Great traditional Italian dishes and wonderful service. Charming and intimate - great for romance or conversation with a few friends.

Very nice place. They don’t take reservations, it feels like you’re walking into someone’s home, is that kind of place. Very quiet, cozy place, with great food. And our server Carlos was amazing, great service, he was on top of everything.
They also have different specials aside from their menu, try them out, you won’t regret it :)
A hidden gem in the neighborhood 👍🏻

A diamond in the rough. Lovely very small and intimate restaurant, I think only 8 tables. Good variety on the menu given its size. Great salads (several different tomato-mozzarella), wonderful in-restaurant-baked olive bread, excellent pasta dishes. (The carbonara was our family’s favorite.) And the service was perfect, attentive and gracious. We will definitely go back the next time we’re in the neighborhood.

Small, quiet, low-key. No need to shout to be heard. Everything on the menu is good. Excellent service: quick, helpful, unobtrusive. Reasonable prices. Good date venue. I'll be back.

Very cozy and intimate place. Very few tables. The service is relaxed and professional, the food is very good and the ingredients high quality and fresh.

Great food. But be ready to wait some time for a table. Reservation is a must

Piccola salad: Skip, it's just a salad you'd expect from a pizza counter - romaine, raw onions, raw tomatoes. $9
Clams posilipo: My first time having clams, so I can't say if they're great quality, but the sauce was great, really briny and strong. $10
Rigatone melanzane: Hearty and fairly healthy, pretty much pasta and sauteed veggies with red sauce. $15.
Quick and friendly service, so all in all a good time. Just take that salad off the menu. Not worth the price to eat or make it.

Great UWS/NYC "tiny" Itialian only 16 seats and 'Papa' cooks on a 1960's home type 4 burner stove! Everything is the freshest beautifully prepared and presented. These are dishes like your grandma used to put out on a Sunday!

The food is very good. Perfect atmosphere for a couple to have a romantic dinnner. Reasonably priced with excellent service. A hidden gem on the upper Westside.

This is a lovely little place we discovered and decided to have a quick lunch, and we were definitely not disappointed! It's a tiny restaurant serving authentic italian food in a friendly way. Simple, cozy, and unpretentious. Why not...!

Ate here with a party of 8. The setting is quite nice. The owner did a great job of creating a cozy environment. The lighting was just right and the music complemented the food and setting. The service was excellent, all the drinks and food were timed perfectly. The menu was quite robust with lots of dishes and variety. The portion size was generous and the taste of the food was excellent. Everyone left satisfied and I'm sure we will return again soon. This place is definitely worth trying out.
