    Spicy chicken. Pass
    Mark F.

    If I'm being honest, this is more of a 3.5 stars spot. First off, I like the ambiance. It has an old school vibe of an Italian restaurant but clean and spacious. In a city like NY, it's not common to find a place that provides space where you don't feel like the people next to you can hear everything you're talking about. We had a newer waiter so the service was somewhat uneven but he was nice enough and I'm sure he will improve. The drinks were so-so. I got an old fashioned and it was passable at best. Don't come here for drinks unless you're having wine. The food was good, not great. It's a high bar in NYC because NY Italian is the best in the US IMHO. The pizza and pasta were great. The pizza had a nice crust and the sauce was flavorful without being overpowering. We added sausage which added a nice spice to the pizza. The spaghetti with small meatballs was great. Perfectly cooked pasta. The sauce was nicely balanced in terms of acidity, salt, and sweetness. The meatballs were savory and elevated the dish. The spicy chicken was average. The flavors almost were spur, the sausage was crumbly and dry. I regretted getting this dish. We also got the pork chop. Alsp pretty bland and a very average pork chop. It was probably a tad over cooked as well. All in all, I would come back for their pasta and pizza but I wouldn't eat anything else.

    What a gastronomically beautiful experience! We were in the city from Texas and were recommended this restaurant by a local. Service was spectacular! The food incredible! We never felt rushed. All the servers were helpful. My wine was delicious. I took a cannoli to go and enjoyed it thoroughly later at our hotel. Loved it here!

    Visit this place for restaurant week but kinda disappointed. The food taste pretty plain and the salad is just like something i can make by myself. the duck leg is not tender and the risotto is too sweet. the dessert is not good at all so I didn't take a photo. don't order the cheesecake cuz it's not even cheesecake...the server is also weird cuz he laugh at me when Im trying to pack other food. not a good experience at all.

    We came here one night after checking Yelp for reviews and we had a very nice dinner. The service was attentive and good by Giulio, the table we had by the window gave us a good view of folks walking (and less noise than was going on elsewhere in the restaurant ). We had the chicken parmigiano and chicken capreses - one irritating thing. I asked why no pasta with it so Guilio said he'd make sure I had some. Yes, to the tune of $14, which he did not tell me. The food was tasty and fairly big portions. Espresso was very good.

    Zero Otto Nove is a good spot for Italian, especially if you have a big group! We were seated upstairs in a quiet little nook of the restaurant. The servers were a bit overbearing - I didn't particularly like how they served every dish to us, especially because I didn't get to take my Yelp photo of the dish before! haha ... the waitress also came over to ask how the food was before I had even taken a bite. She also stood by our table for the majority of the meal, and with only another table there in that little upstairs nook it was a bit awkward. She was a bit too much, but maybe that is their thing there (to serve each dish). The Radiatori in Cartoccio ($30 - Radiatori pasta cooked in tinfoil with porcini mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, breadcrumbs & shaved parmigiana Reggiano) was pretty delicious - the Veal ($48) you could either have it as parmigiana, breaded & pan fried with tomato sauce & mozzarella -or- Grilled with broccoli rabe & sweet cherry peppers. We chose the grilled as it was healthier and it was pretty good, but a bit too salty. Overall a good Italian restaurant - minus the pushy servers.

    Lively Italian restaurant in Chelsea located near everything. Service was amazing. Our waitress was on top of it and so friendly. They had tons of specials. Cocktails were great! We started with the eggplant & zucchini parmesan which was delicious. I had the risotto special which was disappointing and bland.

    I was in the area and hungry, so I stopped in here randomly without checking reviews or google. We all need to do that more often! This is an Italian place. They have several selections of pizza (Margherita, caprese, Napoletana, and more). They also have a large antipasti section (grilled octopus, sautéed short ribs, burrata, a fave bean dish, roasted peppers, eggplant and zucchini and more). Typical salads (lots of arugula and goat cheese). A secondi course as well (dug, short ribs, chicken, steak, salmon, veal, pork chops). I went straight to the pasta section because I was craving carbs. I was torn between three dishes, including the rigatoni salernitana (meatballs, sopressata, ricotta, mozzarella, sliced egg, tomato sauce), the cacio e Pepe dish, and the radiatori in cartoccio. The cartoccio is their signature dish, therefore my server recommended it on my first time dining with them. A radiatori pasta made in tinfoil with porcini mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, breadcrumbs, and parmigiana, it was decadent, cheesy, and flavorful. I don't regret my choice, as I may never have the chance to have this again in another restaurant, but next time I definitely want that savory, sumptuous sounding rigatoni! Service was over the top. Freddie was my main server, and checked on me multiple times. He made me great drinks (I just had him surprise me each time with whatever he wanted to concoct). Multiple other servers, all handsome, magnetic, and gregarious, all checked on me. All of them called me Bella and wanted to make sure everything was to my liking. The prices here are extremely reasonable, especially given it's in midtown Manhattan/flatiron district. The food comes in huge portions, the service is amazing. This Bella would not hesitate to stop by here again.

    The wife and I definitely need to come back to Zero Otto Nove, only her and I. Brought the kids here and their friends for some pizza. I think we need a date night without them. Definitely not just pizza. The pizza was great. Can't complain about it. It was just not the pizza that we expected for New York City pizza with the kids. I guess it wasn't what I expected for a NYC pizza! Service was outstanding, everyone was very nice.

    Chicken Pollo Parmigiana All Vodka

    Unexpectedly fell upon this place on a Tuesday after work one day and walked in. We had a really good experience and the server was nice and attentive. The inside is pretty big and I'd imagine a good place if you have a larger party. The chicken parm with vodka was good (it's just the chicken so need to order a separate pasta which I thought was a bit odd). The Bucatini Cacio e Pepe con Carciofi was solid. Weirdly enough I think it would be better with a protein instead of artichokes. The Salumi e Formaggi is good for a larger group. Overall it was good - just missing "something" and in NYC there is no shortage of really good Italian so in good faith can't give more than an average 3.

