Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Hyde Park

Lovely ambience. Excellent service. The wait staff is pleasant and very attentive. Each dish was better than the last. My husband and I shared the Caesar salad which was crispy and one of the best I’ve had in a restaurant in a while. I’m a very good fish cook and their Bronzino entree was cooked to perfection. I also love broccoli rabe and their’s was a delight to my palate. My husband had the chicken parmigiana with pasta and loved it. For dessert, we had the crème brûlée. While it was very good, I found the crème a bit heavy. I would have liked it to have been much lighter. Overall, we had a wonderful belated Valentine’s Day dinner.

I was here for Valentine’s dinner, my reservation was for 6:45 got there 6:40 and was sealed immediately. The waitress was very attentive. The food quality was very good, from appetizers to dessert. It was a little pricey but didn’t mind because service, food quality and ambiance were all good.

This was a Valentines Day dinner so the restaurant was very busy and had a special menu. The menu had many good selections for appetizer, entree and desert. Surprisingly, service was excellent — prompt, polite and friendly. My wife and I will definitely return.

We love celebrating birthdays with friends here. The drinks, appetizers, salads, bread, entrees, and desserts are all fabulous! The ambiance is dark and cozy, and the service is always terrific!

Went for Monday Pasta Night prix fixe@$45. Great service, friendly and very attentive. The appetizers were delicious and plentiful. The pasta was just ok: cavatelli with duck ragu lacked flavor, tasted like it could have been made with ground turkey-no “oomph.” The spaghetti with clams and chili crisp was swimming in chili oil, tasty but too wet. Chocolate rocky road cheesecake was more like a thick mousse, but was tasty - albeit a bit too sweet. Not sure I think this is a “good” value, when you add in the wine (3glasses for two of us) and tax and tip the bill still comes to $165, for a pasta entree. I Love the ambience of this place, and it always has a very attractive crowd, just wish it was a bit less expensive.
