rigatoni bolognese
Chloe L.

Came for restaurant week! $45 pre fixe menu for an appetizer, entree and dessert for dinner. Service was a bit iffy, they mixed up our orders a couple times and didn't replace everyone's cutlery. For food- - Heirloom tomato and burrata: huge fan of this. Burrata is so creamy and huge portions for this. - Rigatoni bolognese: unfortunately wasn't a big fan of this. Was a bit bland and didn't taste the seafood presence at all. Would recommend the paccheri over this. - Cannoli: was pretty decent but I have had better. Was not particularly interesting but not bad! Ambiance is very nice, slightly dark and intimate but loud inside. Good for a date but definitely matters what you order!

We had a lovely experience with our special lunch at this place. The chef even came to visit our table. We had a lot of healthy vegetable oriented dishes and a well made branzino. Plus tiramisu, a special dessert and home made ice cream. They make their own pasta and sauces. They have a shop next door you can purchase from olive oil to home made pasta and even a coffee shop with delicious pastries and coffee.

I came here for Restaurant Week because we heard they had good bread and gluten-free options. Both ended up being true. I really enjoyed my gluten-free salmon appetizer. For my main course, I had to make a few modifications to make the pasta both gluten-free and pescatarian. I ended up with the cheesiest carbonara-style pasta I have ever had. I bet the unmodified dish is great as well. I loved the decor, and our waiter Behrouz was so nice and accommodating. He really tried to help make the experience work for me. I was initially ready to give a harsher review because when I asked for modifications, someone who may have been the owner or manager seemed a little rough with our waiter. We had a multilingual person at the table, so we could understand more of what was happening, and I honestly started to feel like a bother. That said, they ultimately said it was okay, and we were fine. The challenge was that there were not really protein-focused options that worked for someone who is both gluten-free and pescatarian. I know my life is rough. The reason I am giving a fair review is because while we were there, the staff had their meal family-style between lunch and dinner service, and I actually enjoyed seeing that. It made me feel like maybe the earlier moment was just the heat of service and not the overall culture. The space also has a more informal coffee shop and bakery feel in one section, plus a setup where they sell fresh-made pasta. Overall, I would give it a 7/10 and would consider coming back.

Came here for lunch yesterday . Really outstanding . Service and quality were impeccable. My server was Jackie and she was super nice and accommodating. I had the farro salad with grilled chicken . It was delicious and fresh. The panna cotta was next level. It a city where these are tins of places to eat; this place pays attention to the small details. Quality of the food was fresh and the flavors al blended together nicely. The playlist was perfect for a Saturday... Curtis Mayfield, sly and the family Stone, Billy Preston. Need I say more! Good vibes all the way

Randomly walked past this restaurant and decided to pop in! Vibes were up! The inside of the restaurant is super vibey. Very chill ambiance The service was excellent. Food came out fast, waiter was friendly Ordered the bolognese and gnocchi with truffle. I've had better bolognese but still delicious. I do HIGHLY recommend the gnocchi with truffle. I was shocked to see that it was stuffed!! I've never had anything like it. The truffle flavor was prominent but not overpowering. There were shaved pieces of truffle on top which added a cute garnish but I don't think it added more to the dish. Definitely recommend if you like truffle

lobster pasta
Michelle H.

giving this place 4 stars only because the food was really delicious. to start - the eggplant parm special was amazing - so thin and crispy. the free focaccia is fluffy and fresh. of the main dishes, the stars were the lobster pasta, classic paccheri pomodoro, the branzino and the papardelle calabrian chili. the tiramisu dessert was fine. the pistachio gelato was creamy. as for the service - there seemed to be only one waiter working on a friday night. it was SOOO slow. they gave us a complimentary salad and comped the desserts to compensate which was nice. the negroni was good but not the best i've ever had. lastly, the ambiance is cool. dimly lit. nice for a date night or a swanky dinner for a group

Pappardelle Swordfish ragu
Liz B.

I made a reservation here for a Friday night at 8 PM and hung out at the bar while they got our table ready. The staff were nice and brought my friend a chocolate raspberry cake to celebrate her birthday! The food here was definitely fresh but not the most flavorful? The crispy cauliflower had no dressing on it for some reason when we got it and the burrata, although good, only came with two small pieces of bread. The free bread they give was okay but you can tell the olive oil is good quality! I got the pappardelle swordfish ragu which was good but for all the Italian places around, didn't blow my mind away enough for me to make an effort to come back. Overall good, but pricey dinner!

Pistachio pasta and bolognese
Rosanna N.

