Welcoming and pleasant staff. Delicious Italian cuisine. Fast service

My friends and I enjoyed a brunch at this location. The restaurant was clean and inviting. The staff was very friendly and attentive. The food was great. This wasn’t my only visit, and when I’m in the area again I will definitely be coming back for more.

Great pizza that is ALWAYS so flavorful and nice, cozy atmosphere. Truly one of our favorite spots. Have spent many a Friday or Saturday night dinner here.

We ordered the broccoli rave and penne with meat sauce, it was the most delicious!!!

Really good pasta & pizza! The service was excellent - they were quick and attentive. Like a lot of NYC restaurants, the seating area is crammed tight and you have inches between your table and the table next to you - this was the only negative for me. Overall it was a nice experience with delicious food.

My son and I were in town and wanted a sit down Italian place near our hotel in the Financial District. We read the reviews for Harry’s and gave it a try. The service was a little slow, but the food was outstanding & you get quite a bit of food even for the single serving! I had spaghetti and meatballs ($21), and my son had Fettuccini Alfredo w chicken ($28). This was our favorite meal of the 7 days in NYC! Highly recommend Harry’s.

We picked this restaurant as it was close to our hotel and we were pleasantly surprised with how well it worked out. First of all, finding a place to eat without a wait on a Saturday night was amazing. We got right in and were immediately given water. Our waitress was super friendly, helpful and checked on us frequently. The drinks were delicious and priced fairly. I don’t think 15 for an expresso martini is unreasonable at all. We ordered the artichoke crostini which was delicious and then the smaller sausage and onion pizza to split. It was a absolutely delicious, just what we were in the mood for. We will definitely go back the next time we are in the area!!

We had our pre-Marathon dinner at Harry's and it did not disappoint! Literally everything we ordered was outstanding. We had a table for 12, and ordered Burrata, Calamari and a pizza for appetizers. Then we followed it up with Chicken Franchais, Chicken Parm, Spaghetti and Meatballs, and Orechiette with Sausage and Broccoli Rabe, all very large platters family-style. I wish I had taken some pictures, but we were so busy eating and the food went so quickly that I completely forgot. Plus we had our neice's baby son there so he occupied a lot of our attention. If you stay at the Four Points by Sheraton Downtown, this place is just across the courtyard. I highly recommend it.

We needed to order in a pinch for 20 people group the next day. The restaurant picked up my call immediately and arranged the whole catering literally the night before! Very impressed with their service and committment to quality. The food tasted amazing and was done perfectly. I will definitely use them in the future for our catering orders because we often cater to local offices for presentations. The food was delivered 10 minutes early, hot, presentation was picture perfect, utensils, plates and napkins. Made my day so easy! Looking forward to the next order.

Amazing food and service! Family portions were a perfect and economical option for our family of 5! Our server AK was the best! Kept our water glasses full at all times and great recommendation for wine.

Weather perfect for dining outside. Waitstaff could not have been more attentive. Portions enough for a doggie bag. Caesar salad, one of the best I've eaten, agreed by my 3 companions. Red sauce was not spicy, fine with me. I would eat here again.

Pizza is quite good. Better than some of the more famous places nearby

Excellent!! From the super friendly service, to beer recommendation, to food, to price!!!! Having moved from CT to CA a few years back, we were sooo starved for actual pizza and to be honest, we'd both go back just to eat here again!! 🤩🤩 till next time guys!

One of the top chicken Parmesan in the city and best pizza. I have eaten here 50+ times and always solid.

WOW WOW WOW. I came here because the owner of this restaurant also owns my favorite deli in Long Island and this place did the not disappoint one bit. Drinks got my tipsy and food was exception for the price. I got the chicken and sauteed veges and it was so delicious. Place was so homie and quiet, perfect for date night or family dinner. Can’t believe this isn’t viral and doesn’t have everyone talking about it. This is a must try in FIDI, I REPEAT A MUST TRY! your welcome

Hands down best Italian lunch spot in downtown. Sit at the bar with Fernando and have a great meal. Baked clams 12/10 amazing. All chicken and seafood dishes are excellent. Management and ownership is exceptional.

