This place is small and cute. They had the world cup on a big projector over the bar which i think took away from the vibes a little bit, the overbearing screen in the middle of the restaurant didnt match the modern classy ambiance. The pasta was great and clearly handmade, had a nice chew and great flavor. The special chilled red wine was lovely on a hot sunday to go with said pasta. Its not the cheapest but we enjoyed our food well enough anyway. read more

It was a beautiful afternoon so we were feeling wine on a patio while strolling the neighborhood, and luckily we happened upon this cute spot. The hostess wasn't thrilled to seat us since we said we were just getting a drink, but since it wasn't crowded we were lucky enough to get one of the few patio tables. They had a good wine by the glass selection with a number of sparkling, white, and red options. I opted for a lambrusco, and my boyfriend a glass of white. I was excited to see lambrusco on the menu since they aren't on them frequently. We enjoyed the wine and dog spotting and received friendly service from our server. read more

Ok expensive food. This time had half soup sandwich. Needed second lunch after. Pastries hit or miss, it's either fresh or stale, no way to know. read more

This was my fifth time here, and it never disappoints! I've been to both the Union Square and NoMad locations (I even celebrated my birthday at NoMad--loved it!). Tonight, I came for one reason and one reason only: d'Asti Week. We were greeted with a complimentary glass of Moscato alongside our Salumi & Formaggi board. The cheese paired beautifully with the wine, and I couldn't resist treating myself to a bottle (wine not?). Moscato is my favorite, and I couldn't have found a more perfect place to celebrate it. My friends and I each tried something different: I had the spaghetti Pomodoro, one friend enjoyed the tuna tartare, and another had the elevated version of spaghetti and meatballs (the fancier name I forgot). Every dish was delicious. I can't recommend this place enough for date night, a special event, a birthday, or just unwinding over wine and dinner with friends after work. The staff here is consistently fantastic: accommodating, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile. Alla prossima volta! read more

I wish Columbus Bakery were still here for an excellent UWS breakfast option. In its absence Tarallucci e Vino is a solid uncontroversial choice for an early meal, before the majority of the neighborhood's eateries open for business. I opted for the uova e asparagi which seemed like the most interesting thing on the menu. It exceeded my expectations - despite a light amount of cheese, the potatoes were very flavorful and also nicely tender. I would return for lunch or dinner if I find myself in the area. read more

Sat the center bar area, with all the homemade cookies in canisters right in front of us. They all looked delicious. We ordered the spaghetti & the egg sandwich. Both were made fresh and full of flavor. Cute spot for a bite before heading to the AMNH. read more

I came here for a super late lunch with my dad this past Saturday and was pleasantly surprised at how good everything was here. The space itself is small, but posh with tables and half table half booths. There was no wait to be seated. With our waters, we each ordered a glass of white wine, which was alright, and the waiter brought out 2 kinds of a bread (a focaccia and I think a French) with a small dish of olive oil which was nice to snack on. I ordered the Caesar salad, which was dressed well and had nice crunches to every bite, both from the fresh lettuce and from the crunch seasoning and crispy crumbs on top. It was delicious although I would have liked the egg yolk to have come on top so I could break it and mix it in myself. My dad ordered the Tarallucci Burger, which was wonderful, especially the potatoes that were delicious and well seasoned without being too salty. We noted the burger itself had high quality ingredients with the best flavors coming from the melted cheese and black truffle aioli on the bread. We finished our meal with glasses of red wine and port. The port was fantastic and served with little circular Italian sugared cookies that paired perfectly with the delicious drink. I would recommend this to visitors who are coming from or headed to the Museum of Natural History which is nearby or anyone wanting a quality meal at any hour. read more

Pastry review - I didn't know this place sold pastries until I found them on the Too Good to Go app. I primarily think of it as a wine bar. I was shocked by how good they were! I got an almond croissant, raisin roll and another croissant stuffed with cream (least favorite). Loved how there was a rich almond flavor in the almond croissant. Liked the flakiness. The raisin roll was filled with quite a lot of raisins! Highly recommend checking out in the morning! read more

Food was delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. We got the Rigatoni and Pasta Al limone and they were both fantastic. Service was great and everyone there was super friendly. Beautiful vibe inside as well and not too loud. The current rating for this place is NOT accurate to our experience and should be rated 4.3+ easily read more

