Dino was an amazing host! The vino was supherb, the cappuccinos were on point, the seabass was unreal (and served whole and portioned table side), and the caprese was fresh and perfectly seasoned.

Quaint, elevated Italian interior with low decibel levels, perfect for dates or dinner with parents. Personal favorites: olive bread , minestrone , tuna tartare and the sweets. And of course, coffee .

Waiter very wine Davy. Burrata appetizer , sides of fingerling potatoes and spinach were delicious. Salmon perfectly cooked with disappointing sides. Lovely place to sit outside and people watch

Deeply satisfied to find a genuine Italian. Perfect ambiance and all staff were fantastic. Great value lunch menu 3 courses for $29- you will not be disappointed

Quite possibly one of the best brunches I've had ever. My favorite apple cinnamon pancakes I've ever had...and I've had a lot of apple cinnamon pancakes .

Small but not overly crowded ; the wine list is reasonably priced and the menu changes daily. You can’t go wrong with anything but we recommend the Osso Buco or the Lombardia.

Pricey appetizers , though the primi plates are good portions, and delicious. Try the mozzarella and mushrooms . The tagliatelle bolognese was good.

Delicious food. Ask in advance for outdoor seating . Arrabiata for vegetarians .

Vegetarian recommendation: mafalde al pesto . Long noodles with basil pesto and fava beans .

The tuna belly was delicious. I'm coming back and making a meal on it next time. What a gem this place is.

The nicest people work here! Food is great, but the service really makes this place fantastic. Outdoors is dog friendly too!

Very good but pricey for what it is. Sit outside and enjoy prime west village vibes .

The Parmesan balsamic risotto was amazing, as well as all the desserts ! Nice ambience, good service

Classy Italian interpretation of classics. Elegant decor and outdoors is all about beautiful people.

Really good food. Italian Home made taste, nice and pleasant service . Tomato Ravioli and Minestrone soup-mmm!

Great date spot if you're wondering through the west village . Inexpensive brunch menu

Enzo the GM is the most amazing person! All the food is great. Especially the filet over arugula . Ask for the specials, they're always exceptional.

One Louis Vuitton Friend of the House recommends the cappuccino that’s made like in the old days. Find out who at the LV Amble site. Read more

The Foccacine are great for light breakfast , the octopus and potato salad is tasty as well . Whatever you have it will definitely not disappoint !

Classiest breakfast/brunch in the village ; well-heeled locals, Italian fashionistas and the occasional low-key celeb.

Try their namesake for dessert . So much rich chocolate made in such a light and airy way it won't leave you feeling guilty.

Among the best fine dining experiences in the city !

Desserts are fenomenal yum ????

“Queen” Pat McGrath, celebrity makeup artist , names this West Village pasticceria and confetteria as one of her favorite restaurants .

This is fine dining ! The preparation of the food and the presentation is outstanding!

The eggs benedict and mimosas are my favorite thing!

Spaghetti All’Arrabbiata, wine selection , cozy

Great eggs Benedict & West Village vibes

Great spot! Check out their virtual tour before you go! Read more

Hot espresso poured over gelato #yum

Try the Vitello Tonnato! Is one of my Favourite there!

Must do reservations - books up or eat at the counter like I we did

Get the Cappuccino it's a classic and the Omelette Parma cotto

Order the lamb ragu when they have as a special, its very light, but full of flavors. Great even if you are not a huge fan of lamb .

Best "see and be seen" brunch in NYC for sophisticated ladies about town . - Bryce

Not my fave location, ambience-wise, but pasta was so so good and perfectly al dente .

My partner and I both got food poisoning. We had the gazpacho special.

Old NY feel and a west village resto where the tables don't feel cramped in the least. That said hopping bar scene

Splurge on breakfast . Yes, an iced latte is $6 & a soft boiled egg with toast is, *shudder*, $10. But they will most likely be the most delicious iced latte & egg you've ever had.

Finish your meal with an americano

Very under rated. The food is better than Morandi and it's way less busy.

Sant Ambroeus is everything you want from a cafe . the namesake cake ? mmmmmmm

Their Caccio e Pepe is glorious and the Carbonara is a poem. One complaint: service wasn't great despite them not being too busy. Won't keep me

Sidewalk tables are a treat in summer and food is better than Virgin Ectra next door. Check out the dessert display inside.

get the pasta special !

Good outdoor seating for people watching in the WVil

Great place to get some gelato to go - pistachio , coconut , and hazelnut are all awesome.
