Excellent service. Very attentive and prompt. Lovely atmosphere, they decorated it for the holidays which I appreciated. We got the mushroom risotto and the salmon ravioli. The risotto was just what I was looking for and the ravioli was such a fun treat—really great flavor combination. The tiramisu we got for dessert was light and airy, with an excellent coffee/rum flavor. Everything was great for the price.
Walk by this place often and it’s always full of life. Finally got to go in. High-quality Italian meal near Grand Central. Yummy, including the beets burrata!
Great place for a solo diner, a couple or a large group. Friendly, knowledgeable servers are very accommodating. There’s always a wonderful selection of specials. I’ve been here many times and love all the pasta dishes and risottos (and I usually never eat rice). Tonight’s risotto with squid ink and scallops was outstanding. At this price point, it’s the best in the UN area.
The food is extraordinary! It’s so hard to find authentic Italian food in USA. I’m from Europe but live in Detroit and haven’t had good Italien food in a long time. It’s worth every penny and Osteria Laguna is a perfect example that excellent food can be affordable. Highly recommend this place.
Great little place directly across from the Westin Grand Central. Had Pasta Fagioli and a special bolognese, just like street cafe food in Florence. Sat at the bar, good beer and good service as well. Highly recommended if you happen to be in the neighborhood.
The bread, scallops, linguini, ravioli and dessert were all excellent. The service was top-notch in a relaxed atmosphere.
The restaurant and staff were great. The food was very good but portion size was small for the money. Beware a half a glass of wine was $15.
A very nice and classy restaurant with excellent food quality, and most importantly: BIG PORTIONS 👌 😀
Very friendly staff! Food takes a bit of time, but it's WORTH IT! Nice atmosphere, they never play music 🎶, which I know is important for some people. It's a restaurant where you can talk!
Very nice desserts, very exquisite. And the prices are VERY reasonable! Especially for New York!
I absolutely recommend and would definitely visit againt. It's worth it!
I arranged a luncheon here for nine people on November 3, 2023. The staff was wonderfully accommodating. The service was perfect; the food was terrific! Everyone enjoyed their lunch. This is the third time our group has had our luncheon at this restaurant. We will definitely be back!
Food was good. Deff had Italian vibe to it
Excellent classic Italian food with friendly atmosphere and great service. All dishes we tried were good, some outstanding. Dishes were mid-size and reasonably priced. Highly recommend.
Festive and warm ambiance. Nice wine selection. Decadent and tasty pasta entrees. Good olive oil at the table. Extremely attentive staff.
We've come here with a group of friends in mid day. It was a random choice, unplanned and without booking. Still we've found the atmosphere amazing and the dishes were delicious. The only thing that bothered us was the waitress. While we were still having our meals, she was very eager to come and take the empty plates. She came multiple times to our table to ask if we need something, which made us feel that she wants us to go. If the place was full, I would understand that. But the place was totally empty, we were the only guests and we were still having our meals and drinking our wines. Besides that, I would def come here again.
Everyone in our party was happy with their meal. The restaurant has more open space than the average NYC Italian restaurant so talking although not always easy it is possible. All in all an excellent experience.
Wonderful food!!! My Mushroom Risotto was delicious and can't remember name of the pasta dish my guest had but he was satisfied! We had dessert as well 😋 . We were seated immediately and served right away. The dishes looked as beautiful as they tasted. Worth the price!!

Great food and wine selections. I savored the seafood, fish stew and an easy to drink Chianti, after a loaded cheese plate. My five dinner buddies were equally pleased. Service was attentive, not hurried.
My hotel is in front of the street, I was surprised by the quality of the food. Wow.
I order the Bufala caprese salad, Bruschetta and the spaghetti ala vongole (delicious). Very nice place, service friendly and attentive the Italian way. I recommend ♥️ I can’t take picture before was so tasty 🤤
My friends and I get together about four times a year and this is one of our favorite restaurants, particularly because they easily accommodate gluten-free requests. Our group of around 8 to 10 people is always served promptly and the food and the service is always superb!
Near, but not quite on the “beaten path,” a real find. Excellent service, wonderful food, good pricing. Truly enjoyable specials and made to feel like we could sit and enjoy our meal. A recommended eatery!