Had made reservations for NYE which had a Prix Fixe menu with a decent split of vegetarian and meat selection across three courses. We went for the early seating and it was relatively quiet on a rainy last day of the year. Alex, our server, was friendly and was kind enough to offer us a glass of wine on the house, after he felt bad having charged full price for our little one on the Prix Fixe menu. Food overall was pretty decent. There was a Pappardelle pasta for our little one, and a few great options for meat lovers, including a Rib-eye steak which unfortunately lacked flavor, in spite of adding their rather heavy garlic and heavy cream sauce. The lobster tail was thoroughly enjoyed by the seafood lover on our table, and was enough to knock a person out on the table next to us, who possibly had a shell fish allergy. We were glad to see the person doing fine though, towards the end of the meal. Definitely not a nice way to end the year! Noise levels were on the average end throughout our time there, and their menu and service were pretty good, definitely on the expensive end though. Will definitely visit again sometime in the near future! read more

Went late on a Monday. Service was really good. I love the vibe. The focaccia was more like a pizza. It was good but wish it was more like a traditional focaccia. The Caesar salad was good nothing crazy. I did enjoy the cacio e Pepe which was dripping in butter. Pasta was homemade which was good but I've had better. Would definitely recommend as a fun happy hour or even just romantic night in the UWS. read more

Everything the food was awful. The service was weak. The only customer appeared to be off duty employees. Do not go here.

We sat outside. No napkin or silverware until after the food came. $30. For a small bowl of rigatoni boulanaise. No bread. Had to ask our waiter to clear the dirty dishes. Skip this place read more

Had a very nice dinner here with some great people watching. Got a nice table outside and started with a good bottle of Cab. Took in the beautiful weather, relaxed and enjoyed the cool vibe and our dinner. Polipo- large enough to share. Charred Octopus served on top of fennel , roasted potatoes, and arugula with lemon and olives. Grilled Branzino- a nice piece of Mediterranean Sea Bass, mild and sweet and cooked with capers, cherry tomatoes, kalamata olives. A side of oven roasted fennel with a parmesan gratin was served alongside the fish. Service was excellent from the hostess, the nice woman behind the bar, and Dillan our server, all making the evening so enjoyable. Great night, Great atmosphere, great food. read more

Really great diner, everything was well made with good ingredients, nice decor and professional service. It's pricey but worth it.

The food here is consistently excellent, the service attentive and prompt, the ambiance buzzy but I can still hear my companion clearly. It's a small, intimate space with counter/bar seating as well. I am dairy allergic, my husband cannot have garlic or shellfish, and Taralucci e Vino is one of the restaurants on the UWS that has always taken good care with our issues. It is a regular stop on our culinary wanderings through the city. read more

I placed an order to carry out, and when I arrived with my baby in stroller, I noticed that there was no ramp to enter the restaurant. I called to see if someone could assist me, and the woman who answered the phone was extremely rude. She told me I needed to come inside to pay (yep, that's what I was trying to do...) and when I explained I couldn't get my stroller up the steps she barked, "what do you expect me to do about it?!" I told her that having an inaccessible entrance is illegal in NYC, and she scoffed, saying that she had a ramp. Moments later, she came outside with my to-go bag and shoved it in my face. I was able to pay the bill using a QR code on the receipt. I debated writing this review because I have always enjoyed the food here, but I think it's important for anyone with a physical disability to know that this is a hostile place with unkind staff that does not deserve your business. read more

My husband and I were walking by on a weekday evening and decided to stop for a light dinner outdoors. The ambiance and service were standard, and the food was good overall. My husband fell in love with the spaghetti featuring Nonna Michelina's sauce. The fresh pasta was perfectly cooked, and the tiny meatballs were adorable and generously covered in sauce. Though I'm usually not a fan of meatballs, I found myself enjoying the cute bites. The branzino, on the other hand, was nothing exceptional. We paid through the InKinda app and received $25 off our bill. It's a cute spot in the neighborhood. read more

I love this neighborhood restaurant! The staff is welcoming and the food is presented very nicely and tastes delicious.

