If a couple wanted "their" little Italian restaurant, that not a lot of people know about, with fresh food and friendly service, this could be it. We went for the Happy Hour specials, the grilled artichoke and fried shrimp and calamari, and they were great. Had some fish "crudo" which was nice and tangy, a radicchio salad, and a nice helping of pasta. Everything tasted really fresh, and the staff was very pleasant. One little touch I liked was that they have real flowers in the vases on the tables. People expect them to be fake, but they are not. Like everything we tasted, the flowers were genuine and of high quality. read more

I had a great time at Misirizzi. They have a good happy hour and outdoor seating for when the weather is nice. The sign said the happy hour was only valid at the bar, but the waitress let us get HH prices at our outdoor table. Their classic drinks are solid, Hugo spritz and Aperol spritz were perfect and the HH price was $8. We ordered the crudo, carbonara, and bolognese. They have a gluten free pasta option which we got. Overall, the food and drinks were very good. I would love to go again and try more of the menu. read more

Planned a team dinner here (15 people) and it went so well - everyone loved the vibe and food! It was easy to work with the team. We had a few emails back and forth on choosing the menu and they had helpful suggestions. We booked the entire back room which was nice and intimate. read more

Had a great experience in the private dining area at a birthday dinner recently. The guest of honor reserved the basement room (have to go down stairs on the side of restaurant to reach the space). The room exactly fit 2-3 long tables in an L formation (probably about 30-35 people) with just enough room for waiters to walk to perimeter. The room had romantic lighting, creating a sophisticated and intimate vibe. They served a multi-course family style meal, walked around with wine and took cocktail orders as desired. Overall, the food was quite good despite being made in large batches. It was fun to be able to taste multiple pastas and a variety of their appetizers (artichokes, calamari, etc). I was quite impressed with the service despite such a big group and I will be back for a regular (non-private party) dinner at this restaurant in the future! read more

Enjoyed an early Saturday dinner with friends before a performance at The Public Theater. So glad we chose this place. The outside of the restaurant does not give it justice as some might only see a bar and a few tables. They have an entire dining area in the back. The staff was very welcoming and eager to share their specials, if which we select two. Everything was delicious and satisfying, there wasn't one "miss" here. We started with the Butternut Squash soup, Fritto Misto with a mayo we couldn't get enough of, and the Brussel Sprouts with tasty crispy prosciutto. Then our party enjoyed their Risotto Giallo, steak frites, the Gnocchi and the Branzino Cartoccio special. All dishes arrived hot and flavorful. Our friends also loved their cocktails. The funnest dessert I've ever seen was the deconstructed Cannoli Riccota, my friend was like a kid again! I loved their Piccola Pasticceria, a triple selection of yummy sweets. Definitely consider for your next pre-show dining experience. read more

This is one Italian restaurant I haven't heard about on any NYC restaurant lists... and not sure why!! The food and vibes are fantastic.

Forgot to take pics of our main dishes but what a lovely restaurant! The pastas were delicious! I highly recommend the lasagna and the linguine al Nero di seppia. The fritto misto to start was yummy and you really can't go wrong with burrata but next time I'll get it with the prosciutto that you can add on, it needed the salty element. My husband got the steak and said it was just okay for him so I would say stick with the delicious pastas. The place is really cute! On the smaller side so def get a resy. Service was great! read more

Where do I begin? This restaurant is calming. I have passed by this place for several years and I didn't realize it was there. Once I walked in with a friend, I was taken in by the ambiance and the beauty of the bar. I had the pleasure of being in Gloria's section and presence. I adore her and I come back for her. Her service was excellent. Now, let's get into the food and drinks. I wanted to go to heaven after this lasagna. I think and dream about this dish all the time now. It's perfectly made with the right size and portion. You feel satisfied from head to toe. They have a great drink selection to pair along with the food from cocktails to wine. I've tried other dishes, and I'm amazed at the quality & freshness. I've been spoiled by this place. Thank God. read more

Cozy spot with a small menu, so you know they specialize in what they serve. The pasta was perfectly cooked al dente. We had the black linguine, pappardelle, and branzino. I would recommend the pappardelle if you like creamy pasta. The branzino was cooked and seasoned well. -1 star as the calamari on the black linguine was mushy and a little fishy tasting but the pappardelle and brazino more than made up for that. Our server was kind and attentive. Would return. read more

This place is very charming. Perfect for a date night. It's a narrow space. You have the front bar area with a few tables then walk towards the back for the larger dining area where there's a fake fireplace burning. We started with the crostini trio - ricotta w/ pears and honey, fried shrimp and pesto, and tomatoes and cheese (forget the type). The crostini offerings change daily. Then we had the lasagna della nonna and tagliatelle bolognese. Both dishes were good; we cleaned our plates! Their pasta offerings are at nice price point ($22-$28). The two employees working were both very nice and attentive. It was an overall nice dining experience! read more

