    Where do I begin?! Everything we ordered was delicious and tasted so fresh. For starters, I had the tuna tartare which was so good. I've dined at many restaurants and not all manage to serve a freshly tasting and flavorful tuna but Savelli did just that. For my main, I ordered a pie that was half chicken for me and the other half had ham, sausage, and pepperoni for someone else at the table. It's a decent size pie and in my opinion it's good for at least three people. I'm looking forward to visiting again to try one of their pasta dishes.

    I am so happy to have found such a good Italian restaurant! The decor is beautiful, the staff was kind and food was phenomenal! I cannot wait to go back and try more things from their menu!

    Food 4:5 I enjoyed the food here and I wouldn't be against going back. Everything was fresh and tasty and flavorful and the portion sizes were the perfect size, I recommend the pollo limon. My only issue was the cream puffs they were very stale and I couldnt eat it but the lava cake was delicious and the ice cream and all of the wonderful toppings. Ambiance 4/5: very rustic and open reminded me of a chic farm, it doesnt really give birthday dinner vibes but seems great for family night or for a catch up with friends Service: 5/5 no complaints here our server was wonderful and very friendly, only thing is we waited a while to get the bill but other than that great place overall.

    The service to me was great. The lighting had a warm and cozy atmosphere. The food and drinks were amazing. The pizza was delicious. Me and the wife will come back. Thank you.

    - papardelle was reallyyyy good - orange wine was delicious and not over priced - kind workers - gorgeous little back room with enclosed outdoor seating - kind of weird cover music of pop songs but you get into it

    We went to an early show nearby & wanted a quick dinner, so we scanned Yelp for spots closest to us, and Savelli's was a great find! Staff was sweet & friendly, and it is such a big space w a pretty backyard! We sat immediately & got served warm strips of delicious bread, which we finished straight away.We didn't drink, having just come from a bar, but we ordered food which came pretty quickly. We got the watermelon salad (so refreshing!), and the fried calamari (perfectly fried). To share, we got a 29 inch pizza, and props to our server for letting us know it feed three people, because we had no idea how big it would be. So filling, and great leftovers. Would love to come back next time we're in the area!

    Pesto sauce is amazing! Yummy and creamy with breadsticks offered while we waited for our personal pizzas during a Brooklyn pizza tour

    I'm a bit hesitant to let the word out on how good Savelli is. They're brand new to the neighborhood and today was the first day of serving brunch (on a Saturday too!). Savelli is an adorable family owned business (authentic Italian) that catches your eye from the outside due to its rustic and quaint ambience. The space is quite large with the option to dine sidewalk, backyard or indoor. Because of Covid-19, I am too uncomfortable to dine indoors anywhere. We arrived at 2 p.m. and it was empty with the exception of a few patrons settled in the backyard patio area. The weather was still beautiful for dining outside; we took a table right near the front entrance. Our waiter was Rafael who was extremely friendly and attentive. Although pizza makes up a large part of the menu and I truly love it, I craved eggs today. We started off with complimentary focaccia--3 sticks infused with olive oil and herbs served in a basket. Very good. I also noticed a chalkboard sign offering Sangria HH special at $8 all day. As far as drinks, we settled on hot coffee. I am quite picky when it comes to coffee, but theirs was like no other. It almost tasted like an espresso/cappuccino and was very delicious. There were no free refills, but I was given a complimentary second cup. Thank you, Rafael! For entrée, we both selected the Eggs Benedict with Smoked Salmon served with a side salad and home fries. It arrived shortly after placing our order and was extremely good. The eggs were cooked perfectly and the cubed hash browns and salad was a great complement. The waiter brought over chili infused olive oil which I drizzled over the eggs. Divine. I found the portion ($14) to be quite satisfying and filling. The entire meal was a wonderful Saturday afternoon brunch treat. I am looking forward to returning and will try their pizza. With a cozy atmosphere, excellent food and stellar service, Savelli is a must try. Check it out.

    Savelli is a new addition in Smith street restaurant row, we meant to dine here since they open because it was only a block away from us, well last night was that night. They were packed when we arrived and yet considering the current restaurant situation but we were still able to snag a table for two at the backyard. The service here is fast but we did not feel that we were being rushed. We ordered a bottle of Montepulciano with a complementary focaccia with olive oil and herbs, I should say that the bread is good specially if one is slightly famished! In fact it was so that good that we asked for two servings!. We then ordered calamari friti served with hot marinara sauce, followed by shared Rigatoni Bolognese served with traditional Bolognese meat sauce and peas and their very own Savelli pizza with buffalo mozzarella, sausage, artichokes, mushrooms, basil and extra virgin olive oil. The dishes came one after the other and they were both freshly cooked and delicious. We did not have to go far to have a lovely Saturday night, with a charming ambiance, great customer service, and a good price point, it is definitely not our last visit!

