    Cappuccino
    Ashley J.

    Very average. Was able to get a Saturday lunch reservation last minute and sit outside last minute no problem. Brought the dogs which was nice. Their one hour bottomless drinks for $25 is a great deal. The menu had a good mix of pizza and pasta to choose from. The pizza we chose was just OK but the cavatelli was pretty good. Service was mediocre. Took forever to get menus and to pay our bill.

    Broccoli Rabe pizza
    Asia T.

    It's a good rule of thumb when deciding on restaurant choices, that a place that serves a bottomless brunch option is generally going to have food that is not the best. Another is, if an establishment has a lot of open reservation slots on Friday night that falls on a three day weekend. This is one of those places. The space is beautiful and large, with lots of room for large parties and the wood fired pizza with broccoli rabe cream, mushrooms and sliced potatoes was great. That's about where it ends. Had the most expensive and worst tiramisu of my life here ($16 dollars for something served in a glass!) and it was honestly downhill from the first $22 mediocre cocktail. I 100% do not object to paying $22 for a cocktail but I'm expecting it to be good. Just live with the possible ambiguity and suspense of possibly not having a reservation on a Friday night. On the bright side, this would be a good place to bring a large party of over 10 people as long as you stick to the pizzas.

    Gnocchi

    Good spot for dinner! My friend had her birthday dinner here and we shared a few entrees! Everything was good and the service was great! We shared a few drinks and out of everything my favorite was probably the gnocchi and the prosciutto arugula pizza!

    Sotto 13 is an Italian restaurant in West Village with sophisticated atmosphere, excellent service and quality dishes and drinks. The dining room has a high ceiling window, which allows sunlight to shine through at daytime. Highly recommend if you're looking for a spot for romantic date night, friend/family gathering or weekend brunch. Shoutout to our server Helder--he was attentive and friendly throughout the dinner. *Grilled Octopus $22** The tenderness of the octopus won our heart. The outer was well-grilled with a slight crispy, while the inside was still bouncy and tender. The green tomato vinaigrette was a great sauce to dip into. We also enjoyed the roasted herb potato on the side. *Yellow Fin Tuna Tartare $21* A refreshing and appetizing antipasti. The fresh tuna cubes created a harmonious flavor with mashed avocado on the bottom. It was delicious to eat with the toasted garlic bread. *Hanger Steak $42*** Star of the show was definitely the hanger steak. The steak was cooked to perfection with a nice pinkish center and charred edges. It was served with a porcini mushroom sauce and roasted potato. Every element on the plate hit the mark, except the broccoli rabe was a tad salty for my liking. *Orecchiette Pugliese $28 They rotate the pasta menu based on seasonal ingredients. Our server recommended orecchiette pugliese, which was tossed with italian sausage, broccoli rabe, sun-dried tomato and parmigiano. The ear-shaped pasta held up the sauce beautifully. The flavors grew on us after a few more bites and we devoured it. *Tiramisu $12 I really liked the fluffy and airy texture of the mascarpone cheese. I wished the ratio of mascarpone cheese and ladyfingers were more balanced.

    My partner and I agreed, the most refreshing and amazing Italian meal we've ever had! If you're looking for a refreshing take on Italian food that's not overly heavy, then this is definitely the place. We had the pan seared scallops, the orecchiette pugliese and the octopus and they were all extremely well made and balanced. It still has those Italian notes with the acidity and strong flavors but it was complimented well with their use of greens that made for a uniquely refreshing experience

    Octopus
    Ann S.

    Super cute date night spot in the West Village! We enjoyed a delicious meal of Italian-inspired cuisine where everything was flavorful and cooked perfectly! We left full and so satisfied and loved the ambiance! We Tried: *Mussels - shrimp, octopus, tomato sauce, tuscan bread *Hanger steak - marble potatoes, broccolini, brandy green peppercorn *Octopus - roasted mushrooms, white beans, bell pepper, swiss chard *Creme Brûlée So good! Add this spot to your list if you haven't already!

    My friends and I came here for the brunch option on the weekend. Note that everyone is supposed to participate in their family style meal that comes with alcohol. They were kind enough to allow an exception for us so half our party did the family style and the other half ordered a la carte, but don't bank on that happening! Everything was honestly soo delicious and the experience was super fun! They give a LOT of food. We definitely had leftovers. I would say the only dish we didn't care for was the Quinoa Bowl. It was good, but just not as exciting as all the other items. Overall, great place!

    Honestly this place was good but not five star worthy. I feel like the food was good, but the service wasn't the best as we were met with unwelcoming service and our server kept dropping plates and dishes around us. One person in our party had a fork fall onto his back and he held it out so that someone would take it away lol. Not a terrible spot, but there's definitely better restaurants that I would rather go to around here

    Vegan Pepperoni Pizza

    I could not believe their vegan pepperoni pizza was vegan it was amazing! The cheese was perfectly melted.. I have no idea what vegan cheese they use but it was perfect! Love the vibes here. Great service and friendly staff. Will definitely be back.

    Corn Pop
    Anthony P.

