Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Becco, a charming Italian spot in NYC's Theater District, is celebrated for its "fabulous" food and "excellent" service. The pasta specials, particularly the "Sinfonia di Pasta," are a highlight, offering great value. While some find it "very loud," many appreciate the lively atmosphere and prompt pre-theater dining.

    The food is the typical American-Italian interpretation of traditional italian cuisine. overall the food is good. Sadly the tempo and the attitude of the staff both at the welcome stage and during the entire meal was quite unfriendly.

    Great value. Good food, big portions, all wines $40, just a little loud during the pre-theater hour but would go back for sure.

    Delicious Thanksgiving meal. Excellent choices made on the fixed menu. Great, friendly service. The only drawback was the seating. We were a small table for 2 placed up against a wall of a small tight room shared with a huge party of over 20. It was quite claustrophobic. A huge reason for selecting this restaurant was for the beautiful pictures of the dining room's atmosphere. It felt like we were eating in a storage room.

    I’ve been visiting Becco for ~15 years when in Manhattan. The experiences have been consistently excellent. This year’s thanksgiving dinner was wonderful. Great wine, antipasto, three tasty pastas, braised short ribs that melted in my mouth, and a dessert sampler tray. I’ve never been offered cocoa pasta stuffed with squash. It was creamy and without a hint of chocolate—despite the ingredients. Another fun Becco experience. Thanks Lydia and staff!

    The quality of food for the price is really poor. No seasoning, everything was very basic and tasted mass produced. Much better luck going into a local pub or tavern - way too expensive.
