I've tried this place about six years ago and must say it's still a great Italian restaurant. The atmosphere is nice and the waiter was attentive. We ordered the rigatoni siciliano which had eggplant on top. Also the capellini crab meat and shrimp. Very good dishes but didn't get that 'WOW this is delious' feeling like some other Italian restaurants. Also, with the breadsticks and crackers you get this chickpeas salad thats actually really good. Overall, a cool spot for some itailain food. read more

1st time here and definitely will come back. We had a very nice romantic dinner on this our 34th anniversary. Service was great food was delish and desert was great. We want to support local people and this is a great place. If you want a nice comfy place to eat this is the place to go read more

I went here with my boyfriend on a calm Sunday night. We had pretty solid expectations for the restaurant because of the reviews, and I can honestly say that it met our expectations. The service was great, every team member works hard and helps each other out. The food was awesome. I had the chicken parm with a side of spaghetti as it is my favorite classic Italian dish. I can honestly say it was the best chicken parm I have ever had. The chicken was cooked to perfection, the crunchiness of the toasted bread crumbs, mixed with the savory sauce was awesome. My boyfriend enjoyed his veal also. I had the chocolate lava cake and it was warm and sweet and decadent. I also had a cappuccino which they offer with a little stick of rock sugar that melts into the coffee. I thought it was a really neat touch. My boyfriend had the fig gelato, which he also enjoyed thoroughly. We kept talking about how the ambience was friendly and homey; were definitely going to bring our family members in the future. read more

I had dinner with my mom here tonight and it was a great experience. My mother is usually hard to please but she actually loved her meal, she ordered the capellini with crab meat and shrimp. Our food was fresh, delicious and the service was great! I will be coming back! read more

DeCosta's Restaurant - White chocolate bread pudding. It was AMAZING!! - Italian Near Me - Yonkers, New York

We just moved from Eastchester to Yonkers. Only about a 15 min drive, but we decided we needed to stop going back to Eastchester for their abundance of Italian food and try something in our area. We went on a Friday at 7:45. They gave us bread, water and chick pea spread as soon as we sat down. The dinner crowd was thinning but people were still being seated. The service was excellent, they gave us water, bread and chick peas right away. We had wine, salads, two of the special entrees, dessert and coffee for around $100. My husband is an Italian tired & true so we do not go out for Italian too often as we eat it at home all the time, but this place is worth a try even for you true-bred Italians. We had a nice quiet evening with great food. Nothing "pushing the envelope" but classic meals that will satisfy. read more

We live in Riverdale, NY just south of Westchester. DeCosta's is a simple family Italian place that is inexpensive and predictable. A good standby for a neighborhood favorite. Nice waitstaff, easy to get to. One warning, avoid Wednesday pasta night.The price is cheap, and the choices reflect it. If you go on Wednesday, just order off the normal menu and you can't go wrong. read more

After a hectic day in the city and decided to seek out a new find on the way back to Fairfield County where it would be quieter. Wow, did we find an incredible place!! The Italian Mojitos were so good and refreshing! Service was impeccable and the food was to die for! I had the chicken francese and they kindly added capers. It was so perfectly seasoned and so moist! My BF had the chicken parm and the serving was so large with the same tender, moist chicken that he kept swearing at himself the rest of the evening for eating it all in one seating! (He couldn't even leave some for take home it was so good!) For a wonderful atmosphere, beautiful and very clean establishment with delicious food, this is one place you need to visit. It's also very reasonably priced! Two drinks, one large appetizer and two entrees and the total was only $63.00! We will definitely be visiting again next time we head down the Saw Mill or Cross County Pky. read more

I realized something was missing in my neck of the woods - a good Italian restaurant, not a chain. Some fresh, homemade pastas, simple dishes, for those days when you're just craving fettucine alfredo or maybe that's just me. I missed this being so close to Arthur Ave previously and I was happy to find a place that sort of fills that void for me. To start with the service is great. Super friendly and whatever you want you got it along with honest recommendations on the food. I've had the pleasure of having penne a la vodka (awesome sauce literally), the alfredo sauce (on gluten free pasta as well as tortellini) and the marinara (also on regular and gluten free pasta) as well as the chicken caprese which was hilarious. If you want to pretend you're being healthy and think you're eating a salad this is the dish for you. It's got an awesome vinaigrette on it and tons of little bites of fresh mozzarella and tomatoes with some greens on the bottom. It was just so fresh tasting. Add to that the potato croquette which is stuffed with mozzarella - beautiful and one of the best I've had in a long time. The alfredo sauce is amazing. Not heavy or greasy and it doesn't separate. This is important because I don't like picking up a plate of something with alfredo sauce and driving home and ten minutes later it's clumpy cream and oil. This stayed together beautifully and didn't taste heavy. Best of all there's gluten free pasta for the little one which is so great. It's not throw away pasta either, it's cooked properly and not mushy just awesome. Wednesday night is pasta night so look out for specials like the seafood stuffed ravioli (the hubby loved it and he's picky about seafood and hates pasta). This definitely filled the void for a need for a strictly Italian restaurant not far from me. So much better than trying to get traditional dishes from a local pizzeria haha. read more

I had the cappelini with chicken and shrimp. The sauce tasted from a can. Not good at all. My wife had the grouper which was ok.

