    Penne a la vodka (top), Chicken Parmigiana (bottom)
    Lauren P.

    So good that I was here twice in one week! Food, drinks, ambiance are all 10/10. Their cocktails are some of the best I've had--highly recommend their pomegranate martini and blush punch. For food, I love anything that has their vodka sauce (gnocchi vodka/penne alla vodka). The gnocchi was perfectly dense and soft at the same time and the penne was cooked perfectly. I would recommend adding their breaded chicken on top! Their chicken parm is cooked beautifully and I didn't feel disgustingly full and bloated after a decent amount of carbs and fried/breaded food. This spot is small but the ambiance is *it*. There is an open kitchen so you can watch the chef prepare everything--pretty cool! Good date night spot or for smaller groups. I also would recommend making a reservation to ensure that you can grab a seat where you want (dining room or outside). Service can take a little longer at times but it is so worth the wait!

    Fettucine Al Fredo

    Had a wonderful dinner with my family of 4 at Oregano to celebrate Father's Day this year! It was our first time dining there. We made a same day reservation and were seated immediately as we walked in. The space is tiny. We went around 6:30 and it was very dark inside/dim lighting, but cute. The walls covered in shelving storage holding up extra bottles of wine, champagnes through one whole side of the wall - looks nice. I noticed that our host, was also our server and bartender. He was moving fast throughout the space and was very kind and attentive to our table. We all enjoyed our meals: for the most part all ordered a pasta dish that we enjoyed. My daughter, who is 10, ordered a pizza she didn't enjoy and had a few complaints: there's no children's menu options and the round tables together is weird and uncomfortable, too many gaps in btwn. Feedback: add a children's menu for simple option like meatballs, chicken cutlet, small sized pasta dish

    Black Fettucine With Lobster
    Giselle B.

    Such an amazing experience! My friend and i were able to snag a table around 9:30 (shoutout to the hostess forreal!!) the ambiance is so cute! Perfect for friends or dates. The music wasn't too loud and the service was impeccable. Now onto the drinks and the food: 100% fantastic! My friend had the prosciutto pizza and i had the fettuccine alla vodka with lobster. Fresh homemade pasta. Lobster pieces were huge. My friend's pizza was sensational- perfectly doughy without being burnt and the sauce was so good! If i didn't eat before dinner, i would've eaten more dishes! I cannot wait to come back! You will not be disappointed.

    10/10 food! Portions could've been bigger but still food imo! Service was 10/10 as well! Very romantic kind of setting.

    Gnocchi vodka
    Katie F.

    This place was *chef's kiss* amazing! We ordered a bottle of the Chianti with the burrata appetizer, gnocchi vodka and Williamsburg pizza. My favorite was the gnocchi, I could literally take a bath in that sauce. You could also tell the gnocchi was made fresh, it was like biting into a pillow. Also enjoyed the cozy feel of this place + our waiter was great. Would definitely recommend!

    Penne a la vodka
    Arianne M.

    I came here Tuesday evening after I spent the day at Bathhouse spa. It was a couple blocks away. The restaurant was small but really nice inside. I sat by the window that was open so there was a beautiful breeze. The server immediately came over and greeted me. He was very friendly and attentive. I ordered garlic bread and penne a la vodka. The food was really 11/10. Wow! Every bite, I couldn't believe how good it was. I didn't have any room for dessert but I can only imagine. I will definitely be coming back. This is my new spot! I'm in love!!!!

    Spaghetti Bolognese
    Eric M.

    10/10 would recommend to anyone, small but cute spot and so many things to look at. The food was amazing and glad I found this spot. I would drive back 4 hours again to have that chicken parm! Server was courteous and friendly as well!

    Radiatore alla vodka brutale
    Jessica C.

    Cute little spot with great italian food. The interior has warm lighting, and a partially open kitchen where you can see the pizza oven and chef making pasta. There are mugshots of famous celebrities on the wall, and its a nice moody vibe. The space is a little small, but not a big issue. They have a great menu with tons of options. The cavatelli with sausage and broccolli rabe was amazing, and so savory. The vodka brutale pasta was creamy and had a nice kick of spice. I wish they had bread on the side. The cabernet sauvignon was also really good, not super dry. Overall would definitely come back

    Do they take reservations?