    RATING: 7.3/10 I will say that the service is outstanding here. Really felt welcomed - right when I walked in, I think either the manager or owner was there greeting me and he continued to check in on our table throughout the night (we're really no one special, and it was our first time). The service gets a 10/10 The food was good too - notably the OCTOPUS appetizer was really delicious, had a nice crisp char and the best texture to it. Really fresh tasting and great job to the chefs because octopus is really easy to overcook and make tough as a result. TUNA TARTARE - was solid too, although because there's so much of these dishes in the city it's hard to stand out. I think that while we enjoyed it, it would benefit from a crispy component to pair with. CORN POP (COCKTAIL) - this was really delicious - if you like sour its got that nice lemony sweet and sourness while also having this sweet creaminess from the corn. A highlight of the evening for me as someone who likes all these things. CAVATELLI - silly me was trying to be too healthy and I didn't -love- this but I think because it's the healthier veggie forward option. But I will say the pasta was really good texture-wise: al dente with a really satisfying chew. My friends got the veal pasta and it was delicious!

    Think we lost track of how many times I exclaimed, "wow - this is so good!" ... because it was! Excellent dining experience at Sotto! We arrived on a Sunday night circa 8pm for NYC Restaurant Week, no reservation. We were promptly seated by a very friendly host! The space was beautiful and trendy. Everything we ordered was great! We started off with an Aperol Spritz and a Naughty Girl cocktail (oooh-la-la!). We continued with the octopus (fabulous!!!) and tuna tartare appetizers. Our mains consisted of the prosciutto pizza and the absolute piece de resistance - the lamb ragu rigatoni. Wow! We could have each gotten our own Finally, we had the crème brûlée which was fantastic as well as the Nutella/chocolate dessert balls. The service was also on point and very friendly! Overall, highly recommend and looking forward to going back again.

    Applejack old fashioned $18 with pear salad $17 in the background

    Celebrated a friend's birthday here with a party of 6 on a Saturday evening with reservations at 6:30pm. The restaurant was about 60-70% full by then, with reserved tables filling up the back area seating as dinner wore on. There's outdoor covered seating for about 12-14 people directly at the entrance, though it was a bit chilly so no one was seated there when we arrived. Right inside there's a bar to the left with bar seats and seating at high tables to the right. The back of the restaurant with sky lights set into high ceilings has a more formal feel. Food was quite good, decent appetizers, quality pasta and main dishes, and from feedback of the diners at our table everyone enjoyed the food. We ordered the arancini $18, pear salad $17, Di Parma pizza $25, spaghetti carbonara $27, pork osso buco $35, linguine clams $28, gnocchi with lamb sausage $29, broccolini $12, chocolate almond cake $12, and several drinks. They provide focaccia and olive oil for the table. Being Italian food it does tend to get quite heavy considering at carbs, olive oil, cheese, but the food didn't come off as greasy, I think because they used good olive oil. Service was terrific, very attentive and knowledgeable since a few people in our party had food sensitivities. Overall solid spot for an Italian meal.

    Does a 3:00 pm seating still get you the brunch deal? I know their hours says brunch ends at 3 pm but I wanted to make sure.

    Yes. Last seating for brunch is 3pm. Our social brunch is available 11-3pm Saturday and Sunday.

    Does the entire party have to be there to be seated?

    Yes

    Would bringing your parents and family here for a Mother's Day brunch be a bad idea? Does it get too rowdy that it's hard to hear people?

    No this place is great for Mother's Day! It's very pretty and it gets loud but not rowdy. You can definitely still hear someone across the table.

    What is the brunch atmosphere like? Do they offer private dining room options?

    I did not see a private room. In the entrance there's the bar with a small set which is more intimate I suppose (where I sat) and in the back is a larger space with many tables louder atmosphere, typical city brunch scene.

You can either take the stairs or the elevator. If you opt for the elevator, there's complimentary wine set up that you serve yourself. This would be great if the elevator took longer, but you are already there before you can finish pouring. I like that they have couches for you to sit at while you wait for your table. It's an open kitchen and you can see all of the action. The energy felt great here. We ordered the cast iron focaccia and Tuna Tonnato. The Focaccia is probably the best I've ever had. It was light and airy and not what a traditional focaccia would taste like. The crust had a nice crisp to it. It was brushed with olive oil and finished with salt. Just perfect and highly recommend. It came with a tomato chili sauce, which tasted good, but was not needed for this. We ordered the tuna to pair with the bread and it was a great combo. I ended up ordering the hangar steak and it was good. Full of flavor and the chimichurri sauce was a nice touch. Though, I would have like the taste of the beef to come out more. The marinade overpowered the meat IMO. My wife got the Rigatoni alla Gricia. I like the pasta and it was bouncy, but the dish was too salty though. We ended the night with the basque cheesecake and I have to say that it wasn't my favorite. The texture seemed off. Normally basque cheesecake is smooth and creamy, but this was a little lumpy like when you over cook eggs in a dessert. Overall, the service was great and the vibes of the restaurant was on point. The food didn't blow me out of the water, but it was good. I would come back here for the focaccia though.