Ate a great pizza not far off from the main streets. I would definitely recommend the Square full pizzas, it fed my family of 5 and they enjoyed.

Nice place for office lunch and evening bistro as well. Ideal for large as well as small groups. I have tried a lot on there menu so Hands down everything is nice. Some pics of there mouth watering pizza

My friends and I went to brunch here and had an amazing time ! We had a party of more than ten and they were able to accommodate us perfectly. We all agreed to do the bottomless brunch, and the waiter was amazing at keeping the drinks going. It was $28.95 for an entree & two hours of unlimited drinks and a coffee or tea, and I would say it was worth it completely! The food was delicious, the portions were huge, the mimosas were good, and the waiters were very nice and attentive. Everyone loved their food. In the picture is the arugula, prosciutto, and shaved Parmesan pizza, to the left is the potato, pancetta and caramelizar onions . Would completely recommend for brunch!!

Rarely write reviews however this place deserves it. We were looking for a traditional Italian food restaurant after leaving a museum and found Harry's Spacious seating, friendly and competent service. Top it off with delicious food at reasonable prices. 5 star value.

I've been a regular at Harry's, on Gold Street, for now over five years, and I am never disappointed. I've recommended it to many friends and family, and whenever I get a chance to take anyone out to eat, I normally try to take them here first. The service is always top notch. It doesn't matter who serves us, they're always polite, quick and attentive. The food is excellent. It's rare to go somewhere and get something done the same exact great tasting, cooked perfectly, way each time but somehow Harry's manages to do it. They're calamari is ridiculously good (no legs, just the squid body is cut into bite size pieces) and the Chicken in the Oven comes out so juicy and tender every time, you practically don't need a knife to cut into the cutlets. The Chicken Arrabiata is also amazing. It's not too spicy but has good heat to it and the touch of sourness makes it delicious, coupled with artichoke and cherry peppers, this is one of my favorites as well. The pizza never disappoints either and now they are doing round pizzas again too! If you haven't tried Harry's yet, you definitely have to get down there and find out for yourself. You will not be disappointed!

Good food, good atmosphere and service. Preferred vodka sauce over the bolognese.

Had a nice lunch. Pasta was a little dry, but the server was great.

Great spot to come and enjoy great food with great service. I've been here before but today stopped in for lunch at the bar. Highly recommend coming here. I had a prosciutto and mozzarella sandwich . Fresh bread perfectly sliced prosciutto with a fresh mozzarella with arugula and tomato. Check it out

Visiting the city for the first time and this place was close to where we were staying. Ended up in here a couple of times. Some of the best Italian food I have had. Pizza was amazing and huge (we got a half) and the pasta was perfect with loads of tasty sauce. Would definitely go here again if I get a chance to visit NYC in the future.

Great place for brunch, lunch, dinner, family friendly, good service, affordable, giant American size portions, we had a salad and meatball sandwich, both great and friendly personnel

This is a really lovely local restaurant that's focused on Pizza but serves other Italian comfort food. The signature square pizza is really good.. strongly recommended and it's more than enough for one person to get very very satisfied. Service is excellent and the ambiance in the restaurant both indoors and outside on the street seating is great and clearly very very popular with people working in and around the area. Restaurant also offers a free WiFi for convenience. Highly rated for the good food and relaxed atmosphere after a full day.

We got the basic cheese pizza. One Bite, everyone knows the rules. It was our favorite pizza of the trip! The server let my selective 9 year old get the spaghetti with shrimp and hold the marinara. We ate inside and had a lovely family dinner! Dress code casual on a summer Wednesday night.

The atmosphere was nice and laid back. The server was really nice and funny. The food was great and the food was plenty.

While visiting NYC for the week. My and I went here for my son's birthday dinner. He wanted spaghetti and meatballs. He loved it and said the meatball balls were the biggest and better than Olive Garden. The chicken Alfredo was creamy and flavorful. Penne pasta was delicious, according to my family as well. The salads were well crafted with fresh ingredients. They didn't have any ice cream and used whipped cream instead for his birthday brownie. We were seated right away and didn't have to wait long for our food.

