    Bucatini Carbonara
    Karen S.

    This place is amazing. The ambience is super beautiful. It's like walking into an amazing Italian restaurant with dripping candles and the energies awesome it's got a really really cool vibe. The food was absolutely delicious. We had the steak. It was so good. The brussels sprouts was great and the carbonara pasta was so good. Highly recommend they also had wine that was in from Italy and the wine maker was there who came to the table and actually sat and talked about the wine. It was such a beautiful night so great absolutely love this place. Highly recommend great for a friends family date night totally awesome. Definitely my new favorite place service was really fast. They came to constant checking on us making sure we had water.. dessert was delicious!

    What an extraordinary meal! You wander into a candlelit decadent country home - brick walls, open fires, romantic as hell. The sound ši energetic and the staff is lovely - welcoming and cheerful. From the sommelier (who told us so much about white vermouth and gin runners that our heads swam!) to the lovely server who sent us home - every course was magnificent. The amuse bouche had layers of flavor, the crab bruschetta was piles of crab on fluffy country bread. The signature Rosetta pasta came in an iron skillet and the rotisserie chicken flavored with exotic smoke from the woodfire was already succulent but dipped in the citrus butter you thought you were going to die. Get the polenta and eat it quickly before it clumps and get the asparagus and sigh over the mascarpone. Get the fantastically light raspberry pistachio strati dessert. You think you have no room but if you get one of the many flavored espresso martinis you will be laughing and chatting well into the night anyway so you'll get a second wind. Fabulous place. Fabulous food. I'll come back for sure.

    I had a lovely experience here! My friends and I were seated downstairs. We walked down stairs outside of the restaurant and it was basically a separate dining room. The downstairs felt like a little rustic cave but in the best way possible. It felt very cozy with the dark wood/interior, dim lighting, and candles. There is a single stall bathroom in this downstairs dining area. We got: - 50/50 tuna tartare: it came with bread "pillow" which was fluffy and soft. I really liked this! My favorite appetizer we got - prosciutto: this came with a few strips of prosciutto, another bread "pillow" and - rigatoni: this was really good! It was hot when it came out but super flavorful and I thought it was good portion. - buccanti: this came in mason jar then the server shook it out for my friend. I thought this was okay compared to the rigatoni Service was good but I had to ask for water a couple times before our glasses were refilled.

    Great Italian spot in nolita. SO enjoyed a Fiona cocktail while I had a lager. For starters we had a caesar salad, roasted oysters and octopus. For entrees we had the rosette and suckling pig along with a side of snap peas. We topped it off with the torta caprese, which was decadent. Bottom line, the service was excellent and the food tasted as good as it looked...enjoy the pics.

    We were a party of four on Thanksgiving. We got a really nice circular table in the rear of the virtually all candle lit beautiful restaurant. Our choice was the standard turkey with multi sides for the table included Brussels sprouts, dressing, yams and something with mushrooms. All over the top delicious. After lots of wine and tons of fun we finished with apple pie ala mode. I know it sounds passé, let me tell you it was anything but. We were treated like long lost friends by everybody. Our waitstaff was very attentive and kept our wine glasses filled. We were visited tableside by the owner chef, who was friendly and welcoming. We'll go back before we leave for the summer.

    Another time that I'm torn. Not really a 3 star place - closer to a 4 star place but not quite a 4 star in my book. But i give the rating based on which number of stars it is closer to. We arrived early and the hostess seemed a little agitated / annoyed and at first just said that they were not open. I think the owner came by to tell us that we could wait at the bad instead of just waiting in entrance. Even then, when they did open, the hostess didn't come over to us to tell us that the table was ready - instead, just started seating people as they came in. To be clear, the bar wasn't open either and they weren't serving us. The appetizers are good - salad and the squid. The squid was spicy and more of a grilled. Had a nice topping that reminds me of a chimmichurri sauce. I had the roasted chicken which I like the concept but all of the extremities were burned because I think they try to make it a single portion and therefore a small chicken. They may want to think about making that more of a table/family type of offering and just have the larger chicken. Others in our party had pastas which were good - not overly salted and very balanced. Desert was also very well balanced - not too sweet and very satisfying. I like the vibe of the place. Dark and rustic. The glimmer of the glasses made it look really quite nice.