Misirizzi is where it's at. The drinks are so tasty and strong, the service is fabulous and the place itself is so cute. My girlfriends and I came in to catch up and have dinner before a night out. I had a cosmo, my one friend had a Moscow mule and one had a drink off the drink menu. We ordered two of the crispy artichokes and it was divine. They were perfectly crispy! And the pesto sauce that came with it... I could eat that for days. So creamy and paired so nicely with the dish. I ordered the bolognese which was so great. The pasta was so fresh and delicious and the sauce was perfect. It wasn't too heavy and was very filling. Both of my friends had the carbonara and loved it. Thank you to the owner, Alessandro, for the hospitality and for having us! Can't wait to come back! read more

Super cute and cozy little Italian place! The service and vibe is amazing-- great for a first date or a cute little date night. We ordered the burrata, carbonara, and gnocchi. Burrata was great. The pasta dishes were so-so. I thought that the carbonara was good but lacked some sauce and the gnocchi was a bit lackluster-- I wished it had more of a kick in the tomato sauce. read more

I went to this Italian Restaurant in downtown Manhattan and the food weren't that good as I expect them to be. We had the Fritto di Calamari e Gamberi and the Tris di Crostini as appetizer. Then I had the Gnocchi del Giorno for the main course. The Calamari were dry and the Gnocchi was overcooked. We had as well the Gelato for dessert and not good and creamy as I expected. For the drinks, the Aperol Spritz was good though. This place I should say good just for Aperitivo and not for dining. The Ambiance and service is pretty good though. I will not recommend this place to friends for dining, maybe I will only just for Aperitivo. I hope the management may read this comments and may implement some improvements. read more

Loved this little spot. We came in on a Tuesday night and it wasn't too crowded which made for a nice dinner! It's a pretty small place, so I'd recommend reservations if you are able to make one. We got wine and an espresso martini. For food, we got the meatballs and the carbonara. All of their pastas looked amazing! The meatballs were so tasty. And I loved the pasta shape for the carbonara. Great service as well! read more

Good food and friendly staff! We had to ask for the bread after seeing other tables getting it, though. My friend and I shared the fried artichokes which were nice and crispy. The pasta was cooked perfectly but was lacking that little extra bit to make it a 5 star review. My friend got the malfadine carbonara (7/10 needed more pepper or something?) and I ordered the squid ink pasta (8/10). Then we ordered the tiramisu and the cannoli for dessert! read more

This was a very cute place. We got there early for our reservation and were seated in the front. There were only two of us so we were at a small table and another pair of two sat at the table next to us. These tables were very close, only about 2 feet apart so there was not a lot of space and at times you could overhear the other person's conversation. As far as the food, the calamari as an appetizer was great. The entrée carbonara was so delicious and I would definitely recommend trying this dish. read more

This is a stunning little Italian gem that makes you feel like you really are dining somewhere in Italy. At first glance it looks like a small restaurant with some outdoor seating and at the bar, but venture in and you'll see the dimly lit seating inside that is beautiful. I had no idea they have private dining spaces too. We attended a private party held downstairs in a separate part of the restaurant. You head down some stairs which are outside and enter an intimate dining set up. This wine cellar dining set up was just gorgeous! A mix of romantic yet comfortable for groups. The wine pairings were great with the all vegetarian meal of pastas (gnocchi), grilled eggplant, salads, and mini desserts we had. Staff was attentive and I would highly recommend coming here for a meal. read more

Great little Italian spot in Noho area of Manhattan. I've walked by this place many times and it looked good. Also saw a ton of positive reviews. I will say - every time I walked by and even when I went - no one was there. I went on a Friday night and there were probably 6 people eating (including the two of us). Hopefully this place lasts long! Decent sized restaurant. Some tables outside, and then a front and rear area inside. Staff was helpful but not the nicest. Romantic type of restaurant, but it lost some charm given no one was there. They also sat us directly next to one of the only two other tables there (would've liked more space). Food and drinks were excellent. We ordered the following: Carciofi - amazing crispy artichokes Linguine - fresh, we'll prepared black linguine with fresh fish Strozzapreti Bolognese - very meaty. Would've liked a little bit of a thinner bolognese sauce. Good though Branzino - two filets with asparagus. Great. Would've liked more asparagus Affogato - great tasting vanilla ice cream, but the espresso was only OK Mezcalito - great Negroni Figo - great Would be a good place to have a nice quiet meal. Good for a group last minute probably read more

Amazing food and service. This food taste like I was literally in Italy and reminded me of my trip from the year previous. This place is so cozy and cute and again cannot recommend the food enough.

