David Weissler: Hotdogs are on the kids menu and you can spike your shake "by yourself."
Tom V: You can compose your own burger here. Plenty of combinations possible. We loved our combination :-) Great place!

Petar Ivanov: Pros: Good sangria, friendly place good for families and groups of friends. Cons: It looks like it's made in a basement, kinda dark and not really comfortable. Not much choice on the menu either.
Greg Avola: Try the Juanita's Chicken - it's amazing. It's really moist, and has awesome flavor.
Joe Serrano: Matador combo...hands down...best deal. Share with 1 (maybe 2?) other people. Get the sangria... it's pricey but strong and good!

Brook Frazier: Everything EVERYTHING - eat everything! But specifically, eat the Schmores cookie
Katherine Mullis: They charge the same for small, large, and medium teas. Why? Because more water doesn't cost anything. OMG. Why did I never think of this before. And does Starbucks know this?
Jonathan Lovitz: Never have I ever had a better cookie in my life!!!!!! Try the red velvet, peanut butter, and maple-bacon-- you won't regret it! The best staff and an owner of any bakery in New York City!

Italian Restaurant · Hell's Kitchen · 29 tips and reviews
Eric Grant: Fantastic food, drinks and service. Our neighborhood definitely needed this kind of upscale restaurant.
Michael Fox-Rabinovitz: Loved the staff, actually main guys are truly Italian. Nice wine menu. Appetizers octopus and meatballs are nice, calamari ok. Had rigatoni with short rib, not too special, dessert was ok.
Olga Zhukova: Try octopus salad. Perfectly done!
John: The pizza is phenomenal, atmosphere is great, everyone is very friendly and inexpensive for lunch.
Adam Kuban: Get the Montanara pizza, which has a deep-fried crust. This is one of the only places in the city (let alone the U.S.) that serves it. Fear the fried? Get the Pistacchio e Salsiccia pizza.
Leah Taylor: Why isn't this place at the top of every "best pizza place" list? Honestly, I've been to Patsy's, Lombardi's, etc. this pizza is superior.

Alex Casariego: Aside from the phenomenal baked goods, they have the best grilled cheese
Serious Eats: One of NYC's best all-around bakeries, from the breads, to the cakes and cookies, to the sandwiches.
