    Mangia! Our favorite meal in Rome has quickly become our favorite meal in the City. So hot right now, Hansel-only counter seating for us. No worries there was more than enough space for our feast and they made the best use of it. We started with an excellent dealers choice cheese plate, caponata and bread basket. My wife had the Amatriciana she loves and I had what continues to be the very best Carbonara. Finished with Tiramisu and wondered when we can get back here again.

    Came here on a Wednesday and it was fairly busy for the Roman Feast. If you're there for the tasting menu you head downstairs. The space is medium sized with a good amount of tables for 4. I sat with my friend at a booth. We tried the classic wine pairing with it and it def enhanced the experience. They also have an additional 2 dishes that are specials if you want to try additional seasonal items but the general tasting menu is a lot. Def come hungry! I felt like everything was prepared well. The pastas were perfect texture and the meat was very tender. My favorite of the night was Amatriciana Pasta! Overall, had a great experience with friendly staff. Would def come back again! It's a great way to share food in a large party for the holidays

    They have a service called the Roman Feast which provides you with a four course meal (appetizers, mains and dessert). You can also add wine pairings to each dish. The concept is family style which is pretty unique for a prix fixe meal. They also add some additional dishes as a surprise which was fun! My favorite was the tiramisu which was so so good

    This is a tiny restaurant and the max rsvp is 5 people. They have seating at the street level and then additional seats in the lower level for the prixe fixe. We sat literally next to the entrance. It was a very uncomfortable seating arrangement for 5 people. Luckily we were able to squeeze onto the bench since our 5th person was a kid. We ordered the Cheese Monger's choice board for $34. It had three different types of cheeses, four thin slices of two, and a little bit of a soft cheese. They were all pretty mild and crowd pleasing. No funky ones. It came with some honey, but no bread. We also ordered the sun-dried tomato burrata for $24. It came with NO bread. We had to order bread separately for $8. The bread was hard, stale and tasted like it was pre-cut for dinner service. Very disappointed with the amount of food and quality vs. cost. The cacio e pepe - it was gummy as other reviewers noted. It should be smooth and warm when served. It was cold. The amatriciana was not notable. We also ordered the fish (PESCE E FAGIOLI ZOLFINI), which was also not notable. The fish tasted it was thawed too quickly from a frozen slab. Tiramisu was standard. A little too much cream for me. Probably will not return.

    Roscioli began in Rome in 1974 and still runs several beloved spots there. In 2023, it opened its first (and only) location outside Italy on MacDougal Street in Soho, NYC. We sat upstairs in the cozy à la carte room, which is small and intimate, with a little shop selling cheeses, olive oils, pastas, and merchandise to take home. (Downstairs offers a five-course set menu, The Roman Feast). We started with burrata with semi-dried tomatoes and fried artichokes, both apps great. The cacio e pepe and carbonara we split were al dente, peppery, and rich. Service was warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. Simple Roman classics done just right.

    Restaurant from Rome (they are on the @michelinguide over there) right here in NYC. The restaurant is really cute with the Italian pantry items (always lured me in). Our favorite ended up being the artichoke appetizer! Note that there are not many vegan or vegetarian options here!

    Had such a great experience doing 'THE ROMAN FEAST' at Roscioli. Roman Feast: $95 (no beverage) + $55 (Standard wine pairing add-on) before tax and tip. This included five courses with five wine pairings. The food was absolutely amazing! Like most pre-fixe, you never think the portions they serve will be enough, but trust me when I say we left absolutely stuffed! If you see more than 5 courses it is also because they did throw in a few extra breads and cheeses. The experience was great too. Our waitress was so amicable and knowledgeable about the foods and wines that were being served. The place is cute. Upstairs seems a bit more casual but still elegant if that makes sense. Downstairs definitely has a more elegant feel to it. Will definitely come back and try their regular menu next time!

    walked in for one on a tuesday night and was promptly seated at the counter. unsure if it was an off day but the carbonara was extremely bland. sauce was silky but had almost no taste, just a mild funk probably from the pecorino. i was chasing around the scant bits of cheese and guanciale on my plate for a hit of sodium. pasta also could've been a bit more al dente. the two olive oils they serve with their focaccia are great but don't save the meal. restaurant is cozy, tables are packed closely.

    Had my birthday at Roscioli and did the Roman Feast with the wine pairing. Let me tell ya, they did not lie about the "feast" part There are only two other times in my life where I've been so painfully full. Everything was SO delicious too. Would definitely come again - probably the best priced multi-course menu in all of NYC

    Spaghettoni alla carbonara
    Matthew H.