    Vanessa was the most beautiful and amazing bartender/ waitress!! She helped correct a food situation with no problem and made the whole experience ten times better!!! The food was absolutely delicious and the ambiance perfect!!! The dim lit restaurant was the cherry on top of such a great place!! Would highly recommend the rosette short rib pasta!!!

    I was super excited to try this place out because of the ambience of the spot and it honestly didn't disappoint. Dimly lit and candles all around. My grievance is with the service and the main dishes that we ordered. While we were finishing up on our appetizers the server came in and asked us if we were done to change our plates and asked for a couple more minutes so we could finish, right after he left our server came and asked the same thing and I told her the same thing, she decided to clear the plates anyway... why ask at all then?! My pasta was burnt on top and that just ruined all of the potential for it to be a great dish, my friend's chicken was also kinda meh. I've had two pieces of the pasta and she had barely touched the chicken. The plates were taken away and nobody asked if anything was wrong with the food ‍ Regardless of all the above Caesar salad was really good and so is the sourdough pillow. The hostesses were also very nice.

    A cozy spot for Italian eats tucked into the Nolita area -- the interior is so rustic and charming, really loved the brick, wooden tables and candlelight details. It's a great spot for a date night or dinner with friends! The waiters here were really nice and good at making recommendations. We got apps to share and they have different sizes for entrees if you're sharing versus not, which was great. I highly recommend everything we got, including the Snap Peas and Burrata appetizers and Vodka Rigatoni! I'd come back to try some of the fish entrees and more of the pastas.

Particularly the penne funghi is to die for. Tried the linguine vongole clam pasta for the first time and was pretty good as well! Just wish there was more sauce and the clams were the tiniest size I've seen which was disappointing and to make matters worse, a good 1/3 of them were empty. Besides that, the meal was delightful and still great value as it was delicious with huge portions! Love! However, service at this particular branch is nowhere near as good as other branches. I understand it's busy and it's always incredibly crowded with people and cramped seating and loud music/voices but this was like no other. When I arrived party of 2, they had nearly 5 tables empty and yet we couldn't sit at any of them because the had to wait for reservations to see if they arrived and we had to wait 15 min but they said they'd let us know. We were forced to sit at the bar which the giant metal can of alcohol bottles took up 1/2 my seating/dining area and no one bothered to move it or ask if that was okay because obviously it wasn't but the didn't care. We waited awhile for the food to come and during that time we asked if there really wasn't any table availability since tables clearly open and the denied again even though reservations never came. Literally 3 tables remains consistently empty throughout our entire dining experience confined to the cramped bar area. They even closed the door, separating the outdoor diners which was weird and it became insufferably hot inside, even on a cold windy day. Bathroom situation here is also terrible as it is downstairs with steep narrow stairs and me and other customers almost bumped into each other and staff carrying multitude of food dishes and dirty dishes up and down the stairs. Never have I ever had such an undelightful experience going to bathroom at a restaurant. Additionally, sink water pressure either had no water coming out or a giant spray of water making it impossible to wash hands without getting a whole shower. This location really needs work. Only reason why I'm not giving it five stars is because I love Fumo as a whole. Just skip this location.

We started with the housemade focaccia and Wagyu carpaccio--both were outstanding, with the perfect balance of crispy, flavorful, and fresh elements.

We finished with the famous olive oil cake, which we loved for its subtly sweet, moist and tender bite. Served with lightly whipped cream and raisins, the combination was surprisingly delicious. We were also touched by the complimentary anniversary scoop of ice cream. The interior seating is a bit snug, but the decor is beautiful--elegant yet homey. The service was good as well. Overall, we highly recommend L'Artusi for a special night out!

