The ambience outdoors in the evening was breathtaking. Enjoyed the lamb and the bodini dessert . Not too impressed with their cocktails . Would come back to this bklyn gem.

Lee Hoffman

One of the best brunches I've ever had - I don't even eat eggs Benedict and it was one the best things I've ever eaten. French toast was amazing too.

Cassie Panayiotou

Officially the best Italian pasta dish I’ve ever tasted. Also a stunningly perfect pannacotta. Knowledgeable staff who were able to recommend a wine according to our taste. Lovely warm decor

I’m in love with this place and the decoration but not too much with the food. We ordered new zealand lamb chops & Tonarelli (alaskan king crab & zucchini ) but I didn’t like much the flavor

Cooper Smith

Start with some olives to nibble on, then I highly recommend the squid ink pasta with cuttlefish , shrimp , seafood ragu ̀ and pepper .

Janey Elmgreen

Amazing food! We all had pasta and they were all really well done. Authentic and tasty Italian, would definitely return, fantastic

Mia A

Delicious brunch ! Sit in the outdoor area/greenhouse and try the gnocchi , which are different (and better) than what you'd typically expect.

Nicole Regan

Really delicious pasta , friendly and fairly quick service . The patio outside is beautiful too, though you might need to wait to sit there on a nice night.

Anne H

One of the best Italian meals I've ever had! We sat in the garden and had extraordinary wonderful food and we will definitely return here. Please ignore "cash only " comments, they accept cards !

Ricotta , black truffles , and prosciutto di Parma elevate the eggs Benedict at brunch , when the French toast comes stuffed with apple compote and topped with Amarena cherries . Read more

Jamie Abrego

I've been here twice with my girlfriend. Once for brunch and for dinner . The bistecca is awesome. Definitely a place I will come back to. Great food. Great environment.

A selection of their cheese is imported daily from Italy. And nothing provides the perfect distraction for an awkward date (as seen on Girls) like a mouthful of Burrata .

Michelle Wiles

Artichoke omelette with whipped ricotta and crunchy chip is that perfect flavor AND texture combo

Dajah DeKattu

The fresh farm organic chicken was amazing. The service wasn't great. The server/host was pretty pleasant at first. But that changed when one of the people in my party opted to change her meal.

Averna USA

Aurora's bar team won't steer you wrong! The "Caffe' Shakerato " made with Averna, Jamaican Rum , milk , & a shot of espresso is the perfect way to start your evening or wind down a hearty Italian meal .

Kate

Delicious! Loved the ambiance, the food, and the service. They have a beautiful outdoor space as well .

Eduardo Ramirez

Everything I tried was delicious but the pappardelle was my favorite. The atmosphere is great too, romantic but not ostentatious.

Ana Triana

The lunch is a memorable experience! Delicious watermelon feta summer salad . Emmanuelle the manager really knows how to provide a laid back yet sophisticated service level.

Ada Chiu

Pasta is delicious and flavorful. Outdoor seating is cute although service leaves a bit to be desired

Max Wendkos

Come here for brunch and order the truffle eggs benedict . It's unreal.

Valerie Petrov

I've had dreams about the pea salad . Summer in a bowl!! Great patio space , too!!

Stina P.

sit in the greenhouse garden area - particularly on a cozy rainy day - all brunch plates include unlimited coffee !

Cooper Smith

I don't usually fux with dessert , but this salted caramel budino is amazing

Andrea Barrezueta

Beautiful space and food, especially the grilled octopus and the burrata pasta . Deliciousness on a plate ????

Caitlin

The food is really good. The squash pasta was so delicious. Make sure you have a reservation

Evan Bartlett

Salads , brunch , grilled chicken , everything's tasty. I pickup and eat at home with a nice bottle of wine

Cameron Gidari

Really fantastic spot. I had butternut squash ravioli with oxtail , and it was done to perfection.

Daniel Gonzalez

Eggs Benedict, one of the best I've ever had... Bloody Mary , weak... Coffee , horrible...

Anastasiia Savina

Definitely the spot for sunny Sunday branch! They're very generous for alcohol in cocktails ???? ????

Ronald Cattrysse

Perfect date spot , get a table outside . Can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

Monti Bray

The pork rigatoni is to die for. Sit at the bar and enjoy the company.

Steven Lambiase

Great handmade pastas , the prosciutto benedict is the best thing on the brunch menu .

Charles Simic

Red wine , garden , accommodating staff ! Let us in at 5 even though they don't open until 6pm

Andy Stone

The French toast tastes like the center of a croissant . One of the single best bites of food that I have ever experienced.

BKbybike NYC

Always enjoy the food. Everything is flavorful.

Jessie Catana

Amazing food. Pasta was perfectly seasoned and cooked al dente

The brunch braised short ribs and Eggs Benedict were delicious!

Yeliz Sahin

Octopus , red snapper carpaccio and tiramisu is a must!

Suzy Tran

Parm eggs benny was delicious.

brenna cammeron

Happy hour : A quartino (glass and a half) of wine for the price of a glass, AND you get foccacia , cheese & olives . 5-7p every day. AWESOME.

Emma Webster

The french toast at brunch is incredible! And all the food looks good too! This is a fantastic restaurant !

Never seems too crowded . Good food, good drinks, friendly and feels separated while being in Williamsburg.
