Tried this place out with my family for my dad's birthday. Place is very small and seems to do a lot of business, so it was loud and everyone was packed pretty tightly together. Service wasn't great, we had to wave down the waiter any time we need something, whether it be napkins or drinks. Food was good, not amazing. The pizza had a soupy top, soft bottom, and the cheese slid right off. Roasted chicken was mainly dark meat, the onion bread thing didn't have any flavor beyond onion, no other spices. The lemon pasta was very zesty and bright with the lemon flavor. Tiramisu for dessert was really good, although we didn't order it outright, but merely said the name when asking for the dessert menu. Some employee had told my mother they would bring my dad something on the house for his birthday, so we thought it was that until the bill came and saw a charge for $15. Glad to have tried this place, but wasn't blown away by the experience. And a B health rating if you judge by that sort of thing.
We got garlic bread, rigatoni and mashed potatoes. The dishes were overall good but I think overly priced for what it is. It was about $10 extra to add ricotta to the pasta dish. Attentive staff.
Idk what has been going on in New York lately, but it is proving impossible to walk into a restaurant on a weekday night and get a seat. Sometimes, I don't want to make a reservation, I just want to let the spirits guide me. Some people do it by the book but I prefer to go by feel... All this to say, my Lil Cuzzo and I were reject from the following places on a mf Wednesday night: Shuka, Raku, Pinch, Port Sa'id, RedFarm, and Little Owl before we were finally seated outdoor at Daddies. Well to be fair, RedFarm was closed and Little Owl had horrendous vibes as, while standing outside waiting to see if there was room, a homeless lady HURLED an empty wine bottle at us that shattered at our feet while screaming gibberish at the top of her lungs. She had an ARM on her honestly. Thank God she didn't aim for the head, it would have been CURTAINS. Well I would have slipped it no problem, my quick twitch muscle fiber is ELITE. All this to say, we dipped on Little Owl. The omens clearly didn't want us there. After getting our steps in and licking our wounds from constant rejection and shards of glass, Lil Cuzzo and I were finally seated on the heated outdoor patio at Daddies. We immediately ordered glasses of chilled red wine trying to process what happened. HUGE props to Daddies for having chilled red cuz lord knows we needed it BAD. Chilled reds don't get the proper love they deserve. Lil Cuzzo, while rubbing glass out of her eye, put it so eloquently when she said "It's not like we were trying to walk into Carbone..." We ordered the Daddies Salad, a Prosciutto Pizza, and the Rigatoni Al Ragu. The Salad was an assortment of fresh veggies and a great way to start the meal. The meatballs in the Rigatoni were a necessary touch. The Prosciutto Pizza was fantastic, with the crust being the standout. Good crust is harder to come by then people wanna talk about.... Overall the food was pretty damn good, especially given how negative these other reviews seem to be. I think the negativity is mostly due to being cash only, which I do kind of agree with lol. You gotta be LIKE THAT to be cash only. You gotta be Casa Adela level for people to be cool with cash only. I will leave you with the wise words of Draymond Green: "Chasing that cash only payment?? They don't love you like that. You can't get no cash only payment. They don't love you like that ... You thought you was Casa Adela!?!" IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov__
Pretty snug and felt crammed in there but the food was fantastic and the interior decor was very cute- I love the wall of family photos old and new. The ordered a few pastas, meatballs, a burrata pizza from the specials menu and some other sides for the table. Couldn't pick a favorite and I can't wait to be back to try more items on the menu! Staff was hospitable and food came out quickly. Sangria was pretty bland so go for the normal wine over the sangria for sure!
TGIF and you want the privilege of sitting outside on Hudson Street inhaling the exhaust, you need Daddies. Much more than a pizza shop, lunch starts around $20 pp but you will have your choice of tables and the service is swift, which is appreciated at lunch hour. No one was around so can't tell you about ambiance! Enjoyed our two shared platters and what more can you ask for at a $50 lunch. We hear that this is a popular night spot so will come back after dark sometime.
Their famous SPAGHETTI LIMONE is one of the most bland, tasteless pasta dishes I've ever consumed. I also got a wild mushroom pasta and also...really dry and flavorless. I'm giving this place 2 stars as the servers were very kind and attentive. For the price of the dishes compared to the quality... it's not worth it.
First - only marking down a star bc it's expensive / cash only. That being said, most good Italian spots are over priced and a lot of NYC spots are cash only. If you're thinking about trying Daddie's - just do it. You can go wrong with anything on the menu! My absolute favorite dish is the spaghetti limone, it's addicting and I think about it often. But you truly can't go wrong, their apps are good, their pizzas are amazing and altho I normally get the limone, other macaronis I've tried are also good. + love a place that gives you bread and olive oil (bonus, delicious olives). I think they only serve wines and beer, no cocktails.
The best "non-wowing" Italian... as good as it can be before being "wowed," akin to finding the best plain white t-shirt. I love the ambiance; it resembles "this is a labor of love" and a home cooking feeling. The thing that makes Daddies striking is the pizza dough. As far as wood oven pizzas go, the dough itself is among the best I've ever had. It is so pillowy and fluffy, so much so that the middle of the crust almost reminds me of sourdough. The pasta is good, I want to love the pasta limone, but I just don't find it to be anything special. This is Lil Frankie's sister restaurant!!!
Delicious food. Wow. Service was good. Our waiter walked me through orange wines and let me have a taster since I was unfamiliar. The atmosphere was lively. Most of the seating is outside and on the sidewalk. There's literally two small tables inside. It wasn't that cold the evening we came but they had no heat lamps when I visited in mid October. Hope they bring them out for winter. You are literally seated on the street. Our table was next to a parking meter. I don't know what else says New York dining experience. We ordered the lightning kale. I was so skeptical but it was delicious. I'm only eating kale like this from now on. It was perfectly seasoned and crisp. We also ordered a cheesy bread for a starter. Yum. Bread and cheese. Can't go wrong. I ordered a vodka pasta for my main. Wow, delicious. Scarfed down the whole bowl in a matter of minutes. Pasta was perfectly Al dente and the sauce was tasty and well seasoned. Everyone in my party loved their entrees. All the pasta we tried was excellent. Highly recommend visiting when in New York.
Came here for dinner on Friday. We made a reservation for 6pm and sat outside in the outdoor structure. They have plenty of heaters so we were very comfortable even on a cool fall evening. Our waiter was great and very attentive. They give you some bread to start. We just stuck with water for our meal. We got the rigatoni al ragu and added the ricotta as well as the prosciutto di parma pizza. The rigatoni was amazing and you must add the ricotta. The pizza was so delicious. The crust was so fluffy. They are cash only which is sad! But just a heads up. They also brought us a complementary tiramisu for our anniversary!
This place definitely deserves 5 stars! Food was delicious and portions were generous. We split as a table pizza, and variety of pasta + the roasted eggplant. Everything was superb and the service was great too! The setting was intimate and cozy, perfect for an evening with coworkers, friends, or even a date night!
Another absolute banger from the Frank/supper/lil Frankie's crew. Was super stoked to be in NYC as they were opening and it didn't disappoint. We got the shaved fennel, a vodka pie, a Cacio pepe pie, and the lasagna verde. I can't pick one thing that was my favorite because they were all great. The Cacio pepe was absolutely incredible, the sauce on the pizza was incredible. The dough for both pizzas was also incredible with the right amount of char and chew. Can't wait to go back soon!

