One of the best, most authentic Italian places in the city (seriously). Sample the salumi (love the Prosciutto San Daniele). The rigatoni w/ 9 meats made me cry. And the Pinot Noir is delish.
The salumi and charcuterie selections are a real highlight, and you can't go wrong with most of the small plates.
Salumi sampler is generously sized and delicious! Don't think you can go wrong with anything in the menu except for the cheese plate, which was mediocre at best.
Phenomenal experience here for our 10th anniversary. They brought us a special dessert for the occasion, and made the evening wonderful. The pastas and wine pairings are a top choice

Fine dining at the Hotel des Artistes.
Sit at the bar, Christie is great...happy hour prices and selection are really good. Came for the first time Wed before Thanksgiving and coming back Friday after
Fennel sausage pizza was very good and the rigatoni was cooked just right. Great complement to Mermaid Inn.
Lemon Arancini and Gnocchi!
Start with a cappuccino and croissant and then go for the smoked salmon frittata with goat cheese or the pappardelle with duck ragu, shaved chocolate and orange -- a dish that sounds odd but works. Read more.
Italian snacks like arancini, veal tartare, and grilled cuttlefish, house-made pappardelle with duck ragu, dry-aged sirloin steak. Try getting steak at the Tenement Museum. Read more.

The prosciutto here is amazing.
Octopus appetizer amazing. Pot de creme dessert divine.
The menu features a lot of grilled and roasted meats, as well as homemade pastas, salads, and charcuterie items. Appetizers are priced in the low teens, and most of the entrees are in the mid 20s. Read more.
Burrata, spring salad and rabbit cavatelli are great. So is a bottle of Rosé to help it down!
Loved the shrimp scampi and the pork chop.with fried polenta and broccoli rabe
I like this place.... Great vibes, good pizza, outside searing, and nice wine selection. Dare I call it an upper west side gem?
Great atmosphere (a bit raucous), great service and great food! Come for their pizzas – especially the Calabrese and the Pugliese – and a good selection of wines.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
