Had a nice quiet lunch here on a weekday. Surprised there were not a lot of patrons because everything we had was delicious. There is a lunch menu but rather than having wraps or paninis we wanted to try their pasta dishes. I haven't had a good pesto dish in a while and their bucatini pesto was delicious. After eating this the pear ravioli was like dessert. Clean restrooms. Restaurant is away from the 86th street foot and bus traffic. Worth walking a few blocks away from the shopping district.
Me my wife and my cousin went here and it was absolutely fantastic! Food was way above Expectation of even the best restaurant i've been to. The service was unmatched. The atmosphere is absolutely stunning. This place is a gem in dyker heights and it is one that we all should support for many many years to come.
Nice place. A bit noisy because it can get crowded. The food is good. Prices are somewhat decent. Staff is great. Would come here again.
Came again:
Service is very good. The atmosphere is just like how we remember it. However, because it's raining it's not as packed.
Forgot the name of the dish, it was a pasta with cheese, baked penne, I think. It is one of their better dishes. Was delicious.
Stayed across the street 5 nights. Ate here 3 of them. The same meal every time. Best. Pesto. Ever!!!
Great place. Exposed brick wall decor gives it a warm old world feel. Service is top notch and hits all the marks. Our server Francisco is extremely knowledgeable, attentive and very polite. From appetizer to dessert everything was delicious. Appetizers: Baby Rice Balls (amazing flavor) and Octopus Carpaccio (very fresh). Main course: Chicken Lucia (juicy flavorful chicken) and the Clams in White Sauce (fresh, hot and perfect). Highly recommend this gem of a restaurant.
Perfect spot in Dyker. Food was great and the service was spot-on. Will definitely be going back here!
What can I say, the food was delicious! The service was on point. And the space was comfortable. I got the stuffed shrimp and my friend got the chicken martini. They were both wonderful. We also had a baked clam appetizer which was ok. The clams were small but good tasting.
Definitely worth trying.
Wonderful food and service. Very fresh handmade pastas and all of the entrees and desserts were delicious.
Staff was very professional and friendly.
Delightful! Service was so attentive! Food was delicious, with generous portions and very tasty. A very intimate and relaxed atmosphere. (wish they also had a full liquor license, but a minor item). Enjoyed our family dinner there and highly recommend!
Really enjoyed eating here. Staff were great, food was delicious! You could tel it was fresh made.
We had a soup and it was delicious. More than worth it. Very friendly staff as well. Thank you for having us.
Had dinner here last Sunday. The mushroom lasagna was scrumptious as were the clams, calamari, dessert, etc!!!! The food is consistently delicious.
The best mushroom lasagna anywhere. The mini cannoli is just perfect. In the fall they have a delicious Pumpkin Ravioli.
It is a go to place for Italian food. Not your everyday Italian restaurant, but very good at what they do.
The service is always attentive. Love this place. The atmosphere is cozy and subdued.
Love this small and cozy place, wish I discovered it before. Visited them in their happy hours from 12-3 Monday to Saturday, had a very delicious pasta with cream sauce for only 15$ , definitely worth it!
Waiter was really polite and pleasant, food came pretty fast. For sure place to recommend and visit. Will go there again for sure!

I came here again recently with family and it was just as good as the first time we went. I highly recommend giving this place a try.
Food was delish - portions were huge. Service was superb. Definitely coming back.
I usually only order Italian food when I'm in the mood for tiramisu, and while the meatballs with ricotta I got were good, this might've been the worst tiramisu I've eaten in my life. It didn't taste bad, it just didn't taste like any tiramisu I've ever had. Like if someone had just handed it to me and told me to try it I don't think I'd know what it was supposed to be. It doesn't even really look like tiramisu (pic is from their Seamless). I even googled "traditional Tiramisu recipe" because I know Italian food in America tends not to actually be authentic but none of the results resembled what I got from this place. Barely any cocoa powder and if there was any espresso in it I couldn't taste it. Anyway I'm not saying you shouldn't eat here, just don't order the tiramisu if you do.

I recently dined at this Italian restaurant in Brooklyn and was blown away by the delicious food and exceptional service. The chicken parmigiana, grilled chicken with broccoli robe, and mushroom lasagna were all expertly prepared and absolutely delicious. Christine, the owner, was a pleasure to speak with and her passion for her restaurant was evident in the quality of the food. As an independently owned and operated establishment, this restaurant truly stands out. Our server, Tiffany, was also amazing and added to the overall enjoyable dining experience. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic Italian cuisine and top-notch service. You’ll feel just at home here!
This is a little Italian gem located next to burgerfi. Second time coming here with family group over 8 people. The food is delicious. I got the tagliatelle Maria with grilled chicken (fresh pasta made daily).They cut the chicken up and mixed it with the pasta which was amazing compared to just putting sliced grilled chicken on top. The sweet and spicy calamari is different and delicious. Their standard grandma style pizza is very good as well. The setting is very a comfy NYC Italian vibe. The service is top notch as well. Courteous and attentive staff that suites the quality of food provided. Great date spot or family dinner. They also have more items on the menu than the website menu shows. Definitely will be coming back.
