    Margherita Pizza with mushrooms
    Rachel G.

    We've walked by Gnocco so many times and decided to try it for weekend brunch. They have a nice covered and heated back patio which was dog friendly. The menu is gigantic, with everything from pizzas, pastas, sandwiches to juices. Plus there's a boozy brunch menu if that's your thing. We decided to split a margherita pizza and the cheeseburger. The pizza was thin and crispy, with a well balanced sauce. The burger could have used some toppings, as it only has cheese on it. Otherwise it was pretty good. Gnocco is a good option if you're in the neighborhood. Will be back for the happy hour!

    Now around for a quarter century, Gnocco is now an LES classic. Gnocco is a terrific local Italian restaurant. The food, cocktails, service and atmosphere are all great. Whether for Saturday night or a lazy midweek dinner, Gnocco is a good choice b

    Tiramisu
    Akiko I.

    The food was good, but the service was even better. We came in without a reservation and were seated inside behind a loud table on a Friday night. There were two waiters who came by to take our order, and while we were waiting the second came by again to take sure we were okay because we hadn't ordered drinks. I was getting irritated by the large group as they were drunk and loud (I'm Japanese so more sensitive to sound than the usual American) and I told the waiter who seated who was sympathetic but couldn't reseat us. The food came which made things better (and the group left thank God). The fusilli picanti was full of flavor, the endive salad hit the spot, but the asparagus was way too salty. My partner wanted the tiramosu, which was just right: not too sweet. Bring cash: there's a bit of a discount if you do.

    Uova Benedettine Brunch

    The food at Gnocco was alright. We had bottomless brunch, pizza, and what thought was their version of eggs benedict. The food was a little cold, and the eggs didn't have hollandaise sauce, making it quite dry. The pizza was mediocre. The atmosphere and ambiance were very pretty. They have a cute backyard garden seating area, but we opted to sit inside because it was extremely humid. The service was decent. Our waitress was a bit all over the place. It was an okay place to get a quick bite.

    Passion fruit frozen margarita

    I honestly loved the super thin style of pizza. The sauce felt very fresh and the crust was kinda chewy and crunchy. I loved the sauce even though I've heard complaints about it not being flavorful enough. To me, it was a perfect fresh sauce that made the pizza very light. What stole the show though is their tartufata pizza. If you love mushroom and truffle pizzas, you HAVE TO TRY the tartufata. I could not get enough of it. The truffle flavor was just right and not too overwhelming. Also it helped that I just like how thin their pizzas are! The passion fruit frozen marg was SO YUMMY and honestly kinda strong. I literally finished mine in 2 sips because it was absolutely delicious. Our servers were super kind as well and the place is nice, kinda rustic!

    Relaxing in the indoor outdoor courtyard.

    We went here after my son had swimming lessons since he was very hungry. I looked up places in the area and Gnocco hit my feed. We walked here and asked to sit in the back indoor outdoor courtyard area, which is very beautiful. The music they played added to the atmosphere of the place. My son had a margarita pizza to himself and devoured it. The sauce was on point and flavorful, and the end crust was perfectly cooked and thin. The middle, however, was a little soggy. I ordered the burrata with black truffle. The bread was tasty with the burrata and black truffle. I really took advantage of their bottomless brunch for 1.5 hrs;) I got to try their margarita, white sangria, red sangria, and bloody mary. My favorites were the standard margarita and the white sangria, which had a peach taste to it. The server was attentive, always asking if we wanted more drinks and clearing away spent items. The waiter gave thumbs up when people said they were enjoying their meal. We did not feel rushed and enjoyed our time here.

    Great brunch spot!! Came here for birthday brunch with my friends, there were about 10 of us. The birthday girl made a reservation in advance and was able to change the number of people last minute. The seating in the indoor patio is so pretty with a garden vibe feeling to it. We did the $43 brunch deal which is a brunch course with bottomless (drink of your choice from the menu) for 90 minutes. Our waiter was great, she kept coming over to refill our drinks-even when they weren't completely done :) she was also super friendly! The food was nice for the deal, I got the omelette that is an option with the brunch deal and had a great amount of fries, salad, and egg! My friends also loved their pastas and vegan options. Overall I would definitely come back for a brunch event!!