There are numerous locations now in the city but this was my first time going and I was definitely eyeing it for awhile. They do weekday lunch specials of $14 pastas, boozey weekend brunches for around $24/25(not including food), and $12 Sunday dinner specials on entrees as well as happy hours on weekdays from 4-7pm that include: $7 snacks, $8 wine, $5 beer, $9 spritzes, and $9 wells. I happened to come in for Labor Day Brunch on Saturday. We both said we were going to do unlimited but honestly could only finish about a pitcher of mimosa and they only charged us for the one pitcher was the nice part. I went with Carbonara Pasta and my boyfriend had the egg, bacon, and cheese sandwich with fries. I'm not gonna lie, I've never gone to aycd brunch and have not finished my food but I could not finish my entree it was so massive and filling. I haven't had a pasta this rich in ages and it was so so good and I am all for not having those skimpy little portions. He couldn't finish his sandwich either. I tried one of the fries and it was nicely battered thick cut wedge fries. Maybe I haven't been eating out alot lately but I was legit impressed. The staff was wonderful and thoughtful. The cafe in itself is very cute and Italian with black and white marble in the bathrooms, white marble bar top, hanging plants, interesting light fixtures. I'm definitely going to make a point to come back soon.

    The experience was very disappointing. The menu labels many items as gluten free, but I was told…read morethere's cross contamination. This means those dishes aren't truly gluten free for people with celiac disease or anyone who has to avoid gluten. When I pointed that out to my server, he just gave me a blank stare. I tried to explain why labeling those items as gluten free is misleading, but he seemed completely disinterested, even annoyed, dismissed what I was saying, and simply responded that the pasta is gluten free. I acknowledged that the server doesn't write the menu, but absolutely zero customer service skills. The service overall was lacking. Aside from taking our order, no one checked on us or came back to see if we needed anything. Our server was just hanging out chatting up the hostess. We had to request the bill from the manager & paid at the hostess stand. Before paying, I spoke with the manager and explained what had occured. He was more professional than the server, but he was still dismissive of my concerns and of the service we received. Management seemed happy enough to promote the "option". The food was okay, definitely not enough to make up for the poor service and handling of a serious dietary issue. Needless to say I will not be returning.

The interior was completely packed, and the noise level was high enough for my smart watch to complain. To sample a bit of everything, we shared two orders of focaccia, four pastas, and one dessert. HOUSE-MADE FOCACCIA - 10 Super bouncy with a bit of chew, this was probably the best focaccia I've ever eaten. It came generously drizzled with olive oil and alongside chopped peppers drenched in even more olive oil, which added a nice little kick. We highly recommend starting with this. TAGLIATELLE - 27 Out of the four pastas, this was my absolute favorite. I love the thin yet chewy texture of the tagliatelle, and the bolognese sauce was rich and hearty. Finished with just the right amount of Parmigiano, both the pasta texture and sauce were sheer perfection. PICI 'CACIO E PEPE' - 23 This was such a simple pasta, yet so delicious. It was incredibly creamy and cheesy, with hints of fresh black pepper flavor that blew standard at-home black pepper grinders out of the water. Despite it being the simplest pasta of the night, I enjoyed it immensely. RIGATONI - 32 This pasta was simple yet slightly innovative, featuring sausage paired with a broccoli-based pesto. There was a slight bitterness that was polarizing among our group. While this wasn't my favorite pasta, I appreciated the creativity. PERCIATELLI NERO - 35 This dish packed in more components than just pasta and sauce: plenty of crab, tomatoes, and crispy breadcrumbs on top. However, the combination wasn't very memorable. None of the flavors really stood out, and it was my least favorite pasta of the night. OLIVE OIL CAKE - 14 Served with a pile of golden raisins and fancy whipped cream, this ended up being a bit of a miss. The raisins were a bit too sweet, and the cake's texture was uneven -- some bites were soft and moist, while others felt dry. A couple of others in my group also felt the same way. Overall, I'd give L'Artusi a 4.5/5; it was mostly hits with a couple of misses. The pasta portions are quite small. Since each dish is primarily carbs and sauce, I'd imagine you'll likely need an appetizer or a pasta and a half to leave full. Still, I'd definitely come back for the focaccia, tagliatelle, and the cacio e pepe.

    L'Artusi had been on my list for a while, so I went in with pretty high expectations. Overall, it…read morewas a very good dinner, but it didn't quite live up to the hype for me. It's obvious they use quality ingredients and the kitchen is technically very sound. The pasta in particular was cooked perfectly. Everything we had was good and well executed, but nothing really jumped out at me or felt especially memorable. There are several places around the city that I feel can deliver a similar meal and experience without quite as much hype. That's not to say I didn't enjoy L'Artusi, because I absolutely did. It just didn't separate itself from some of the other really good Italian restaurants I've visited. Service was great, the atmosphere was nice, and overall we had a very enjoyable dinner. Just one where my expectations may have been a little higher than the experience delivered.