It's a neighborhood restaurant kind of like Cheers! read more

Wow, did not expect to like this neighborhood place - especially for breakfast. Their side of homefries is seriously good - very flavorful, crispy on the outside and meltingly soft on the inside. The side is expensive but it easily feeds two as a side dish. The pastries are great - but be aware that they are Italian. So the peach danish was delish - but bore only a passing ressemblance to a deli danish. It was lighter, crispy and less greasy. Ditto for the cinnamon roll - I thought it was a bit too refined, my friend loved it. We fought over the corneto. If you get the 3 pastry selection, go to the bar and look at all the offerings. There were some specials that we could have selected. The French toast was very good, the fruit was fresh - more than just a garnish. Once again, this is a splittable dish. The bacon was thick but crispy - perfect for me. And the coffe was AMAZING! Seriously - I got iced coffee and it was a treat as opposed to an afterthought. Dinner was equally pleasant. The charred octopus app is dinner sized. The octopus was quite large and meaty - but also very tender. I love octopus and this was a great version. My friend got the pinsa with proscuitto. She liked it, I thought it looked a bit bready, but I am biased towards NYC thin slices. I had the broccoli, sausage pasta and it was light but filling - great for a hot summer's evening. One drawback - Happy Hour is ONLY at the bar. C'mon guys! Still, I am looking forward to trying more dishes here, what a chill neighborhood place. read more

This was a great find for lunch with friends. We had the Caesar salad, the Ragu and the caprese panini. The food tasted great and was just the right amount. Service was superb as well. read more

This lovely place is about 60 or 70 ft from my front door. The aroma of what they're cooking is always so incredible lots of yummy garlic mushrooms Etc I love to eat here and it's too bad... so many other people have discovered the place that you need reservations at dinner time now where we never used to!. But I understand it and they're thriving and they're wonderful. The service is very lovely the food is freshly made locally sourced and just wonderful I have never had anything here that I didn't like. The atmosphere is casual. There are lots of tables outside where our local canine friends can sit and greet passers by. Not only is food scrumptious but during the pandemic this restaurant provided food for an SRO for seniors at which I used to work. They are very Community minded and wonderful here. read more

Perfection. Our favorite Italian on the UWS. Milanese, pasta, bread pudding all amazing

Maybe it was the fact that it was a million degrees outside with high humidity or maybe it was the beer, but we loved stopping at this little wine bar after a long afternoon in the city we got two pasta dishes, beers, and dessert. Everything was delicious and perfectly portioned. There were no tables available at the time but sitting at the bar was so enjoyable. Will definitely recommend this place for a quick bite to eat that's also delicious. read more

Dropped by for an early brunch. Cafe itself was small but had larger outdoor seating area. There was no shade so it was a bit bright but nice on the particular day we went. Menu had good options. Aperol spritzes were great! I had the malfadine cacio e Pepe, which had good taste, but portions weren't huge. Service was a bit slow the entire time we were there. Prices were as expected for NYC (aka not cheap, but overall not horrible). Was a good place if venturing out early and looking for brunch before the crowds. read more

Gnocchi con Pesto: extremely fresh- pasta tasted like it was made 10 minutes ago, pesto was delicious but slightly under seasoned Bruschetta con Funghi: delicious! pretty small though, only 1 piece per order Olives: great pre-dinner snack but they were surprisingly spicy! order them mild if you don't like spice Notes: lovely place to go if you want great food but don't want to eat in a place that's too stuffy/formal! pasta sizes are insanely small and prices are a little high, don't go if you're too hungry but the food itself was amazing and tasted really high quality read more

Came for a pre-concert meal with a friend. Ordered the special of the day: pappardelle with mushrooms and truffle. Initially received the pappardelle in a red sauce and was confused LOL. Apparently they had brought me the wrong dish and then made me the correct meal. Not gonna lie, just based on the one noodle I had of the first dish, it was a lot more flavorful than my actual intended dish. The special kind of felt flat and like it was relying on being ~truffle~ to shine, but I do enjoy mushrooms so it's fine. The bread was also good! Caesar salad was enjoyable, but nothing crazy. read more

excellent food, service was outstanding and a very inviting outdoor atmosphere. Highly recommended!

I found a haven of warmth in the mist of cold snowy day. Rita behind the counter welcomed me in with her warm smile and made the best cappuccino. She recommended one of the in house made pastries. I chose the almond croissant, she even offered to warm the croissant. Delicious! Very friendly, wish I had more time to hangout with her. Chatty, smiling, witty, Italian. I can't wait to go back and try the pastas. Thank you, Rita read more