Cute Italian place had a galentine dinner here. Pistachio pasta was good noodles quite Al dente. Bolognese was just ok. Eggplant parm was good

We had a wonderful Winter Restaurant Week 2026 at Osteria 57. The restaurant's decor is both traditional and modern, the traditional furniture contrasting well to the eclectic bar areas. Our server was very kind and warm, and checked on us frequently. Service was slightly slow in between appetizers and entrees, but it was a Thursday evening. All three pasta dishes, the cacio e pepe, vongole, and lobster linguine were incredible. For dessert, we were able to choose 2 scoops of gelato from their collection and we really enjoyed the stracciatella. Thank you for a great dinner!

Burrata
Judy C.

Two of us went for NYC restaurant week dinner, $45 for 3 courses. We got fried calamari, burrata, spaghetti with clams, gelato and cannoli. Everything was very good, decor is eclectic and the waiter was charming (he was from the Amalfi coast).

Saffron Garganelli- Handmade saffron infused garganelli, lump crab, Calabrian chili butter, Sorrento lemon breadcrumbs. $30. Excellent dish
Glenn C.

I went to this Italian place a while ago as per many of my recent reviews. The place is pretty small and the service was friendly going a bit above and beyond compared to many other spots. I didn't order too much as I was going to a tournament at the Marshall Chess Club up the block from there but from what I had, the food was very tasty. They gave some bread and olive oil at the beginning which was warm and fresh and had some good crispiness and was overall good quality. As my only dish, I went with the Saffron Garganelli for $30 with handmade saffron infused garganelli, lump crab, Calabrian chili butter, and Sorrento lemon breadcrumbs. The pasta, which resembles quills, was cooked properly with a little bit of a chew and was good quality with a good portion size. The crab in there was plentiful and sweet and there was a little bit of smoky heat from the chili butter but not too much that it overpowered the crab. The bread crumbs was a unique touch adding an interesting but delightful crunch to the pasta with a bit of semi-sour lemon flavor. The dish overall was well balanced, very flavorful, and filling and I liked it a lot. I got a side of Sautéed Corn for $12 with scallion and pickled onion which was okay. The corn was hot inside of a mini skillet with it being pretty sweet and pretty buttery almost reminding me of esquites but without the heat. I think it would have been overall a bit too sweet and one note if it wasn't for the pickled onions which added a nice bit of sourness and crunch as well as a new texture. This was fine but I wouldn't order it again. In terms of desserts, I perused but had no time but I did find an amaro/amari I had never had before and after checking with the waiter, they gave me a half a shot of it with the check which was very nice. I can see why this place has been around for a while as I overall had a good experience. The pasta I had was excellent, the menu is small but well designed, and the inside is comfortable being small but not too small that it feels cramped. I would definitely go back with a group. Rating is for now though it could be updated to lower if I go back and have a dish that's not as good as that excellent garganelli.

Fettuccini al Gamberi - Homemade fettuccini, asparagus, wild shrimp, lemon butter, calabrian chili
Aviator D.

Nicely dimly lit place, it wasn't crowded when we went. I didn't use the bathrooms so I can't comment on them. Service was attentive! I had the salmon cooked medium well and I think I prefer it well done but I didn't know that at the time, oh well my bad! It's a thick cut of salmon though, I could barely finish it haha! The carrots you should definitely order, the sauce they use is addictive. My lover enjoyed his pasta.

This is a gem, especially if you're looking for a romantic date night spot. The ambiance is intimate, warm, and inviting. I visited during NYC Restaurant Week ($45 for a three-course meal). I started with the Ricotta Toast, which was incredible--the combination of truffle honey, sourdough, and shaved truffle was delicious. For my main, I had the Bucatini Swordfish "Bolognese," a unique twist on a classic pasta dish. To finish, the Polenta Cake was a tasty dessert.

As a tourist from the Midwest, I want to first start with the decor. The absolute homage to the…read more1920s is beautifully reflected in the decor. The tile on the floor to the sconces hanging from the walls. The bar is a beautiful scene for a backdrop for photos, but more importantly than any of that is the service provided. We specifically want to mention included Daniel. Daniel was the most hospitable, the most gracious and absolutely the most accommodating staff we have encountered in our trip to New York so far. Daniel made excellent choices and actually helped to custom craft drinks to our particular taste. In addition Daniel provided excellent recommendations for heavy snacking plate sharing and enjoying the overall experience.

There's no comparison to my favorite restaurant Jerk and Jambalaya in Rehoboth Beach . The restaurant and Sintelle Taylor are excellent, excellent, excellent and did I say excellent. The food speaks for itself. The oxtails, the Mac and cheese, the greens the corn bread. Yes honey I will travel for great food. Listen up y'all restaurants, I will no longer be mistreated by bad and then asked for a tip. Jerk Jambalaya I support you and thank you for all you do. The standard has been raised .