What a great place! I've know Harry for for over 40 years. This Downtown Wall Street area Italian food is fantastic. The dollar buys a lot of great food and the Pizza delivery is swift. You must try this place.

Some of the reviews have been a bit harsh and felt like I had to share my experience. Went here yesterday and the food was tasty and fresh. The restaurant was super clean and the staff was kind, attentive, and respectful. Guests were spaced apart from one another and it added to the sense of comfort. Be sure to have your proof of vaccination ready . Will def be back soon. Thank you Harry's for the nice time.

The servers were amazing! The food was absolutely delicious! Great laid back atmosphere. You will be so glad you dined here.

Friendly and attentive staff. The pizza was freshly prepared and tasted delicious. I have to come back to try out the pasta, heard it’s just as good.

Great value for the portions. Buffalo wings were spicy and crispy. The family size chicken parm with spaghetti for 42 bucks could easily feed a family of 4 a great value. The chicken was thin and crispy but not dry. Lots of cheese. Was a busy Saturday night but they had tables available.

GOLDEN STATE LIMOUSINE LLC

Amazing Italian food with great flavor and quality. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was very nice. Definitely a place worth visiting again.

Chino Chen

Good value, location, and no waiting on a Friday night. Also, huge portions, and if you like thin-crust square pizza, definitely give it a try. We both got a drink, appetizer, and whole pizza and came out to be around $30 a person. For the location and decor, it was definitely worth it.

Steven Cotch

Excellent food at a reasonable price for NYC. Huge portions and super tasty. I would certainly return.

HolySocom

Pizza was ready in 10-14 min,super delicious if you in the area and want a great NY pizza this is the place.

Spent two weeks in Manhattan and this was the BEST Pizza and Pasta we had in the time.... Taken there by a local and I see why. Pizza - the kids are still raving about it. Penna alla Vodka - I dont like booze in my food - this was AMAZING. I have not see this in the UK (or ignore it) and now will select this everytime. Portions were big - very big.... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Wil Yuen

Had a big family dinner when I visited NYC. Excellent food and service. Wish I got some pizza 😂 but the kids got most of it.

HallieKay McBride

The food was amazing. I usually don't like Italian food all that much, but oh my gosh, it was just soooo good!!! For the portions you get, it is well priced. I would come here again if only I lived in New York.

Vee 祐宁 L

We were at Brooklyn bridge and wanted to look for place to eat and celebrate new year on the new year eve. Found this place through google. Food was delicious, service is good. I especially love the pasta… We had a good time there and very happy. We paid total about US$190 for 4 pax ( 20% tips on NYE) I don’t know how the final bill came up to be $190 vs $183 though…

We stumbled across this place walking back to our hotel. It was so good!! If you're looking for a restaurant your whole family can sit in comfortably in NYC this is it! The waitress was very attentive and the food was delicious! Large portions as well. I got fettuccine Alfredo with grilled chicken and broccoli added.

Lisa Williams

Harry’s Italian Pizza Bar is a true gem! The food was absolutely phenomenal—every dish was bursting with flavor and expertly prepared. The pizzas were a perfect blend of crispy and chewy with toppings that tasted incredibly fresh. Beyond the amazing food, the atmosphere was just right: vibrant, welcoming, and full of energy. The staff were attentive and friendly, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. This is a must-visit for anyone looking for top-notch food and a fantastic dining environment.

Strongly recommend this place for family outing. Food were all great and plenty of portion. So yummy. Drink was refillable. Staffs were very kind. Little bit loud music but there were big meeting another side of the restaurant.

I just had dinner. Pizza was great and the baked chicken wing were delicious. Dinner was perfect. The only thing that bothered me was the waiter did not put bread on the table , when I asked him he said he was busy. Sorry it was not busy there was a total of 3 tables. But otherwise, everything was perfect. I will be back.

Enjoyed a family style dinner of Caesar salad, vodka sauce pasta & chicken farm with a friend while in town. Dessert was a selection of cheesecake, chocolate cake and cannoli. Good service. Food temps could have been hotter on the chicken part. Next to our hotel.

