NEIGHBORLY NOTARY NYCJanuary 6, 2013
The wine selection is ideal and paired well with my meal. A 10 out of 10 experience for me. I had one of the daily specials and it was fresh and delicious. Service was prompt & courteous.

An Upper West staple. Margherita pizza is the standard order, but do a favor and hit the specials. Crab, avocado and parmesan salad is beyond amazing.

My Wife and I loved the Avacado and Arugula salad with Mozzarella cheese. We also had the Margahrita Pizza. I heard the Passion Fruit juice was good too.

I absolutely love the pizza here! Any of them are wonderful and I love the thin crust!

While we love the neighborhoody feel and the homemade food (Pizza with Prosciutto & Fig or Lasagne) the service can ruin your experience.

The bread is really good, they serve an excellent chianti. The sauce is exceptional and the meatballs are fine.

The chicken soup is to die for! The smell permeates the air around the front of the restaurant. You can't miss it!

It's always nice to find a neighborhood restaurant that tastes good and is well priced. Pizzas especially 😋

The bolognese pasta was honestly the best I've ever had. The pizza is average. TRY THE PASTA!!!!
Clau OrozcoApril 6, 2013
I had Ricotta cheese pancakes and were good, however everybody says the French toast is the best!

Order the Gorgonzola and Sliced Pear Pizza! Simply out of this world!

Good wine selection, can't go wrong with any of the daily specials.
Mark LombardiSeptember 28, 2014
Good food, healthy options. Outside seating can be a bit crowded.
Cheapeats IncSeptember 24, 2011
Girly spot for lunch or a glass of wine. Cute waiters too. Don't forget the tiramisu.
Jade Bailey-AssamNovember 2, 2012
They add an auto 20% gratuity even though the service is less than stellar. Also, it's cash only but they give you your check in an American Express check presenter. Fail!!

Good food, attentive service, cute waiters... What more could you ask for??
Sam CallahanSeptember 4, 2013
Terrific wine and great spot to people watch!

The calzone is enough for two and was delicious!
NicoleMarch 9, 2014
Unimpressive whether dining in or ordering (very delayed) delivery. Desserts are better than the savory dishes.
Andy BonventreFebruary 22, 2013
The coat hangers are weaker than in other, similar establishments. BEWARE.
Frank Sorrentino IIIMarch 24, 2013
Try the pizzas with whole wheat... awesome..
Omayma Al yaseenMay 24, 2013
French Toast is the best u can ever eat
Don GaileApril 3, 2010
Came for dessert and it was great. Apple tart was spongy delicious. Cappuccino was foamy good.
Eliza BethApril 19, 2013
The cheese plate was good but the butternut squash ravioli and lasagna were hella hella salty. Service.... Well tolerable. Def not recommend.
Jeffrey ThompsonJune 9, 2011
Good Focaccias, but a bit skimpy, oh & the sodas are really small!
JoAnne KaoOctober 23, 2015
Love the pasta and pizza here
Angelique VandebroekJanuary 11, 2017
Super tuna tartare!
Victor PriceSeptember 10, 2013
Small tables and on top of each other and food is a 6. Way too loud for a restaurant of only 16 tables inside.
SabrinaJune 3, 2012
Add a splash of red to the persecco sangria to make it a rose
Alex SongSeptember 27, 2010
The pizzas here are excellent. Crepe cake for dessert!
Faith McCormickAugust 15, 2010
Been here 10+ times
The prosciutto & fig pizza is a slice of heaven.
Caroline DodelinAugust 31, 2013
Pizza Brunch and people watching.
Daniel CorreaDeToledoJuly 24, 2011
Been here 10+ times
Try the scrambled egg focaccia with truffle oil.....amazing!
Laura O.May 10, 2013
Worst pizza I've had in my life whoever said the prosciutto with fig was a piece of heaven can't imagine hell It's a piece of carton
Jade Bailey-AssamNovember 2, 2012
Food is ok, they don't do well with altered orders. The worst part is the service. Skip this place and go to another charming UWS restaurant instead.
Lauren HassanAugust 18, 2014
Good people watching
Daan V.April 21, 2010
Order one of the focaccias - they're delicious.
Jennifer BoardmanJuly 4, 2010
Chicken and veal meatballs were a hit at our table.
Minda AJuly 14, 2012
Had disappointing, bland pasta here. I hear other dishes are better, but there are so many other places on UWS.
Caye DreissJune 9, 2011
Great food. Uncomfortable seating.
Kelly GovekarNovember 8, 2011
cramped space and slow service with food (and portions) that don't make up for it.
Mark MSeptember 17, 2011
This was once the location of the great P&G.
Dave LinOctober 7, 2012
They pretty much ran out of everything...
Mathieu ThouveninApril 7, 2013
Bad service and really small portions for the price. Just okay food. Not recommended.
Kashif ZafarDecember 10, 2010
Do NOT get the Lasagna Bolognese
Kevin VerzosaJune 16, 2011
Don't get the pull man bread panani. It's so small with nothing inside. Not worth 9$
Zachary Adam CohenFebruary 15, 2010
No organic milk? No local milk? This place so overwhelms.
Tiffany KathrynJuly 7, 2011
Do NOT come here. Overpriced dishes with barley any food on them! Ridiculous.
Ruby NMay 6, 2012