nice experience overall. wouldnt be my choice to come back but wouldn't mind if someone else wanted to the pizza was great - absolutely loved the crust. vodka sauce and cheese were yummy. the pasta was ok - too salty and didn't like the meatballs. thought the restaurant itself was very cute and had lots of character! a bit crowded but for nyc didn't mind it. the music choice was club music though and very loud - probably my biggest deterrent from coming back as i had to scream to talk to my friend read more
Good brunch experience. It wasn't packed and the music wasn't too loud either. Food was good (can't wait to have their non-breakfast/brunch menu) and coffee was the best. Suggest trying any of the brunch items in cooked in their coal fired oven. read more
Visited Daddies primarily because I love Lil Frankie's spaghetti limone and heard that Daddies offers gluten free pasta. Needless to say my craving was fulfilled but the version at Daddies didn't quite live up to Lil Frankie's although on paper they are the same thing. It was a little more bland and dry. The restaurant itself has a warm, old-timey feel and the staff is nice but you are practically stacked on top of other guests. While not uncommon for NYC it felt especially stuffed with everyone's winter coats on their chairs. If Lil Frankie's offers gluten free pasta I'd probably opt to go there instead! read more

Had an excellent experience trying Daddies for the first time! While they don't take reservations, the hostess was a PRO and took our names down early letting us know she would find something to work for us when we came back! We snagged one of three tables inside (there's much more availability outdoors) and immediately knew the spaghetti limone was a must. We also went with the funghi and the vodka pizzas. The food came out quickly and was delish! We devoured every last bite. Not only was the service top notch, but the food was 10/10. I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a casual pizza/pasta night. Keep in mind, they are BYOB and cash only! read more

