    Inside/Out

    Hubs and I knew we wanted to grab dinner before seeing his friend perform and we also knew we needed to stay close to The Joyce Theater across the street. So with zero reservations anywhere, we tried our luck at LouLou (the menu and vibe looked incredible), but no dice for walk-ins- same story at a couple of other spots. Then we spotted Fumo. Even from the outside, this place looked pumpin', so we took our chances. Sure enough, the manager worked some magic and slid us into a cozy corner nook. Gracias! The vibe is loud but not the chaotic, echo-in-the-room kind of loud. It's lively and social without being irritating. The high ceilings definitely help and give the room space. What softens the space, is the low-hanging bulb lighting fixtures with a soft amber glow turning the whole place nice and warm. Between the meal, the fun energy and the Amapiano music playing in the background, I was practically dancing in my seat. Or maybe it's just that hubs and I haven't been in the city since moving up to the boonies? Our server was smooth and focused. The cocktails, however read awesome on paper- but had no substance. The fried calamari starter was an absolute pile- in the best way. Each piece had a nicely seasoned dredge that gave it flavor even before the dip hit. My $27 Branzino was chunky and came with a generous helping of garlicky sautéed spinach. But the real star was the butter+lemon sauce. It wasn't just a squeeze of lemon and a pat of butter- the sauce was silky the kind that clings to the fish without drowning it. Hubs loved his chicken parm- but as a non-meat eater myself, I did notice the chicken looked pounded paper-thin- hubs enjoyed it though. Service is great- but the cocktails? Go for wine instead.

    Always an exceptional experience at FUMO. Impeccable service, the food is fire, and the music curates the perfect vibe. The food is just dang good. Quality always. The rice balls were delicious and better than mozzz sticks. Steak frites superiority sooo good

    Came for the lunch special...stayed for the vibe! I ordered the spaghetti vongole and it was incredible! Service was pleasant and speedy. The music was the perfect volume and perfect selection; think old school r&b (Monica and Guniwine)...I was body rolling and chewing throughout my meal. I will absolutely be back...soon!

    There hasn't been a Fumo I met that wasnt good. This has become my favorite restaurant establishment. The delicious Italian food, the great service, subtle atmosphere and reasonably priced. Also shoutout to the banging playlist- they playing 90s/early 2000s RnB hits. The food did not disappoint. Went with the margherita pizza and steak & fries. Perfectly cooked and speedy service. Their brick oven pizza is so light and leaves limited guilt. On Sunday they also have an amazing 12 dollar pasta special. The only headache was looking for someone to get my bill. Happy Fumo is expanding to various neighborhoods.

    What a great Italian spot in Chelsea!! Thankfully we got here on a day it wasn't too crowded and got the perfect corner booth seats. We started off with the fried mozz which was fried to perfection, the outside being so crispy and the cheese in the inside having the perfect texture and cheese pulls lol. For the mains we got pesto (vegan) & the rigatoni with chopped sausage. Both were great with plenty of flavor, not to mention the good portion sizes.

    Such a great lunch deal here! $12 for pasta Monday through Friday 12-4pm I believe. I stopped by one Friday for lunch and tried the vegan pesto pasta. So fresh and delicious! Topped it off with some parmesan cheese too. Complimentary bread & olive oil is great too! Staff was great! Very friendly and attentive. The portion size was generous. I had a little leftover to take along with me. A great spot for groups and a date night. I'll be back soon Fumo!

    Baked Ziti

    I was walking around Chelsea when I saw a sign for $12 pasta night (on Sundays and Mondays after 4pm) and I had to try it. The food was so delicious. The first night I tried the baked ziti and it was so good. It also was enormous so I took half home. The price was so Gigi's that I indulged in a glass of red wine. The service was amazing. The waiters were attentive, accommodating, and friendly.The food arrived quickly and was hot right out of the oven (or off the stove). The room is small and cost and reminded me of the small restaurants that I tried in Italy. The atmosphere was exciting with most of the tables filled but the sound of conversations was not overwhelming. The tables were close together but not so close that you felt like you were sitting in the lap of the person next to you. I went back the next night and had the penne vodka. So good!

    Branzino
    Franny A.

    What a pleasurable experience! The most NY Italian menu that's more than a pizza/ pasta bar. Such a well thought out menu & execution. Ate: Baked clams 3 Cauliflower bread Arugula salad Branzino with spinach Penn with mushrooms Total: $106 with cash discount The baked clams were incredible and the idea of cauliflower bread was great & well executed. Salad was very good as was branzino and the mushroom penne was so rich & flavorfu. Unpretentious and a fair price point. This Chelsea girl loved it.

    Great food and atmosphere. Can't beat the $12 past deal on Sunday/Monday. Would definitely recommend!

    I wouldn't recommend this place for anyone with allergies. I specifically told them I was allergic to garlic and onions and my dish came with huge pieces of onion. Aside from that, this restaurant was fine - nothing groundbreaking.

Check-in was quick and easy, and even though it was a full house for a Saturday night, we were still able to find seats without an issue. The space was definitely lively and a bit crowded, but there was still enough room to move around comfortably. Our bartender was really sweet and made great drinks , the cranberry vodka and Long Island were both spot on. We didn't pay extra for the additional glasses to smash, but the six cups included were enough to make the experience fun and satisfying for a casual night. I can see why people would want to buy a full bucket though as it definitely adds to the excitement. The crowd was respectful, and the bathrooms were decently clean, which is always a plus. Overall, a great spot for an stress-relieving, spontaneous night out!

Can't complain. They have four booths in the back maybe it was three. I did notice one of the hanging lights was from an 80s pizza hut joint. Letting you know now the paper towels for your face at the table felt like jail toliet paper, very rough. The bar doesn't have bar stools with backs!

    This place has so much potential it's honestly a little offensive that it's not living up to it…read more Like... you walk in and you feel like something should be happening. The energy is right there, hovering, but it never actually lands. It's giving "almost iconic" but not quite--like a party that never fully starts. And that's what gets me. Because this bar could EASILY be that spot. The kind people plan their week around. Where are the themed nights? Where's the drama? The chaos? Give me a reason to come back on a random Wednesday. Do a city-event tie-in, a holiday takeover, literally anything that makes it feel alive instead of just... existing. Because right now it feels like a missed opportunity wearing a cute outfit. BUT--let's talk about the one thing they absolutely did not fumble: the view. The VIEW??? Insane. Genuinely stunning. The kind of view that makes you pause mid-sentence and remember you're in New York and not just spiraling in your own life choices. It's carrying the entire experience on its back, respectfully. So yeah. I'd come back... but mostly for the view and the potential. If they ever decide to actually do something with this space? It could be dangerous (in a good way). Until then, it's vibes... just not fully realized ones.

The view is gorgeous and sweeping. The service is attentive and professional. The drinks are sophisticated. I ended up here because I saw a video about their gin and tonic. Sounds simple, but it's one of my favorite drinks, and I'm always looking for someone who can do it well. I ordered their "dear G&T" and it was a fruity, complex riff on my old favorite. I also got the foreign forage, "a bourbon smash with a mint zing." It was also a delicious take on a classic. They have several types of cocktails, all broken down by spirit and flavor profile. They also offer a lot of spirits made in New York State. They have cocktails with earthy notes, fruity notes, fancy martinis, and a section boasting limited edition and special spirits, if you're "feeling fancy" and wanna cough up 35 bucks instead of 20 or 25! They have a bar snacks menu (sliders, nuts, and the like). I had their thick cut fries and they were light, seasoned, and tasty. I couldn't stop eating them. Midtown or not, I highly recommend this spot, which also has a couple other locations, including Gramercy.
