Chelsea Balkan: #FabuLIST #DubiDO if I had to rank the pastas #1 spaghetti #2 garganelli, #3 pici, #4 bucatini. For appetizers get the ricotta special and roasted mushrooms. For wine we loved the Dezzi
Alison Katz Danes: One of my favorite restaurants in NYC!
Noah Weiss: Sneaky good brunch. Pastries baked in-house, solid egg dishes, and some great pasta if you need to eat off a hangover. Double bonus points for taking reservations.

Gus Borrmann: Fried Rabbit and the Steak (burger). Try to seat outside and enjoy the lively street.
Eater: Fried rabbit, crispy artichokes, and fresh fruit are on the menu at this new restaurant from the West Village power couple. It's sort of a French bar meets an Italian country home. Read more.
Noah Weiss: The Buvette chef's take on rustic Italian small plates with rustic West Village decor. Equally tasty, great value ($90 dinner for two with wine), and the perfect date spot. Crostini are all great.

Zeba Siddiqi: Cosy, ideal date restaurant. Try the truffle mac & cheese , tortellini with creamy sauce & prosciutto. For desserts Tiramisu is yummilicious!
Noah Weiss: New Italian small plates spot from the Aria team, perfect for a date with the same great value and even more cozy than the original. Burrata, lamb, all the pastas including bucatini, creme brûlée.
Elyse Estrada: New favorite! Bruce the manager is a gem! Get the burrata (always a special app), kale salad, spaghetti polpetti, tortellini w/cream sauce. Pair it w/a bottle of Super Tuscan & finish w/bread pudding!

Annie Jeng: The cauliflower appetizer is amazing. If it's not on the menu, ask for it - they'll make it for you. For the main course, the mushroom truffle fettuccine is the best!
Tim Vetter: Try the restaurant where Lady Gaga, just barely pre-fame, worked as a waitress. (The staff famously made her cry)
Rewan Parti: Sit in the back garden, order the calamari with mint leaves and cauliflower appetizer. Along with spinach and buffalo cheese ravioli! Do try the tiramisu.

Sonal U: The fennel salad and spaghetti alla chitara (not on the menu - from the malatesta menu) are delicious. I will try the pizza next time! More trendy ambiance than malatesta but the wait is much shorter.
Abigail R: It's saaaahhhh goood to be back home
Elyse Estrada: Total hidden gem. Great pastas and super cute ambiance. Servers aren't always on their A game so speak up if your bottle of wine is empty. CASH ONLY. there's an ATM that only charges &1.50 by the loo

Annie Tolochinski: Great pasta at this romantic dinner date spot. Snag a table outside and enjoy this quite corner in the west village, away from it all, it actually feels like you traveled to Italy.
Tiffany S: My favorite Italian neighborhood joint in NY. Best dish on the menu: spaghetti alla chitarra -- it does not get better than this.
Manisha Johary: Spinach gnocchi in Gorgonzola sauce is amazing!!

Dave: Social brunch is an economically sensible way to spend your Sunday afternoon
stephanie scheper: Probably the best meal I've had in 2014. Amazing ambiance & cocktails - loved the prosciutto prawns, kale caesar salad, duck carbonara and the capicola pizza!
The Corcoran Group: Delicious and unique options offered with the all you can drink brunch special. If you're really feeling dangerous, order the prosecco tray at an additional cost to make your own brunch cocktails.