Portions and quality that will Blow your mind. Not sure why you're not eating at daddies. Our only issues on a Monday memorial weekend lunch was that there only seems to be one waiter for the outside tables ( I counted 8) and he forgot to bring my capuchino and additional bread order. Pro tip: ignore the people complaining it's cash only - this is true for all the restaurants owned by Frank. It is well known and posted. Do not pass the mozzarella and tomatoes (while not heirlooms, it was delish). So much pasta for such a great price. Order the salsicca pizza. Yes, add ricotta to your pasta and mix it in well! read more
Daddies Pizza is the latest Frank Prisinzano restaurant. Frank has a winning formula, great pizza and pasta with good appetizers with basic Italian wine with good service all reasonably priced. Service is good too. The ambiance at Daddies is better than his earlier restaurants. Please note, all his restaurants are cash only. read more

Skip Daddy's. Less than 4 star reviews seem to be buried by friends of the fam. 8:00pm on a Tuesday. Loved the mellow 1/4 mill woodwork interior but couldn't sit there bc the staff had on inappropriate & loud rave music and the heat from the partially open kitchen made it unavailable as well. No AC in operation. No one else was seated there either and only 2-3 tables of over a dozen outside were occupied. Telling? Read on: Pizza crust was not crusty save for the rim of the pan. I'm not familiar with soggy pizza being a thing. "Wild" mushroom were dry, uncoated with oil. Odd. Spunto's about 3 blocks SE blows Daddies (Daddy's) out of the water on pies. Papardella with Lamb. The pasta was great, the lamb ragu I wish to forget: just a few tiny cubes of tough stewing meat cooked for far too short a time. Real Ragu simmers for hours. Rafel's, also 3 blocks to the SE, master's this dish. They also have an owner, manager, and maitre d whenever open for the trade, all lacking here. Just a waiter dressed like a delivery truck driver wearing his street clothes and a baseball hat. Unusual for this dinning district. Finally, if you're running 10 restaurants, how do you let a B health grade with a dozen nasty sounding Violations go uncorrected for a year: "Anti-siphonage or back-flow prevention device not provided where required; equipment or floor not properly drained; sewage disposal system in disrepair or not functioning properly. Condensation or liquid waste improperly disposed of. Non-food contact surface or equipment made of unacceptable material, not kept clean, or not properly sealed, raised, spaced or movable to allow accessibility for cleaning on all sides, above and underneath the unit. Wash hands sign not posted near or above hand washing sink. Food, supplies, or equipment not protected from potential source of contamination during storage, preparation, transportation, display, service or from customer's refillable, reusable container. Condiments not in single-service containers or dispensed directly by the vendor." read more

Had a great early dinner w/o rez. Love Frank's restaurants. This one is well done aesthetically albeit a small space. Beautiful oven. Menu has lots to choose from. We started with the white pizza. The cheese was delicious and creamy. Pastas were al dente and well seasoned. The roasted eggplant was a nice presentation but lacked the flavor I hoped for. It's a whole eggplant cut open and drizzled will evoo. Service was attentive and easy. Would def return. read more

TLDR: food is fine but the service is abysmal and the food Is not good enough to justify your server making fun of you, in front of you, to other staff members I just finished dining here with a friend and am honestly astounded by the experience we just had. We were excited to try this place based on great reviews from others but the service here is actually abysmal. From the start, our waitress (who unfortunately I forget the name of but she has brown hair and a terrible attitude) was rude bc she saw we had brought a bottle of wine and condescendingly informed us it was no longer BYOB. We were surprised having seen all the social media content about it being byob but had no problem putting our wine away and moving on with the night. Once she saw we weren't going to order wine from the menu she continued with her shortness and 1. Didn't bring the coke we ordered 2. Never once checked on our table 3. Only came by when we asked for the check and once again condescendingly informed us it was cash only when she saw us pull out our card. All of those interactions put aside, the cherry on the cake was when we left the cash and got up and then immediately saw her go to the hostess and make fun of us for not knowing it was cash only by mimicking us saying "we didn't know ". Seriously so unprofessional and rude. Even if the food is okay it doesn't justify being so unpleasant and making our dining experience so terrible. Do not patronize this place with your money!! I truly have never had such a bad service experience in all my time at hundreds of restaurants across the city. read more

Incredible. Amazing. Delicious. Best of the best. I dream about anything from the Frank group but the meatball pizza from Daddies takes the cake. Dying to try the vodka pie next time I'm there because the penne vodka was amazing as well. I don't think you can have a bad meal here. Go go go read more

Whoa whoa whoa! Frank never lets me down this place is excellent, it's unassuming and so amazing. Every dish was better than the last. The food is unreal but the service is really the shining star. It feels like a true team effort with everyone working together and nothing was ever even slightly missed. Even after we paid they kept refilling water, our server gave great advice on ordering and was super friendly and helpful. 10/10+ if you are even close to the area stop in! read more