    Call ahead and let them know you are coming. Longs you're there a little ahead of the time you specify with your party you should be fine. It's kind of like a "loose" reservation policy.

The music is at a low enough volume that you can hear your conversations, it doesn't get too crowded so you can spread out, even if you're in a large group. Downstairs, it's a lot tighter, with a DJ, dance floor, lounge seating area, and a much more packed and busy atmosphere on the weekends. I like ping ponging between both vibes when I'm with friends. Admittedly I've found the music both times to be too experimental for me. Confessing that makes me feel like an old person shaking my fist or at least shaking my head, misunderstanding what makes the youth tick. But I had no trouble twirling around the dance floor to this weird experimental music after throwing back a few tequila sodas upstairs. A few times while here my friends have split up into the group that wants to go downstairs to dance and the group that wants to stay upstairs and chill. It's relatively easy to navigate between both vibes, which I enjoy about this spot very much.

When we saw "Water Tower" on the elevator we decided to press it. SO GLAD WE DID. We landed at the Water Tower and walked into a fairly empty space decorated with art all the way to the ceiling, filled with natural light coming in and the views of the skyline were out of this world. We had to try their drinks of course to enjoy with the incredible view. Though the drinks are $21 and served in a plastic cup that evening, I was NOT expecting my drink to be this insanely delicious. I ordered the inferno Paloma which they infuse themselves with- and it was true perfection. By the way, each bar has their own menu which is pretty awesome and makes it even more fun. Also, Axel is the most incredible bartender and we absolutely loved his creations. Later that night we ordered a custom mandarin margarita, with a spicy twist, and WOW. He's truly talented and absolutely made us some awesome drinks that we can't stop talking about. Sunset with a view and a spicy mezcal drink? Yes and YES. We had this place all to ourselves and can't wait to be back. Friday nights they have DJ nights and you can also book the Water Tower for your own private events which is pretty cool!

For apps, we got the curry crab gyoza which was a very small portion (6/10) and the roasted mushroom truffle flatbread which was the highlight of the meal (8.5/10). For mains, we tried the biang biang Rasta noodles with salmon (6/10) and the sofrino roasted chicken (5/10). Both were a bit underwhelming. I've heard their drinks are great but we didn't try any. Food-wise, I was a little disappointed, but still had a great time catching up with friends.

The Sweet Potato Beignets with hot honey & parmesan were definitely interesting--sweet, savory, and a bit unexpected. Not my favorite item of the night, but still worth trying if you like unique flavor combos. The BK Sliders (3 pc) were solid: thick applewood smoked bacon, American cheese, Russian dressing, and pickle on mini brioche buns. Simple, satisfying, and nicely done. The real standout though was the Calamari with shichimi pepper, jalapeño, lime zest, and herbal dipping sauce--absolutely amazing. Crispy, flavorful, and the seasoning had just the right kick. Easily the best dish we ordered. Service was friendly and the atmosphere made it easy to linger. Overall a great experience, and I'd definitely come back--especially for that calamari and another hot toddy.

I've never ate here, but I recommend grabbing drinks during the summer months when they open the canopy. It's a nice rooftop feel.

It is too bad Yelp doesn't allow half stars as I would honestly put this one at a 3.5 and am rounding up. While the quality of the elevated seafood bites is immaculate, they are just that: a bite or two of food, for an elevated price considering the amount of food you get. After spending $76 a person, we were still hungry, whereas that amount would have been enough to feed two average women at another good restaurant. But if you go with an expense account or trust fund baby, definitely get the scallops and the yellowtail pastrami because those two items will blow your mind. Our waitress pointed these two out to us and we're grateful for her guidance because it was spot on. Paying for bread at a Solomonov joint is odd. No dessert menu is odder. Wheelchair access details: The bar is on a terrace. The accessible entrance is through the Hoxton hotel. A staff member will take you through the k'far kitchen and up via a service elevator. No barriers once you are upstairs and plenty of accessible outdoor and indoor/outdoor options, including a small length of wheelchair height bar. A perfectly functional though unexciting wheelchair accessible restroom is available.
