Elevine BergeAugust 31, 2014Finally found a place to get radicchio served as good as when living in Italy - the Treviso was perfect <3 The daily cocktails are great too. Lovely service and ambience both inside and out front.
Louise ContinoMarch 4, 2016Best food n Fort Greene, hands down. They do it right here, with menu changes daily and truly authentic Italian food cooked with soul power. Elegant, understated, well executed.- Favorite neighborhood spot. Menu changes daily. Some recent favorites: wilted spinach in duck broth over croutons with pecorino & chicken diavolo. Great wine list particularly if you love orange wine.
VictoriaApril 4, 2017The food is soooo good! It can get crowded most nights, so expect a wait, pass the time at Alibi across the street for a good dive bar before your upscale dinner ;)
IndieWhereAugust 10, 2014Want a great drink? Ask Ryan, he'll hook you up. Calling this place pricey would imply it wasn't worth every penny and it is! You me...wine is important to me and it's important to them as well! Do it
Great service and always interesting and delicious wines by the glass. Love to sit at the bar for brunch or dinner.
Vivian RamirezFebruary 16, 2017VDay menu was a great range of well done food. Very romantic and festively themed. Attentive staff and service. A bit snug and dark. Great for small special group dinners.
Gino M.January 10, 2014Great take on modern Italian, with an American flair and organic ingredients. Attention to detail; pasta is really al dente here, not under/overcooked. Cosy atmosphere and impeccable service to boot!
The Corcoran GroupAugust 18, 2011Chocolate Sorbet: New York Magazine described this as 'more like a refreshingly cold ganache, a looser pot de crème, or an artisanal Fudgsicle'. Absolutely incredible!
saturday beach day: ride to and fort tilden, hot shower, aperol spritz, and sit out front at Romans for dinner with friends. the best. 🙌
Brynna TuckerAugust 7, 2014Everything here is great. The menu changes often, and the staff are extremely knowledgable about food, wine, and drinks. I go more often that I'd like to admit :)- Holly MooreNovember 1, 2014The chocolate sorbet is the best chocolate anything I've ever had. Really.
Kevin SkobacJanuary 16, 2016Menu changes daily, so not much point in recommendations. Everything Ive eaten, especially pastas, has been delicious. Portions are smaller than expected, though.
Jared RanereSeptember 20, 2017Great service.... The server explained every item on the menu. All food choices were excellent. Great cocktails. Can't go wrong here.
Annie LyJune 22, 2016menu changes daily. great options all around, they come up with wonderfully unique, tasty dishes - even their apps and salads.- Try the Maccheroni With Pork Sausage And Rapini - As always, pasta was perfectly cooked and dish was perfectly balanced. A light stock supported the flavors beautifully.
- Try the Chicken Al Diavolo - Perfectly cooked, with fresh vegetables. I've never had this with fresh tomatoes instead of sauce; made a huge difference. Wow.
Ms HeleneNovember 5, 2016Everything has flavor and freshness. Radicchio salad, calamari chickpea pasta and scallops aioli. Expect to wait.
MariNovember 5, 2015Menu changes daily, but everything is amazing. Try a couple of the pastas. You won't be disappointed.
Audrey TolbertMarch 7, 2016The food is great, the wine is great, and the service is great. And they're gratuity free. But I still have to say it was overpriced...
RJ DuganSeptember 5, 2013Go with light dishes so you can order more plates than just one or two. Fantastic dinner spot. Great wine options (including organic wines).- Try the Baked Egg With Minestrone And Pesto - Hearty, with lots of fresh, seasonal veggies. Felt #healthy & absolutely #delicious. #perfection #inmymouth
- Try the Pork Sandwich - I could eat this every day. Served with anchovy dressing & chicory on a fluffy, lightly grilled olive oil bun. #perfection
Jenna Wortham December 29, 2011Love that they have two special cocktails each night - the "sour" and the "bitter." ( I alwaze get the sour ☺)
Mike FraiettaFebruary 1, 2013I mean, it's pretty damn good, but if you're rarely in Fort Greene I'd suggest a-bistro or madiba first if you haven't tried them yet.- Try the Spaghetti With Canelli Beans, Herbs And Tomato - Light, blissfully fresh and perfectly cooked. A light stock supported the flavors beautifully.
- Fodor's TravelSeptember 9, 2015When weather permits, request one of the candlelit alfresco tables: There's no better perch from which to soak up the Fort Greene scene. Read more
CompassMay 2, 2014The Italian restaurant offers killer cuts of beef and you can always count on the ingredient-driven menu to change nightly.
Menu changes everyday and never disappoints. 1 starter, 1 main and 1 salad is perfect for two
Tiffany SteffensApril 2, 2013Loved the bucatini carbonara & the salted dark chocolate sorbet was amazing!!
Alex HunterJanuary 23The pinnacle of cozy! Really friendly and informative staff. Don’t skip the arncini or the chocolate sorbet.
Melissa FudorFebruary 1, 2013Get the Chicken Al Diavolo if its on the menu - it's completely worth it, trust me. Enough for two people.
Sarah ChartonSeptember 30, 2011Beyond delicious. The chocolate sorbet is to die for, and the service is wonderful.
Alex NathansonSeptember 3, 2016Simple spaghetti and Tomato dish is where it's at. Forgot just good it can be.
Alexander GregoryAugust 8, 2014The food changes daily but is always excellent. The pasta dishes are always a great choice
Village VoiceAugust 4, 2014- Try the Smoked Bluefish With Poached Egg And Charmoula - Perfectly balanced, fish skin slightly crispy, wow.
Justin DeanOctober 10, 2016I've never paid so much money to eat so little (albeit decent) food. If you live nearby step in and buy a loaf -- it's the only fair meal here.
Waitstaff is amazing. Food is fresh and delicious every single day....- Try the Cardamom Walnut Cake - Like a cup of chai on a plate. A little dry, but delicious.
Daniel ChangDecember 31, 2015The sazerac is incredible. Menu rotates often but I'm never disappointed.- Try the Shakshouka - Excellent baked egg over tomato, red and green pepper sauce.
- Try the Spaghetti Carbonara - Light, al dente, perfect pancetta. I'll take another one, please.
Sam GilMay 13, 2018Twice cooked egg, and ragu were great. Chicken piccata was nice but not worth the price for me. As an Aussie, no tip structure is nice