Greta staff, solid food, great value for brunch

It's a nice place, but the food was a little off. Maybe it was that night Ambiance was great. Nice decor, clean, Italian music, great atmosphere. The service was great. Very attentive, and quick to get our orders. The sauce. I hate to say this, but the sauce tasted like ketchup. Also, I ordered seafood pasta, and when I took the first bite, it was very clear that the seafood was not fresh. If I swallowed just that one bite, I would have been visiting the porcelain altar for a while afterward. That said, they took the order back immediately, and got me a different dish, eggplant parm. That was better, but admittedly the sauce was still not fantastic. Overall, I had an average experience there. But my girlfriend did very much enjoy everything. She was happy. I would say 3 1/2 to 4 stars. Again, the service was great.

I first encountered Harry's last year during a brief dalliance with MealPal (a pre-paid subscription plan where you can order specific lunches throughout the week at certain establishments - definitely worth a look if you're working in the city consistently). They had a Penne Vodka lunch option that I grabbed one or two times for pickup. It looked like a decent Italian place, a bit hidden in the depths of the Financial District, and yesterday seemed like a good opportunity for a sit-down visit. If it hadn't been close to 100 degrees, I would have taken advantage of the pleasant outdoor seating section, which would have provided viewpoints of a pretty gentrified neighborhood. This is an area that's typically a bit congested with narrower streets than other parts of the islands, but this block actually has some space to work with. I stopped by around 1:30PM for a solo meal. If you're one of those people who is reluctant to go to a restaurant in the city by yourself, the chances are EXCELLENT that you will get amazing, primo service. I literally am batting close to 1.000 with this. I'm positive the restaurants are super nervous because by definition you have no one to talk to while you wait for your food. Their worry is your gain. It's a nice-looking place; you're probably a five-minute walk or so from the Seaport so there IS a bit of a touristy vibe here but nothing over the top - and for what it's worth, the vast majority of patrons I saw were clearly there on their lunch break like me. I perused the menu beforehand and settled on the lunch portion of the Gnocchi w/ Tomato & Basil ($16). I was provided with a free bread/oil combo to munch on while I waited, but the entrée showed up literally in less than five minutes. The bread was just okay - it's room temperature and honestly a little stale. I still had a pretty significant portion to consume once I finished the gnocchi, and I dipped it in the sauce rather than the oil, which tells you something. But it was still nice to have. The Gnocchi was solid - it WAS the lunch serving but it was a perfect portion for someone who accidentally had a cookie earlier. Have I had better versions of this? Yes; my all-time favorite is probably at E&V in Paterson, NJ, which has a melted cheese component that would have spiffed this up a bit, in my opinion. But it was good. I have a texture-based palate so I was a little suspicious at the thickness of the sauce, but it didn't cross the line for me - no giant chunks of tomato or onions to get me riled up. And the gnocchi itself was exactly the right consistency. I'd describe this as "mainstream" Italian - it doesn't have a homey, old school tablecloth feel but it delivers an above average pasta dish at least. And if you're a solo diner on a schedule, you can easily be out of here in less than half an hour.

It was fantastic food! And it was our first meal in New York! Only thing we didn’t like was the fact it was 80 degrees inside. Maybe it was just because we are used to cooler temps coming from the PNW.

Pretty good pizza but WAYYYY overpriced for the quality you get if you ask me

Nice Restaurant in the heart of downtown. Really good food and friendly stuff. Some are not capable of using foreign Debit Cards. Possible to sit outside.

Decent high-end Italian spot. Good service and decent beer selection. We shared an assortment of appetizers. My favorites in this order were: -the oven-baked wings ( great flavor, fall off the bone) -side of sausage -side of meatballs I also got a Orecchiette Rabe n Sausage, which was a nice serving size for the price. The only thing I didn't care for much was the baked clams as they were too much bread crumbs, and overcooked. Bathroom was also interesting, but good thing I didn't really need it.