    This was our first trip to Brooklyn to visit family and our first time at this wonderful place! The food was outstanding and the ambiance was amazing. My husband and will certainly be back on our time in town. The gentleman that provided our service was awesome and everything he recommended was exceptional!!

Unfortunately this place fell very flat. Leading with what we liked: Their mocktail offerings were good, promising a 0.0% ABV which is hard to come across when mocktails are offered. They serve oysters, which adds to that aphrodisiac experience of the oh so 'wow this is a former brothel!'. The bartenders and servers were fast and very sociable with the more sociable customers. The immediate entrance is very tight, and it was uncomfortable navigating the space. We expected there'd be more seating in the back, which there was, but it was limited and not offered to us until we asked for it. We honestly had no clue where it would be and only asked because of how this place was advertised. While it was comfy once we made our way back there, it was reminiscent of a lounge style bar space that almost any bar could replicate with the right room and budget. We didn't feel as though this hit the spot and were let down by this experience. I'm not sure if I can judge the menu of drinks/ foods as expensive, but we left hungry bc we couldn't justify some of the prices. In addition, I've seen a lot of complaints about the volume of the music: it's definitely loud at the front but a lot lower in that back lounge space. It's as loud as any bar's music level would be, but truth be told we were expecting music that matched the vibe of what was advertised and yes, at a lower volume.

All the drinks keep with the tropical, fruity taste with a hint of spice. They are also broken up into categories (dry land = no alcohol, shallows = average amount of alcohol, and abyss (larger amounts of alcohol). The abyss section has some cocktails that are limited to two per customer. They have some bar bites like fried green tomatoes, shrimp toast, broiled oysters, ricotta, dumplings, sliders. I had the French fries with kimchi ranch, which were underwhelming. Bartenders were cool and kept the drinks coming. I got in immediately without an issue or a wait, but it was right after a snowstorm. I've seen some people struggle to get in or have a long wait.

    I've been to this cocktail bar regrettably only twice even though I live (or rather lived upcoming…read moresoon) around the corner. It's classy but not too fancy and has enough space but doesn't get too loud. They have a nice happy hour menu from Tuesday-Friday from 5 to 7 as well as all day on Sundays which has very decent prices such as an $8 old fashioned among other things (see the photo.) the bartenders I've had before have been friendly with some good recommendations. Outside of their wide selection of cocktails which run the gamut of liquors, they have a nice wine selection, a handful of craft beers, and a very small food selection. The first time I was here, I had one drink which was the excellent Star of The Ice Snow for $17 with Iwai 45 whiskey, brie-washed Carpano Antica, Fernet Branca, barrel-aged orange bitters, and sassafras bitters. It had a a bit of bitterness, some sweetness, some spice, and some light mint from the fernet and was a pleasant complex drink and was certainly worth it from the price. The second time I was here was just this evening where I had two drinks. I first went with something that I was thinking of getting the first time which is their outstanding Vivian Darkbloom for $15 with Union mezcal, lime, pineapple, charcoal, Velvet Falernum, and lime bitters. The drink has mild citrusy sweetness as well a bit of smoke from the mezcal and is probably my favorite drink I've had here though the other drink I had the first time gives it stiff competition. I asked the bartender what he recommends and after a small discussion, he said either The Bell Witch (which is a gin and chartreuse cocktail with a strong herbal flavor) or what I went with. Said drink was the Under a Cosmic Cloak for $16 with rhubarb infused rum, Trois Rivieres rum, Smith & Cross rum, yerba mate, lime, grapefruit, and whey. The bartender said that it wouldn't be overly sweet as the rum was milk washed and this was indeed the case with just a mild sweetness and some fruitiness. There was a light herbal flavor otherwise presumably from the mate as well as a light citrus note and overall, it was good though definitely the least complex of the drinks I've tried and probably my least favorite but was definitely not a bad drink. The drinks here are reasonably priced for the quality, the bartenders are friendly, and it is classy but not overbearingly so. I can see why it's popular and I wish I stopped in more.
