Duck to die for
My friend and I just visited. I had pork piazzaioli and my friend had the duck breast in orange sauce. The pork chops were amazingly good but I wished that I had gotten the duck instead. I've never had duck breast so tender and juicy and delicious. Next time I'm going to try the lasagna. But I'll leave with the duck! As for the wine....a more than generous amount is poured into a glass the size most resaturants don't use, and if they do, they certainly do not fill it like they do at Volare. I had the pinot grigio...smoothe and delicious! A definate must see!

I stopped going here
This place used to be a favorite of mine but has morphed into another creature. Forget about going here when it is busy. You will wait an eternity for your food and drinks. Lately the meats and fish have been poorly prepared. The food is either overcooked or poor quality to begin with. The last time I had a burning in my throat for hours after. Then the kicker was the bill being 25% more expensive.

Forgedda bout it
If you like Olive Garden and Chef Boyardee, you're going to love Volare.

Osso bucco, risotto, and comfort
My friends say that I'm horribly old fashioned because of my love (and I do mean love) of Volare. The restaurant reflects a very different period of time: nothing trendy, nothing fancy. Instead, just beautifully executed Italian standards (the osso bucco and mushroom risotto are unparalleled) served by real professionals.

great dining
A real treasure which combines wonderful food, atmosphere and service. The staff makes everyone feel comfortable. If you don't see what you'd like to eat on the menu, "just ask us" is the attitude with these friendly people. What's better than a meal custmizred for you. In my many years of entertaining family, friends and clients, I've never been more pleased than with our dining experiences at Volare.

OUR SPOT
My wife and I met at Volare almost 10 years ago...Since relocating to Charleston SC we've made it a point to return to our favorite "hide out" whenever we are back in the City...here's what you order: to start :some clams oreganata and shrimp scampi...then you get the chicken scarp and you get braciole with rigatoni...brocilli rabe and some thin sliced fried potatoes on the side...finish off with one of the homemade desserts and a bucca....the owners and staff are the most friendly in NY...the feel of the restaurant is "old school"...a perfect place to spend a few hours in one of the classic NY neighborhoods...trust me, you won't be disappointed