The old fashioned pizza was amazing! Usually not a fan of take out but we ordered this after a really long day and had it ready for pickup within 25 minutes. It was delicious, perfectly crispy yet chewy. Would highly recommend

This was my second time eating here and the place has a cool atmosphere along with a pleasant staff. The food is really good but a bit pricey if you're not careful. I can also see the bar being a good spot to stop-in grab pizza, appetizer or a dish and a draft or two.

We ended up at Harry’s Italian on a Saturday night — mostly for practical reasons — and it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Sometimes the unplanned meals are the best ones. We ordered penne with meat sauce and a Pizza Margherita, and both dishes were hearty and flavorful. If anything, there was a bit too much meat sauce, but that’s hardly a complaint when the food tastes this good. The portions were generous, the service friendly, and the atmosphere relaxed — a nice break from the hustle of downtown Manhattan. It was also one of the more reasonably priced dinners we had during the trip, which made it taste even better. A solid, satisfying Italian spot that delivers great value for money.

jocelyn vickers

The food was good but it was a bit pricey. I ordered the shrimp parm and added chicken with pasta and it was a whopping $40..I ordered a Ceasars salad $12 and soda water (preferably from the bar) but he brought me a bottle of pellegrino $8..they added a 4% ($2+) surcharge on top of the bill for using a credit card. So for my meal plus tip $77..My Sis ordered the square pizza with sausage and a lunch portion of shrimp and asparagus, glass of Moscato and her bill was almost $65 not including surcharge and tip. The pizza was very good but needed more sauce as well as the asparagus dish. So if ur cool with pricing then u won't be disappointed with the taste. Also, there was an unsanitary thing that happened...they brought out my sis pizza-and she went to grab a piece and lifted it to put on her plate until we noticed toppings she ain't ask for...and they brought out my dish to which I began to take pictures and noticed no shrimp..the waiter came over and said we had the wrong orders..to which he took the two dishes and proceeded to give to right customers sitting behind us..he should have really took those dishes back to kitchen to remake since we literally salivated over the plates for a couple of minutes.

Carl Reviews

Very friendly service. Food was served quickly and was hot. Good sized portions. I had lasagne but I am not a fan of pork mince so not to my taste. We also had the plain cheesecake which needed a touch of fruit syrup as it was a little dry

Sharmone “2Carry-onsNoDestination” Edwards

Service was excellent 👌 being from out of town, our original dinner plans were changed so we picked this place by reviews. Our waiter was so helpful since we really weren't sure what we wanted and was happy to share recommendations. Drinks were strong and you got, what you paid for. Chicken Marsala was really good. The portions are large and my husband and myself shared meal.

This is a great Italian restaurant for lunch or dinner. Pizza is very good and the baked clams could be the best downtown. It's worth checking out. Only problem we had was the drinks were not as strong as we liked. Other than that a good Italian restaurant downtown reasonably priced.

Calami was chewy and overcooked. We ordered a square pizza with sausage and broccoli rabe it was very good.

Decent Italian cuisine with big portions!

+1

First visit to this place. We enjoyed it. More people will if they are interested in Italian food.

I just moved to the area, went to Harry's based on local reviews. They have a huge 8'x5' white board with daily specials. Those specials don't exist. They have an extensive beer list, they just don't keep them in stock. I would say that the food we had, the salad and bread was the best. The stuffed shells were bland and the vodka penne pasta was slightly undercooked. We probably left 75% of our main entrees uneaten. We elected to not get a doggie bag. For being in NYC, I would expect more. I would expect an olive garden would serve more authentic, better tasting Italian food in a flyover state.

So food is not as bad as a lot of customers say. After eating here and its other location, I think anything from oven like pizza, shells, and lasagna are good. Not sure how one customer think they microwave the lasagna because this was piping hot good. Pasta is eat at your own risk because I had spaghetti and meatballs once and it was lukewarm and tomato sauce very bitter. In any case, very average fare and no happy hour either. But out of 3 Italian places in this corner, I wud come back here because very spacious and large bar. I also like the somewhat large draft beer selection. Somewhat dead on a Friday night but that’s not a bad thing.

