- Nina YiamsamathaFebruary 1, 2015To drink: the Fiori is their take on a floral negroni, and it is perfect. To eat: start with the tuna tartare cecina (tuna in a chickpea crepe), followed by the tortellini and guajillo chicken
- Ben K.July 12, 2015Great coastal Italian from Torrisi & Carbone. Get the tuna cecina, squash carpaccio, fritto misto, Santina pasta, crab spaghetti, and finish with the cannoli trio.
- Tanasha SAugust 22, 2016The moment you step into Santina you are transported to Italy. It's a beautifully decorated restaurant. Very lively atmosphere. The drinks are fantastic. The coconut iced coffee is must try!
- EaterDecember 14, 2015Santina is the last of the three spots awarded best restaurant of 2015. The place is a Renzo Piano-designed glass cube, a human terrarium whose interior evokes the Amalfi Coast circa 1953.
- tt tuAugust 20, 2016Such a fun and vibrant restaurant, it is a great escape from New York and to the Italian Coast Line. The rice bowls for brunch, those cocktails, and the atomosphere. I love this place.
- emily chenMay 3, 2015same guys as torrisi/carbone/zz's. and they strike again! get a cecina (that smoky spicy sauce is to die for), squash carpaccio and tortellini. cocktails are legit. place gets packed so make a resy.
- AmateurConciergeAugust 10, 2015Solid but def the baby of the MajorFood Group. Strong: chicken, squash carpaccio, Overrated: tuna cecina (not bad tho), Wack: spaghetti pomodoro. $16 cocktails are a bit much. Beautiful dining space
- Incredible! Get the tuna & avocado cecinas to start. Put them together w/the salsa verde. The most amazing tortellini & the rigatoni next and followed by the delish chicken. Tricolor cannoli FTW.
- Noah WeissNovember 3, 2015Great vibe and tasty food for brunch (with reservations!). Tuna cecina, rigatoni, and coconut iced coffee were winners.
- This is one of the most beautifully decorated restaurants. Start with a Cecina (chickpea pancake), then artichokes and grapes, fritto misto, pastas, steak, sea bass and cannollis to finish
- The Corcoran GroupFebruary 10, 2015The latest restaurant from Major Food Group certainly doesn't disappoint. Be sure to order the tuna cecina, the Rigatoni Norma, and the chicken, and wash it all down a delicious signature cocktail.
- Jeff PetrielloSeptember 4, 2016Incredibly expensive, but adorable. The grilled mushrooms are so yummy and the outdoor seating is lovely in the summertime.
- Meg FarmerJuly 28, 2015I'm still on the fence about decor-but food is outstanding. Cocktail: View from Positano- fav of our group; & then we split a ton of food. Top dishes: Tuna Cecina, Fritto misto & canoli trio.
- hania albraikanMarch 24, 2018The menu is confusing, but the food is really delicious, the atmosphere is brilliant sure i will come again and I highly recommend it for couples or groups.
- MrsCorksterJanuary 27, 2016Lively atmosphere, yummy cocktails, great service and an awesome gluten-free selection make this more than a brunch option. Definitely good for festive dinners. Love the look and feel, too.
- Julia ChoyFebruary 27, 2016We had the spicy tuna cecina, squash carpaccio, for mains we had the swordfish and chicken. All were excellent except the swordfish. Chicken was surprisingly juicy and tender and I would have again

- Celena ChanJune 12, 2015The chickpea flatbread with the lamb tartar and squash carpaccio were definitely the standouts of our meal. Be sure to use that mole sauce on everything!
- Guest of a GuestMay 30, 2018"My go-to for cocktails and date night with my hubby. The Chickpea Avocado “Cecina” and the Squash Carpaccio are absolute musts!" - Nathalie Rhone Read more
- One of the best spots for summer outdoor dining. Lots of small plate options, great drinks, amazing people watching and just steps from the Highline and the Whitney.
- The tuna cecina is a MUST along with the 2 sauces. Also loved the octopus spiedini. Pastas are great. Avoid the chicken. A scene!!

- DianaAugust 31, 2015While away the dog days with good drinks, food, and vibes at this fun and sophisticated spot. Tuna cecina (aka socca) is light, spicy, delicious. Must also order the coconut iced coffee.
- In NYCSeptember 7, 2015We really enjoyed the raw fish dishes which were colorful and flavorful. The appetizer chick pea pancakes are fantastic. Must start with them and go from there.
- Sit at the bar, order the Sicilian red, get the tortellini and the crab spaghetti, then the chicken. Go home happy and full
- Sarp ErkayaMay 7, 2015Feels like you found a piece of summer resort right at meat packing. I would recommend for lunch for great cocktails and italian food that somehow feels latin american!
- Lindsay CApril 21, 2016One of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time! You must order the Tuna and/or Avocado Cecina (chickpea pancake)! Both are delicious!
- Cole KennedySeptember 25, 2016Stunning space & atmosphere. I'll chime in with another vote for the squash carpaccio, and add the rigatoni alla norma. Skip the arugula salad, though.
- Sonya SinghJanuary 13, 2016Everyone says it and it's true - tuna cecina and squash carpaccio are must-orders. The cocktails are amazingly balanced and delicious, take your pick.
- Renaud #April 20, 2019A good casual spot, perfect for groups. Their fish main courses are on point: branzino 👌🏻

- aanwarSeptember 25, 2016Brunch: Cecina with Fish Truffle! This place also is very beautiful and has Amalfi Coast vibes.
- dawn.in.newyorkNovember 16, 2015Avocado Trapanese was significantly good. Blue crab pasta seemed very popular, and the desserts were very satisfying.
- julia tMay 12, 2015Ambiance a bit meatpacking, but otherwise fantastic. Great service and delicious, big, fresh salads. Delicious ceviche as well. Kid friendly at lunch.

- JillianOctober 12, 2016Returned for dinner - salads are totally underrated (go kale) and the butternut squash carpaccio is a great sweet/savory starter
- The cuci? (top thing- forgot what it's called) with avocado is fabulous and bough for lunch. The arugula and fig salad is fabulous
- Sarah BrinkSeptember 23, 2016Squash carpaccio. Get it. Get it. One of my favourite meals in the city. Everything here was fantastic.
- Chad HornerMarch 27, 2016the breakfast sandwich is a bit greasier than it needs to be (and pricier, at $23!) but the spicy potatoes are a revelation
- Elliot WehnerApril 26, 2015Get the tuna cecina and make sure to use the tomato sofrito heavily (soooo good). The punch in the pineapple cup is tasty and fun
- Kate FurmanJune 21, 2015Try the Tuna cecina, crab spaghetti and the chicken. It's a really fun place to dine.
