Excellent
The staff at Morandi are exceptionally warm, accommodating and professional. The food is great and prepared with a home-made (albeit superb) sensibility. I go often and never tire of the place.

Good Italian at NY
Excelent food and good prices. A little bit noisy and the seats should me more comfortable ! Remember to reserve because the place is completely full at night.

Delicious
My group ordered the rabbit ragu, pumpkin ravioli, and sea bream. All three dishes were delicious. Atmosphere was comfortable and chic, and service was attentive. No complaints. Great experience.

Eh. Nothing to write home about...
If you do go here, you HAVE to try the meatballs. they are fantastic. They have pine nuts and raisins (sounds strange, I know - just trust me on this) in a delicious marinara sauce. Started with the Ensalate Verde which, although good, was only about 10 pieces of lettuce in some red wine vinnaigrete. For my entree I had the Grilled Sea Bream which was a light white fish in olive oil and capers. Decent, nothing great - but the size of the entrees was not impressive by any means. Value is not great here at all but the food is...well...'eh'. Take it or leave it.

Get us in and Rush us out
What a wonderful and fun looking restaurant! Enjoyed going in and sitting down at a window table fairly early in the evening. Could see what was happening on the street and could take in the atmospheric ambiance of Morandi - which was great. The waiter was in a bit of a rush for us to take our order. The food took a little while but that was fine as it was quite delicious although the portions were quite tiny especially for the price. During the meal a bus lady kept coming over wanting to take away plates that still had some food. Finally I told her not to come back again. Just as we barely finished the last bite the waiter came over and asked if we would like anything more which we did not. The check came quickly and we paid and left. Especially at a nice looking place like this, we like to relax and take in the surroundings. Loved the food and food and ambiance, but would not come back here again.

sadly disappointed
Was looking forward to fabulous spaghetti carbonara and was sadly disappointed; not enough pancetta, dry pasta and definitely was not creamy enough. Porchetta sandwich was oily yet the meat was dry and not crunchy. Salad was so salty

not worth it
entrees are highly priced and come bare on the plate. no vegetable, nothing extra. 2 entrees, one vegetable, a small caraffe of wine, and nothing else - no coffee, no appetizer, no desert - will set you back about $130-$140 and you will still be hungry. its not worth it for dinner. stick to lunch/brunch, or go somewhere thats really worth these prices.
