- MMikeNew York City •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoMade anniversary dinner reservations weeks in advance. We were promptly seated despite arriving 20 minutes early. Very extensive beverage list including some delicious Italian beers. The roasted beets and octopus salad starters were delicious. Our entrees, the candele Genovese and the Lobster pasta with substituted homemade GF fettuccine were both excellent. Service was quick and attentive despite the considerable Sunday evening dinner crowd. A Torta Caprese, espresso, and an unexpected on the house shot of Lemoncello for each of us for our special occasion was a wonderful way to end a very memorable dinner. We cannot wait to go back!More infoPalmaPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Greenwich Village•4.9
- AAnthonyVIPAtlanta •5 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoI hesitate to EVER book a Valentine’s dinner in Manhattan….but WOW this was my best Valentine’s experience ever. It was a 3 course price fixe dinner with multiple options and all of them were “home runs” in the opinion of our party of five. Portions ample and the tastes were outstanding. Stellar experience.More infoLittle OwlPrice: Expensive• Mediterranean• West Village•4.8
- KkimberleyNew York City •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoWe came to this place under the premise that the food was outstanding based on the Michelin rating and social media touting that the food was comparably to that in Thailand…..this was the reason we booked. The service was lovely, everyone friendly and attentive which is always appreciated. The shrimp pancake appetizer was an interactive delicious experience. The rose quartz drink I had done virgin and enjoyed. The shrimp pad Thai was delicious, noodles done well, very tasty. The Wagyu pho was recommended and underwhelming honestly. We enjoyed both of the desserts we ordered, the crème brûlée and mango ice cream served with sticky rice….this was a highlight for us. Would I say Value….Probably Not.More infoSoothrPrice: Expensive• Thai• East Village•4.7
- HHollyNew York City •11 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoVery good soca with botarga. Excellent Echine de Porc! Will come back just for that dish. Salad was very fresh but the vinaigrette was a bit too vinegar forward. Dessert was a rice pudding with persimmon. Totally bland and not worth eating. Had a lovely glass of Côte de Rhône.More infoZimmi'sPrice: Very Expensive• French• Greenwich Village•4.7