Service was great. Perfect dirty martini. Amazing bread basket. Love the butter and the olive oil was superb! The menu was not typical but still had the basics. The eggplant Pisa was delicious! Cute, casual and cozy. Cannot wait to return! read more

Tried Decosta's for the first time thru UberEats and I must say I was extremely, pleasantly surprised.. the food was still hot the package for my calamari was so, that they didn't get soggy. They were still crisp and great flavor. The penne ala vodka was delicious. All in all one of the best meals I've had by using Uber Eats. Also, it was quick and all the food was available. Not like some places that run out of everything by noon.... read more

Met out of town family here a few weeks ago and it was great! I cant wait to go back!

I live so close to this place and regret only recently going here. The food is amazing and authentic. The service is also outstanding. It is a very small place but it is so nice for a quiet dinner date during the week. I love ordering takeout from there as well. Definitely recommend it! read more

I've always wanted to try this place for a few years. So my husband and I came here a couple of weeks ago and I'm so happy we did. The experience was what I thought and we both enjoyed our dinner. The food was delicious and the service was great. Looking forward to another dinner here again. read more

My boyfriend and I tried this restaurant last night for the first time and it was exquisite! The wait staff was pleasant, prompt and professional. We did not have to ask for anything after we ordered our appetizers and meals. We had the Fried Calamari and a trio of Meatballs in marinara sauce for starters (I can't remember exactly what it's called on the menu lol sorry). Then we both had the Tortellini Della Panna as our entrees. The food was just amazing. Everything came to our table still hot. No heat lamps used here! The Calamari was cooked to perfection and the sauce complimented the meatballs just right. We both loved the tortellini. Personally, I believe the prosciutto was a nice touch. Oh! And don't let me get started on the cheese that they gave us to garnish. #HeavenOnEarth We will definitely be back! read more

There food is delicious! Service is good, I think it's one of the best Italian spots in Yonkers, there uber eats service is a little wonky so delivery takes time... but the food is worth the wait... highly Reccomended. read more

Service is superb. We tried 5 different appetizers, and 3 entrees, as well as their flan- all were delicious. I recommend.

Ended up at DeCosta's because it was the first place I could stop after a horrible drive out of NYC. Lucky me! The food was excellent and the staff was lovely. Real Italian.... Along with about ten plus other stranded folks had a lovely time considering the weather. Highly recommend it and will make sure to stop next time I am in the area. read more

The service and food was excellent. Plenty of parking and tables. The fried calamari was super, tender and flavorful. My husband has the ziti alla Del Gaudio which he thoroughly enjoyed. I had th a halibut special which was moist and delicious. The side of fresh carrots with zucchini was tasty and cooked to perfection. We found the portions sufficient. We shared the white chocolate bread pudding which was so delicious, our disappointment was that we couldn't finish it, too full! LOL. The cappuccino was served hot and was the best I've had anywhere in quite some time. Our server was Nuno, who appears to be an owner, you'd never know as he is humble. The support staff were on top of everything. Great restaurant, fairly priced, we will go back if we are in the area again. Soft music in the background was pleasant and we were able to converse, very nice. Ambiance is nice too. We were on the early side, so we were able to linger a while prior to ordering dessert! read more

Perfect! Delicious, reasonably priced. My husband and I recently visited for an anniversay dinner - we are not from the area so this was literally a crapshoot! We got lucky! A hidden gem and worth stopping by. Traditional Italian food, well seasoned and on the mark. Exceeded our expectations. Will definitely visit again- a nice place to eat before a visit to the Yonkers racetrack/empire city. read more

This is our go to place. It's a nice cozy resturant in Yonkers on the corner of a main street. We have tried just about all the dishes on the menu and they have never disappointed us. The owners are great guys who would go out of their way to accomodate you. The service is great. The atmosphere is relaxing and comfy - just the right vibe for a nice meal. They have a polenta appetizer to die for and they just included in their special dessert menu rotation a carmel gelato that is WONDERFUL !! I would highly recommend this resturant to anyone who wants good food, good service and a good atmosphere read more

This is a favorite spot of my daughter and myself. A cozy friendly atmosphere , the wait staff always pleasant and attentive . The owners are friendly and approachable. When you come in your greeted with a smile, your table has assorted bread basket with olive oil to dip the bread into. The Veal all a nonna is my personal favorite. Ending my meal with a cappuccino and a sorbet or some other creation. Pasta night is always enjoyable. For those you like seafood there is always something fresh on the menu. A great family friendly restaurant. read more

This is my second visit to DeCosta's and I must say it gets better every time. The food and service are superb. The crab lump dip is a must try as well as there signature white chocolate bread pudding and while your at it try the white sangria you wont regret it. They always have fabulous specials which they print off so you don't have to listen to a waiter rant for three minutes what specials they have and forget two minutes later. The waiters and waitresses are always so accommodating. A really great dining experience all around. read more

Four of us ate here on a Wednesday. The front room was packed. Our server was definitely in the weeds. We tried to give him the benefit of the doubt but after waiting to order for 20 minutes we had to ask the bus girl 2x to get him so we could order. Two friends ordered the seafood pescatore and enjoyed it. read more

We found the place on yelp and the reviews are so mixed it was hard to tell if we should even try it but its close to where we live and we are seaching for an italian restaurant to call home! We had dinner there last night and it was forgettable. We all had pasta dishes and the sauce on each taasted exactly alike and very bland. Not a hint of fresh basil or tomato or garlic. The bread was also bland but the oil with olive paste on the bottom was very flavorful. The service was excellent our waiter was very nice but we won't be back read more