    I stopped by for a weekday lunch by myself - they were pretty busy (even around 2pm) but I was able to get seated at the bar without much of a wait. I had the supplì al telefono to start - really delicious! The breading was great -- not too crispy/oily -- and complemented the delicious inside filling (rice, beef, mozzarella) wonderfully. Definitely would recommend this as an appetiser. For pasta I had the spaghettoni alla carbonara (which I think is their speciality)? The most notable part is that the sauce is very "Roman", i.e. they don't add cream to it, so the mixture of just egg and cheese is much thicker/creamier and saltier. I think it was really too rich/heavy - by the end of the dish it felt like every bite was overwhelming :( The guanciale was nice -- I liked the bold, savoury flavour -- but definitely contributed to the overall feeling of saltiness throughout. Other than that, I have to say the pasta was cooked perfectly (al dente), which I appreciated. Restaurant interior was lovely -- feels very intimate and "home-y" -- and service was kind, attentive, and very prompt. Price point is a little high but it's not too bad for a splurge (esp by NYC standards). I'd definitely recommend giving it a visit (if you can snag a res), and I'd love to come back -- but I'd probably try a different pasta next time :P

    Tasting menu review: I don't know what Roscioli in Rome is doing, but its New York sibling isn't trying very hard. This was the blandest, most boring tasting menu I've ever had the misfortune of spending money on, and I'm annoyed I came. In a nutshell: The tasting menu food is too traditional to be interesting, and too mediocre to do justice to tradition. So what you're left with are dishes of overpriced cliches. - Complimentary mortadella sandwich: This was fine, but nothing I would've spent money on, so I appreciated that it was free. - Burrata Pomodori with Fried Artichoke: I guess they source their burrata from Italy, but given that it's dairy and local dairy is always fresher/healthier than imported dairy, I don't think that's something worth bragging about. This burrata was fine, if a bit too runny, and the fried artichoke hearts were forgettable. - Sicilian Red Prawns, Ossetra Caviar, Pane Carasau: We decided to fork over an extra $32 to try this upgrade. It was literally one prawn, cut in half, with caviar on top. About one spot higher than Coqodaq's $35 single chicken nugget on my list of "Single food items I've wasted money on". - Lasagna Modenese: Delicious and hearty. I wish every course had just been like this. - Mezze Maniche alla Pomodoro: Basically rigatoni in watery tomato sauce, but I guess if you slap on fancy Italian names, people will think it's more exotic than it is. Repeat after me: rigatoni in watery tomato sauce. And not even cooked well. - Misticanza + Roasted Squash / Short Rib: Basically, salad with your choice of main. The salad was just typical packaged greens made limp from dressing. We opted to get both main options to try more things. The squash was tiny, too sweet and barely seasoned with anything. The short rib was equally tiny, though cooked better than the squash. And this is their main course? - Complimentary parmigiana with aged balsamic vinegar: A nice thought, but I can't eat that much parmesan, and the balsamic vinegar tasted like port. Not my bag. - Tiramisu: Really? Tiramisu for dessert? I get it, it's an Italian classic. But this is one of those desserts that's so overdone, it's an eye-rolling cliche for me. So I rolled my eyes over to their alternative dessert , a blood orange / grapefruit sorbet, which was mildly better. Service was friendly, but our courses came out very inconsistently, with long waits after the first two dishes, leading us to spend far more time at the restaurant than we wanted. In short, I won't be putting Roscioli on my list on my next trip to Rome.

    Love the vibe here - everything is super well designed and it has an upscale casual feel. The appetizers were great - the suppli was perfect and the jamon was some of the best I've had. However, I expected a bit more out of the pastas. The cacio e pepe was good, but nothing extraordinary (Via Carota is better imo) and same for the amatriciana. It was well flavored but I wouldn't go back for it especially at $29 a plate. For dessert we had the tiramisu which was really nice! They also have some nice wines and the service is great. Overall, worth a one time visit but considering the high price point I won't be running back.

    Burrata, Sun Dried Tomato, Foccacia

    Definitely get a reservation, this place gets packed very quickly! Did the A La Carte experience, very expensive but the food was good! Got the burrata and sun dried tomatoes with focaccia to start, followed by the sage cappelleti (the STAR this was so good) and the cacio e Pepe. We also got the tiramisu for dessert which was really good! Overall it was a very good meal, just very expensive and I feel like there are other Italian spots in the city that are just as good but a little more affordable.

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 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.

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!