    Rigatoni

    Honestly, I thought the food was just okay, but the service and the ambience took the trophy. My friend and I came to work as part of their system where they open up their tables for people to come in, eat, and do work. They essentially transform into that classic cafe where you do work but instead it's a restaurant where you do work. There's free wifi, outlets, plenty of seating, and it's just total and complete vibes. My friend and I came in at the exact time they opened the space and we stayed until 5pm. I thought maybe they'd kick us out at some point-- nope. We stayed all that time and they were so kind in coming by to offer us more drinks/food, being okay with it if we didn't want any at that time (we honestly ended up buying more solely because we wanted to give them the business after how long we'd been there). We worked in the "outdoor" space (it's actually indoor but they let light in), which has plenty of lighting as well as outlets. I ordered a lemonade, mochaccino, freshly squeezed juice (pineapple, orange, strawberry), and the rigatoni pasta dish. The pasta was super al dente and had good flavor, albeit a little bit salty. I think the juice was my winner for today. When they said fresh, they mean FRESH. The pulp from the orange was still in there, and I could taste some of the strawberry seeds as well. While I was expecting a smoothie-esque drink, it was definitely a juice. I felt like I could taste each of the fruits that were in there which was a WIN. I want to gatekeep this so badly because this studying space is genuinely incredible, but I wish them the world and more people need to know about it. I'll 100% be back to get more work done!

    Gnocchi Al Pomodoro
    Naela N.

    Started off with a pumpkin espresso martini and it was the perfect fall cocktail. The gnocchi was made so well and it was a good portion. Lastly we got the tiramisu which was also so good. It wasn't too heavy of a dessert. The ambiance of the place was great and the service was great even though it was busy.

    Tartufata Pizza

    Came here for pizza for lunch last summer and it was very lively inside with big groups. I love truffle and their pizza was good although it was on the thinner side. I would want to come back to try their bottomless brunch next time

    Garden dining area
    Victoria S.

    Made a reservation 2 months in advance for New York City Marathon weekend. We wanted a place to carb-load that had gluten-free and vegan menu items. As the dinner date approached, we were able to change the party # seamlessly. Our table was in the garden area in the back. The space was so very homey, complete with plants and Xmas lights. The menu (on a tablet) had something for everyone. Instead of just 1-2 gluten free and vegan options each, they had complete menus for these parameters. The bread that came with the meal was warm and crusty. I had the fusilli with eggplant. The dish was in a well- seasoned tomato sauce with eggplant chunks, green peppers and fresh cheese. Very satisfying without being heavy. Everyone else also enjoyed their food. Could not have asked for a lovelier meal on Marathon eve.

    Pasta
    Angelica O.

    Excellent food and excellent service. Leon provided great service! Calamari was best I have had in a while! Steak was delicious! Wish steak dish had a little something extra than just lettuce, maybe some veggies. Pasta was good, but needed something else for the price. Dessert was delicious as well. The garden sitting area was very beautiful! 4 stars, because menu needs a redoing, electronic ipads and not easy to navigate, and I think they need to go to a QRcode system.

    Bucatini Amatriciana
    Sabrina M.

    This place is so yummy. I really believe the reviews don't do it justice. The service is great. They are so sweet and understanding. They let us do the brunch menu and order from happy hour as well on a sunday. Cute greenhouse/intimate vibe. The pizza was delicious, so was the bucatini and Gnocco, but the rice balls WON! Cheesy and delicious. Drinks also good. Price for brunch $43 and they did split payment.

    See No Evil Pizza

    4.5(134 reviews)
    2.4 miTheater District, Midtown West

    I had such a fun experience at See No Evil Pizza. The pizza flavors were incredibly inventive…read more(definitely not your standard slice) and everything we tried felt thoughtfully put together. The arancini was a standout: perfectly crisp on the outside, creamy inside, and served with a rich, delicious sauce that tied it all together. We ended on the tiramisu, which was absolutely worth saving room. It was light, flavorful, and a perfect finish to the meal. What really elevated the experience, though, was the staff. Everyone was genuinely kind and helpful--especially notable for New York--and it made the whole evening feel relaxed and welcoming. A small heads-up: it's a bit tricky to find, so give yourself extra time. That said, the hidden, underground subway setting is part of the charm and makes the whole experience feel unique. I'd love to see more restaurants creatively use these kinds of spaces in the future.

    Tucked away in the most unexpected spot, See No Evil is truly one of those rare hidden gems you…read morealmost don't want to tell people about, but absolutely should. It is located right in the hallway of a subway entrance, next to a bar and across from a coffee shop, and it somehow manages to feel like a cozy, sit-down restaurant right in the middle of NYC. Don't let the odd location fool you, the food here is outstanding. The Neapolitan and Sicilian-style pizzas are both exceptional, with rich, well-balanced flavors and perfectly executed crusts. Every bite tastes high quality. Also, don't skip the house-made lemonade! The experience is even better because of the incredibly friendly and attentive staff. They were all so kind to so many people. From offering to keep leftovers in the fridge until a customer was done at their broadway show, to offering a scone to a young child while he and his father waited for their pizza to be done, it was more than just flipping a table and onto the next tip, it was humanity at its best. Be sure to give See No Evil Pizza a try. You certainly will want to come back again for more.