    Fettuccine truffle special. Awesome
    Matt G.

    Great italian resturant in the lower Manhattan with a very cool Tuscan cave vibe. Had a delicious chesse and truffle ravioli dish for dinner and split a brick oven pie was equally as good. Service was super friendly and they were very accommodating with kids. Highly recommend if your in the area.

    Ravioli special
    Anatoli L.

    I'm surprised that I never wrote a review for this restaurant until now, as this is not my first visit. First of all, if you like wine, this is the place for you. The wine list contains lots of great Italian wine selections, many of the bottles with a nice age on them and even then without breaking the bank. We had a beautiful 2001 brunello with our dinner and it was priced very reasonably considering the age and pedigree. And then the food, of course. Quintessential Italian. Fresh bread was served with the most delicious olive oil. We ordered Margarita Pizza to share, and it was just excellent. Grilled octopus was one of the very best I ever had. And Fava beans appetizer was delightful as well. I had ravioli special as my main course and almost licked the plate afterwards. Prompt, friendly, attentive service. Highly recommended.

    My partner and I have been to the Bronx location before and we were delighted that the Manhattan location is just as good. The pasta was cooked perfectly and the menu has some unique regional dishes that you won't find in most Italian restaurants.

    What time is Happy hour and is it only at the bar?

    It is from 5:00pm to 7:00pm and it is offered at the bar only.

    What days of the week and time is HH? Drink specials only, or food deals as well?

    Only M-F. I believe it's food and drinks.

    Do they have gluten free options?

    No they were very rude to me about it too. I asked for the fish in the foil (it's always on the menu) and I knew it wouldn't be a problem. Apparently I was wrong. The wait staff was all young people and not the regular wait staff that had been there… 

    Does the restaurant let you bring in strollers for lunch?

    It's a big place, it would not be an issue.

    Best gluten-free pizza I have ever had. [Full Stop]…read more I've had a lot of GF pizza. I've tried to come here in the past -- but it didn't work out. I ordered via Uber Eats this time, and MAN -- I was blown away. I honestly thought that they had screwed up and sent me a gluten version. I checked the order and receipt. It was so good -- the crust so chewy with bite -- but light and airy and tight -- the cheese and toppings all great and fresh and delicious. It tasted like an awesome piece of NYC pizza. I was so happy. I did some Claude sleuthing -- and think I'm onto their magic with the crust -- and am excitedly going to experiment in my home kitchen in the coming weeks (Neapolitan oven, be damned!).

Located at 309 West 50th Street in New York City's Hell's Kitchen neighborhood, the casual eatery has an extensive list of pizzas. Don Antonio has over 30 types of Neapolitan pizzas, and the menu is a little bit daunting at first due to so many options, but even the pickiest eater will find something they'll want to eat. To top that off, Caporuscio recently debuted a brand new pizza tasting menu that features a curated lineup of never-before-seen pizza napoletana, and seven varieties of pizza fritta (fried pizza). Lastly, the entire pizza menu is now available gluten-free. With vast offerings, they are ambitious, and every dish is outstanding.

RIGHT BY THE DOOR. Do people not realize that putting a bar near a door on a freezing cold night benefits no one? Good thing I did not order alcohol or I would have froze to death. Seriously, none of the pies stood out in grand memory. All I can think of is, well, nothing. Nothing positive anyway. The names of the pies are funny, and the staff is friendly, but besides that, the quality of the food for lack of a better word, dare I say it, sucks. Hoping to salvage the meal, I ordered their Chicken Parmesan. It was the Hail Mary pass that unfortunately did not connect. The cutlets are overcooked and dry, and the red sauce cooked with it has minimal tomato flavor. At least the spaghetti is cooked to a nice al dente and mellow garlic butter flavor, but like the sauce cooked in, it is also minimal. Part of the problem I feel is they are trying to go for a vibe that has a New York and modern feel. It does not work. Stay true to one or the other. Or at least look at other business models. I will use another pizzeria in Bushwick that exemplifies it perfectly. It is a hipster pizzeria in a hipster neighborhood. Through balance, it creates an ambiance both welcoming and warm without losing any of its Bushwick character. It does this by not beating you over the head with hipster vibes, just enough to let you know that you are in Bushwick. The band Franz Ferdinand was playing as I was wrapping up. Rather than take the pizza out, I suggest you throw it out. Overall pizza rating: 1.7/5

The first thing you notice is the main bar wall, with its exposed centuries-old brick that has survived every bit of chaos this city could throw at it. It's subtly backlit from with a warm, amber glow that highlights every single historic groove and imperfection, making the whole room look like it's breathing. I have to say the centerpiece of the entire narrow room is the bar itself, and let me tell you, it is an absolute stunner of a contrast. Instead of the usual dark, sticky tavern wood, they've dropped in a long, continuous slab of pristine, elegantly smooth white stone. It glows under the soft lighting like a block of polished marble. There are no strobe lights and no obnoxious, skull-rattling bass in this joint. Instead, the room is wrapped in a blanket of incredibly chill music that matches the pulse of the room perfectly. It's just loud enough to drown out the noise in your own head, but quiet enough that you don't have to scream over the smooth white counter to be heard. People aren't here to be seen on TikTok; they're here to disappear for an hour or three. You slide into a chair, order a proper Old Fashioned from a bartender who doesn't rush the pour, and watch the ice melt against the amber-lit brick. It's the ultimate underground exhale--a perfect, narrow slice of peace in a city that never shuts up. Cheers!
