. Our wine glasses were never refilled, and the only time anyone checked on us was after we had completely finished our meal to ask how the food was. It's frustrating because the kitchen did an excellent job, but the service fell far short of the quality of the food. I probably won't return because there's so many options in the city. read more

Amazing atmosphere, chic yet warm AND across from Moynihan so we left 15 minutes before our train left! The service was impeccable, and the food was all so tasty. Highlights were the onion tart and pretty much every single pasta.

Went to Ci Siamo after scouring Reddit reviews! This whole meal was fantastic, but the BRAISED BEANS. Holy cow. The write-up in the New York Times was wholly deserved and completely lived up to the hype. Our waitress, Rebecca, was so sweet and helpful. She guided us through the menu and kindly offered my sister a whole bowl of olives for her dirty martini to get it just right. She even gave us some great recommendations for our trip! Cool space on second floor, despite being situated in a plaza, and the staff works hard to give everyone a great experience from the moment you walk in. The pastas were so fresh and flavorful, and I will never look at beans the same, knowing they can taste that good. read more

I had read about this restaurant in the Top 100 Yelp restaurant list, so I made a reservation and was very excited to try it out. The elevator to the dining room was cute, it had a nice bottle of wine and table inside it, giving it a charm and coziness that was unexpected. We got seated right away (right at our reservation time slot) and our server was very nice and professional. I got a glass of Prossecco and my husband got a zero proof beer. Both very good. We started the meal with the braised beans app and it was very good...a bit salty, but that was expected. I got the whole trout entree and it was nicely cooked with vegetables and herb stuffing. The dish was filling and large. My husband got the skit steak and it was very savory, but the flavors of either dish were not WOW. They were just average. The dining room was very loud.....to the point that I could not wait to get out of it...it was just not a relaxing experience nor atmosphere. I tried it, but it was just OK for me. read more

I'm still thinking about their onion torta!! It was so cheesy, yet so onion-forward. The crunchy layer of pecorino cheese and black pepper added more savory flavors. The buttery crust held together all the ingredients nicely. The salad was a little too citrus forward but better when eaten with the cheese pieces. I wish there were more mint leaves to spice up the flavor profile. The roasted carrots featured a lot of herbs, capers, yogurt, and olive oil. I can see how it may be too salty or overwhelming for others but I enjoyed the combination of flavors! For mains, the rigatoni was well done and very delicious. The sauce was creamy and pepper-y, as if carbonara and cacio e pepe had a baby. The pasta was al dente and the guanciale added a good umami layer to the dish. The stuffed trout was one that I can skip next time. The fish itself was solid and accompanied by pickled veggies. I just didn't think they quite complemented each other. For desserts, their espresso stracciatella was very coffee forward with good chunks of dark chocolate. Loved how it wasn't too sweet and had a great smooth texture. The basque cheesecake was fluffy with a great texture, but the orange notes clashed a little bit with the rhubarb sauce. The cream itself was delightful. Staff were polite. Food came out quick but it was a busy week night so it took us a while to get water in the beginning and the check at the end. Despite being late, they were still able to accomodate us without any issues. I enjoyed the giant windows, open kitchen concept, intimate dim lighting, and dark wood furniture with classic Italian restaurant decor. Be sure to get some free wine from the elevator on your way in/out! read more