Being Italian American, I'm hypercritical of spots like these - but nevertheless the positive reviews were overwhelming so I wanted to check it out for myself. One of my friends and I were looking to catch up, so I booked a table and off we went. While it can be tricky to get a reservation during prime dinner time, it's relatively easy to get a lunch reservation - or an early/late dinner. I managed to get a reservation for dinner at 9:15pm which was the earliest I could find. The restaurant is pretty unassuming on the outside - it looks like a converted brownstone and once inside we were greeted by a large space with a sceney vibe. The space is split between two levels with a large bar up front and a semi-open kitchen in the back. The decor was modern - with lots of greys and neutral tones which was a little unexpected. The main star of the menu is pasta, but they also have a few non-pasta mains as well as some crudo selections, apps, and sides. We decided to get a few apps, two pastas, and one side. To start, we went with the octopus, roasted mushrooms, burrata crostone, and focaccia. These were all really good, but my favorite was the mushrooms. I'm usually not a fan of mushrooms but these were prepared with red pepper and fried egg and were delicious; it cut through the earthiness and changed the texture to something I really enjoyed. The focaccia was also a standout - it's house made and was paired with a peppery oil that complemented the bread well. For mains we split two pastas - the caccio e pepe and the rigatoni. Both of these were very good, though I felt the rigatoni was the stronger dish. It was prepared with sausage ragu, soppressata, broccoli rabe pesto, and pecorino. The flavors worked really well together and the pasta was cooked al dente. The caccio e pepe was perfectly fine, I just feel it's been overplayed and didn't feel there was anything that stood out amongst the others I've tried. We also got a broccoli rabe as a side which was great. We couldn't leave without dessert and decided to get their olive oil cake and quattro formaggio cheesecake. The restaurant is known for the former - it was perfectly fine but I've had olive oil cakes elsewhere of the same or better quality. The cheesecake was the stronger dessert IMO - the combination of cheeses gave it an interesting, almost savory flavor. The brûlée top and mascerated strawberries were great texture and flavor complements. Service was great - the place was packed but service was consistently on point and everyone was friendly. Overall, I had a good experience at L'Artusi. While everything was very good, I'm struggling to find the exact reason why this place became such a hot spot compared to other Italian spots in the city. Nevertheless, you'll have a good meal here and I would definitely return if given the opportunity.

I read the reviews mostly good so I was hoping for the best. My friends and I were not disappointed. The first thing I noticed was there were 7 people in my party and 4 arrived early and did not have to wait for my arrival to be seated. Second the waiter who took our order was polite and on point with specials and knowledge of the menu. He (just never caught his name) suggested the Rigatoni which chicken and sausage. I am not really a pasta eater but baby that dish could change that; it was DELICIOUS. I even liked the anchovy dressing on my Caesar Salad and I dislike anchovies. All the dishes ordered (chicken parm, mussels chicken paillard etc.) everyone enjoyed them immensely. The only negative was when the Chicken Paiikard arrived it was supposed to a shared dish by the elderly couple and they asked for regular dinner plates from one of the servers. It took the gentleman who took our order to step in and said sure, lucky their food was still hot. Common Sense is not so common for all. But this will not lower my rating as it was taken care of swiftly. The portions were the perfect size and I was not stuffed but pleasantly satified. We told them the time of our show, food was out quickly, nicely presented, still hot and very tasty. The restaurant was not noisy and had space between the tables. It also had an elevator for those who could not manage stairs. Trattoria Trecolori you will be added to my must go again list! Thank for a wonderful experience!

Even though we had a reservation, we arrived ahead of schedule and were seated right away, which felt like a small miracle in Midtown. Service was friendly and attentive from start to finish. Our server kept my water glass consistently full (always appreciated), and we each enjoyed a glass of wine to unwind after the show. As someone with a gluten allergy, I was glad to see they offer gluten-free options, though I do wish there were a few more to choose from. It's manageable, but the menu can feel a bit limited depending on your preferences. We started with the caprese and prosciutto, which was fresh, simple, and well-executed. My aunt ordered a veal marsala, and I went with the seafood risotto since it was gluten-free. The risotto was creamy and satisfying, loaded with seafood and full of flavor. That said, for the price point, I wouldn't have minded a slightly more generous portion--but that's pretty typical for the area. We were starving and dove in right away (careful--it comes out piping hot), and everything really hit the spot. Dessert was the only miss for me. The gluten-free options were limited to sorbet or tartufo, so we decided to skip it this time. The atmosphere strikes a nice balance--lively without being overwhelming, and perfect for catching up over dinner. By the time we left, the place was packed, which says a lot. Bonus points for free Wi-Fi, which you don't always find. Parking is exactly what you'd expect in NYC: pricey and a bit of a challenge, so plan accordingly. Overall: Great service, enjoyable food, and a convenient pre- or post-theater spot--I'd just love to see a few more gluten-free options and slightly larger portions for the price.
