    We had a mutual birthday dinner served beautifully. Fresh food so tastefully prepared. Tiramisu made at table side and the waitstaff singing to us. So festive and delish.

    Excellent spot for pasta. You won’t be disappointed. Bucatini Cacio Pepe in a Parmesan wheel and the cavatelli are both killer.

    Seated 15 min after reservation, and service wasn't very attentive. Not sure if it was an off day or understaffed. Food was ok and of course, you'll be paying Manhattan prices.
