    Delicious

    Sure there are probably better Italian restaurants in NYC, but this one is up there. The pasta is among the freshest I've ever had in NY, and the signature dish (the first one on the menu) is absolutely amazing. Simple, but rich and yummy. Prices are a little high but once in a while it's worth it. Service was impeccable, so perhaps other reviewers were there on an off night. Also, ask about their wine specials so you can taste a really expensive glass for a portion of the price.

    poor service

    This was my first visit, and will absolutely be last. From the start when the Maitre'D tried to shove three of us in the corner of a two top, to the slow service (an hour between salad and entree), and ending with a fight with the manager, it was a subpar experience. I am not one to ever call over a manager or complain about food/service. But we waited so long between courses that I just had to say something. The manager was so rude, mentioning that "we Americans" have too high of standards for service. Quote from manager, "this is an Italian restaurant, not an American restaurant... if you don't like the service don't come back." I won't.

    real Italian, but...

    This is a real Italian restaurant, run by Italians (owner and several on the waiting staff). The food is certainly good, but their pasta sauces tend to be "americanized," i.e. too much sauce on which the pasta floats. Still, a good find. If you like cheese and pepper, then try the dish that gives name to the restaurant. But be warned, it ain't light fare...

    Great Food but service needs work

    Had a delicious authentic meal but service was subpar. Clearly the waitress forgot to put our entree order in which could have been overlooked if they handled it right. Barely an apology and nothing offered to make amends. Obviously, management doesn't care.

    AWESOME

    Came here with a friend on a whim and we were both floored by the food. Loved the namesake dish, pear salad, clam stew & lamb chops (lamb not as good on second visit). Space was cramped. Staff was warm and friendly.

    Homemade pasta to remember

    Nothing really fancy, just truly delicious homemade pasta. As good as I have ever had. Will be back - maybe today!

    almost italy

    I went for dinner with a friend on a rainy winter day and this restaurant made it well worth leaving the house. The food was delicious, the wine (we picked the Monticatini) was beyond excellent, and terrific service without being overdone or annoying. I'll definilty go back