Visited Misirizzi on a Thursday evening and it was fairly busy. We had a reservation & were seated quickly upon arrival. We tried the Carciofi (crispy artichoke) for the appetizer and it was absolutely delicious. We then ordered the Malfadjne and Radiatori pastas -- both were good, but nothing special. We finished off the meal with the Torta Dellla Nonna for dessert, which was light and tasty! The main reason we dock a star for this place is because of the service. From the get go it felt like we were extremely rushed to order, and then after ordering, were not paid attention to. Aside from the service, the restaurant was great in terms of food, price, location, and overall ambiance. read more

Came to Misirizzi last night with a friend. Would rate my overall experience as average and wouldn't come back in the future Food 3/5: food is pretty decent but I think it's about similar quality to what an average place in little Italy would be: Crispy artichokes 2/5: I know it's a popular dish here but I was underwhelmed / have had better elsewhere. The artichoke wasn't crispy enough and not enough flavor Butternut squash pasta 3/5: fine but nothing stuck out Zucchini parm 4/5: solid dish with sliced zuchini in layers of cheese / sauce. The cheese was maybe a bit overdone but the dish was cooked well and had great flavoring + texture Service / ambience 2 /5: Misirizzi is a very small restaurant, which has a cozy charm. However at least the table we were seated at really didn't have enough space. 1) I was pushed up against a pole for the night 2) 2 dishes + wine just barely fits on the table + you have to be careful 3) we were so close to the next table that it was hard to focus on our own conversation over theirs. Service was also lacking for a restaurant at this price point. 1) Getting attention was difficult 2) when they were filling our wine glass they would consistently drop wine on my utensils, plate, and table. read more

Valentine's Day at Misirizzi was a success! Not quite sure how I found Misirizzi, but I am sure glad I did. I booked my Valentine's Day reservation at Misirizzi about a month in advance and was delighted to find out that they had a wine cellar that guests could dine in. We arrived right on time for our reservation and were sat immediately. It was a bit drafty in the cellar at first, however, the manager was turning on space heaters to keep the place warm. My husband and I put in a drink order with our server and also placed our food order shortly after that. Here is what we had: My husband had the following: 1. Burrata - he said burrata was very creamy and the prosciutto was cut very think just like he likes it. 2. Homemade strozzapreti - he said the pasta was a bit gummy, but the sauce was really good. 3. She'll steak - good but nothing to write home about. Here is my order: 1. Zucchini soup - very tasty and full of flavor. 2. Butternut squash cappellacci - the sauce was simply delightful. 3. Zucchini parmigiana- out of this world good! Tasted similar to eggplant parmigiana. For dessert: 1. Torta della nonna - not our favorite but good 2. Cannolis - the cannolis were some of the best that we ever had and I would go back simply for them. All of the above was included on their prefix menu which was only $80 dollars per person. I would 100% come back to Misirizzi and try their regular menu. Thanks for a lovely Valentine's Day dinner! read more

I came here because I heard good things about the carbonara, but was honestly not super impressed.

Food: 10/10 The crispy artichoke blew me away, and the cheese board was quite delightful as well. Ordered the squid ink linguine and it was filled with seafood, with quite a nice al dente texture, slightly too chewy for me but good nonetheless. The cocktails were amazing as well, a huge fan of Miss Prizzi, as it wasn't too sweet but very refreshing. Interior: 10/10 Super cute and intimate setting with warm ambient lighting. Great place for a cozy dinner and even a birthday party with 10 of us. Elegant yet minimal. Service: 10/10 Really appreciate how accomodating our waiter was, as we arrived late. Because it was a big party, our dishes took a while, but they were very helpful with cutting our cake and making sure we were enjoying ourselves. read more

One of my favorite places in the area with an unbeatable happy hour special. It has a small family vibe and easily one of the better Italian places in the area. Here's what you need to know: 1. Happy hour special is one of the best out there. $9 for a spritz? SIGN ME UP. 2. Pastas are great and the portion sizes are good. 3. Reservations recommended. 4. There's covered outdoor seating and open air indoor seating when the weather is agreeable. 5. Staff is so wonderful and friendly. One of the best places you can go in this area. I would skip Bar Primi across the street and go to something more homegrown if you can. read more

Really have no complaints. Misirizzi is tasty, unpretentious, and reasonably priced! It was very easy to get a reservation the day of. There are loads of Italian restaurants in NYC that are overpriced and almost impossible to get a reservation unless you jump at them the first chance they open. I'm happy to say Misirizzi is not this type of restaurant. My partner and I very much enjoyed the burrata and prosciutto (but to be honest how could you go wrong with that?). We shared the carbonara mafaldine and the squid ink tomato sauce seafood pasta. Both hit the spot! It was hard to pick a favorite, honestly I couldn't. I would say the portions are not huge, but with an appetizer and some wine it was definitely enough to satisfy. I would happily return! read more
