I ordered the risotto with chicken mushroom and asparagus however there were no mushrooms or asparagus to be seen on my plate which was quite disappointing. The frozen margaritas were to die for though

We were in Chinatown / Little Italy for 5 days primarily to eat at the dim sum places in Chinatown. However after 4 days of eating nothing but dim sum we decided to take a break and get some Italian food. This restaurant absolutely did not disappoint, and it was really hard to make a decision because there are so many great restaurants in this area. The fennel and apple salad with gorgonzola cheese and walnuts was simply out of this world, it was accented with a lemon vinaigrette. Highly recommend. I still think about that salad today and this was a few months ago. We were also very satisfied with the different pizzas and pasta dishes that we ordered. The service was attentive and appropriate. The place was clean, which is important to me. Also important to me is that they do not have hawkers out in the street trying to drag you inside. All in all this was an excellent dining experience and I would not hesitate to recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking for good, fresh Italian food at reasonable prices in this neighborhood.
Great lunch of pizza, pasta fagioli and buffalo mozzarella and chianti.
The base was thin and very crispy, although it did start to get a little soggy in the very centre after a few minutes, but the majority of the base remained crispy. What was so superb about this pizza was the wonderful flavour from the tomato base, which was sweet and full of flavour and matched perfectly with the 'just right' melted cheese. For me, this was by far the best Pizza I had in New York.
We sat outside and the staff was working hard to make sure that experience was good. The food was nice and flavorful. The calzone was large and filled. The gnocchi was fine. Looking at our food and that of those around us I think the oven items looked the best. It's not fast pizza but was good.
Everything was very enjoyable! The pizza was very delicious and the stuffed Buffalos adding a great touch to the theme of the restaurant. The servers and owner were very friendly and funny while also being quick on their feet and understanding. Getting to see the brick oven adds its own condiment to the pizzas, giving it its own unique flavor. Overall the atmosphere provided the right amount of comfortability and the price was worth it. Would eat here again.
We met Sam outside and he was so personable. He told us about their wonderful homemade pasta. We are SO happy we stopped here because their pasta was delicious and light. The dessert we got was also WONDERFUL. Oh and the bread at the beginning of the meal is made from their pizza dough. Warm and soooo good!! If you're a bread person you must come try. But also many dishes for everyone's taste!
We enjoyed the open-air dining in this great little restaurant. The pizza was really good, the drinks were cold, and the server was very nice. Like anything that's worth waiting for, the pizza took awhile to come out - but well-worth the wait. We were in Little Italy to get some delicious Italian food, and to see some of the sites where the Mafia had/has been active; we got both!
Everything was great! We stuffed ourselves and took leftovers trying so many things. The Chicken Marsala, Stuffed Shells, Lentil & Sausage, Burata, Pizza, salads & mixed drinks, were ALL perfect!
While walking down little Italy we were bombarded with hosts and hostesses trying to get us in their door. That is, until we came across this restaurant. Instead of trying to drag us in the door, the host welcomed us with open arms. He described his favorite dishes with gusto but a relaxed demeanor. Even calling to his regulars as they walked by, proving they cared more about satisfied customers instead of just another sale.
The decor was truly unique with these adorable buffalos lining the booths. The fettuccine Alfredo was spectacular, the stuffed raviolis were divine, and the pizza flatbread was beyond breathtaking. Fresh basil and tomato lined the front of the restaurant and were the perfect topping to our pizzas.
I cannot wait to revisit New York and this family restaurant!
Delicious food, nice service. We were very satisfied.
Some people have good food and very nice people. This is one of those places. I was instantly made to feel at home, the coffee was an Italian roast and yummy. My customers also like their food. It’s another great taste in Little Italy. I’ll definitely return when I’m in route. The owner and his friend are awesome people.
Pizza was delicious. Owner was sweet & talked with us.
The owner himself offered to cover our meal if we didn’t think it was fantastic. Needless to say, we ended up grabbing the check. This place was great. I had the Margherita pizza and my girlfriend got the shrimp carbonara. Both dishes were absolutely great. We also started off with the bruschetta which we VERY highly recommend!
What an incredible experience this restaurant was. The food was authentic Italian food and was absolutely delicious. The care the staff took of both my wife and I was incredible. The drinks were made to perfection and the my wife finally got here authentic canoli and cappuccino. If your ever in Little Italy on Mulberry Street, I would definitely recommend this establishment.
Oh my god me and my girl went here last night. Had the beef ravioli and pizza Bella, it was amazing. I was sweating while eating from the sheer joy of the flavor from the sauce. Amazing experience, can’t wait to come back with my parents
Oh Mio Dio!! So many choices in Little Italy, but this one has the goods! Homemade, perfectly cooked pasta complete with old world charm. Joe was a pleasure, and he sang to us in Italian ( no kidding, he has some pipes). We ate outside, but when it started raining the owner asked us to come inside and sit with him....and talk. We cannot give you a better review than 5 stars, but if we could, I assure you that we would. You made our Little Italy experience perfect!! Thank you for spending time with two girls from Indiana. We love you!
This place has a great marinara pizza. The staff were very nice and loved to accommodate my dog (brought him treats and ice water). I would recommend this location if you’re in the area. They also had public bathrooms and indoor/outdoor seating.
