Pinocchio Ristorante

A delightfully charming and friendly find! The owners' welcoming hospitality, ambience, and great food (many interesting choices on the menu and on the chalkboard specials) make for a memorable evening. A salad special and Fettuccine Pinocchio were delicious, as was the house Montepulciano. Although satisfied and overstuffed, I couldn’t resist ordering a cannoli, having heard another patron rave about it - perfection! BRAVISSIMO, Mark and Regina!

Everytime I go, I get a warm welcome. The place is small, but cozy. The food is consistantly good and the service great. Some of the tables are a bit too close together. It is fine when you are sitting but takes creativity to get up.

The food is really good and the price is ok, but I tried to order a chicken parm for delivery at lunch time and the guy told me that it would be better if I called them at dinner time. It was weird because it seemed like they were delivering, but he only didn't take my order because it wasn't worth the money I would pay for a single chicken parm. Funny thing is that I was planning to go there for dinner with some friends, but I'm not going anymore, so they probably lost more than 100 bucks on the same day with that foolishness. Now I'm not sure I want to go to the place again, they should have thought about that when dealing with customers.

i was amazed by this place its cozy. my boyfriend dosent eat veggies, but he loves his egg and spinach soup. I love the artichoke soup myself.

I live on 96th Street & came here for dinner last night for the first time with my husband & my mother-in-law for her birthday. I can't rave enough about this place. I happen to be the GM at a restaurant in the city, so I really am a reasonably "tough critic". This place rocked! Greatest service, Greatest atmosphere, Greatest food! I loved everything from the amuse bouche to the tartufo for dessert. The waiter spoiled us rotten knowing it was my mother in laws bday by generously topping off our delicious montepulciano's. I can't wait for my next visit to Pinocchio, I'm thrilled that I live walking distance.

I have always loved this place both at its old as well as its new location. The service is great, the food is terrific and the decor is wonderful. Whenever I walk it, I am greeted like an old friend. This is a wonderful neighborhood place that is always a sure bet.

Tucked away in the UES is a little gem of a restaurant. Small, intimate impeccable service and the most delicious chicken parmesan in the neighborhood, Try their shrimp Francese & caeser salad as well. Everything is modestly priced which makes the experience all the better.