It smells like a urinal that was just cleaned. And the brokers talking around you is especially infuriating. I wouldn't come here if it was my first time. There are so many better places

Thursday mid afternoon easily able to get a table. Service was good started with the portobello salad and created.our own pizza. Pizza was good little dry I need a side of marinara sauce. A half pizza is good for 2 people had leftovers which was great for a late evening snack.

Well, that was underwhelming. Not to be confused with other Harrys in NYC. Eked out 3 stars at best for food, top notch service couldn't cover up the below-average food. Did the chef take a night off? Starting out with one of the worst Sangrias I've ever had, some flavored drink with a splash of red wine, no fruit or taste that it's ever seen fruit, sans the thin slice of orange hastily added on top. Next up, while no fault of the well-cooked thin spaghetti, the meatballs lacked taste and had to be rescued by copious amounts of salt, pepper and potted parmesan cheese. I did discover that Broccoli Rabe was really an odd combo of broccoli, chinese broccoli, and spinach. Or so it tasted - you have been warned.

Brandon Churchman

Chicken marsala I came to NYC hoping for good food, left a bit disappointed, granted it was "winter storm fern" That being said I have made chicken marsala myself which was much better than this water noodle mess. The staff however are friendly and attentive.

Stayed in the financial district and was looking for some decent quick Italian food. Had never been to Harry’s but the reviews seemed good enough. I wasn’t expecting grandmothers homemade lasagna. But I couldn’t even tell you that this was decent. It was honestly probably just sitting back there and was reheated. It had a stale tasting texture, the meat wasn’t seasoned, and the sauce tasted like it came straight out of a can. I was really disappointed. Maybe I should have stuck with pizza because it seemed like that was the more popular dish.

Food was overpriced and quality was awful, meatballs and spaghetti tasted like it came from a can. The 'Chicken Godzilla' was "destroyed" with a mountain of chopped tomato and raw onion. Very disappointing.

Incredibly over priced for what you get. We got one full sized pizza (four seasons pizza) and a small dinky Caesar salad which was quite literally two handfuls of Roman lettuce with a few croutons and a pinch of powder parmesan cheese for $60. Not good enough to pay too dollar for.

It was a favorite place in Fidi. Harry's has been going downhill for a year now. Today I got very undercooked or overcooked (it was hard to determine) meatballs and reheated chicken godzilla. The bread was stale too. It would be one star, but they get plus one for the way they use to be. Oh, and they didn't seem to care about the bad food.

The lasagna was noticeably colder and denser inside than outside - most probably out of fridge, if not freezer, and then microwaved. A 4% charge out of nowhere, never mentioned until the very last line on the check. The wine and service were alright. So drop by only to have a drink and pay cash. Eat elsewhere

We arrived 1.25 hours before closing and the employees were busy eating their own food and said they were closing early and only taking to go. We walked in the cold/snow to get there and were very disappointed. Employees were rude.

Carbo loading the night before the 2025 marathon led us to Harry's Italian, a short walk from our hotel. Both my daughter (the runner) and husband ordered the spaghetti based on reviews and did not find them "amazing" or otherwise noteworthy. I make it better at home. I ordered the calamari and it was cooked but not crisp. They were out of the local beer my husband ordered. Service was slow, a reflection of the volume of customers and the shortage of staff. Our poor server was handling a lot of tables. Would not visit again.

So the bartender here wrote in his own tip after my visit on June 11th, 2024. He was on his cell phone or in the back somewhere the majority of my time at the restaurant. The bartender wasn't rude, but he also wasn't pleasant. I did not think that my experience or the service was tip worthy. Additionally, I did not appreciate being charged an extra 3% for using my card to pay. This is a felony crime and fraudulent behavior.

I have seldom had bad food but this is definately the worst one.

This has to be the absolute worst dining experience I've ever had. The so-called "marinara" sauce tasted like a diluted version of Chef Boyardee, leaving me with a stomachache. The service was abysmal. Our waitress, a short-haired, glasses woman, was incredibly rude and showed no urgency in taking our order or bringing our check. Honestly, I was tempted to just walk out due to the appalling service. We didn't leave a tip because, frankly, the service was atrocious. To add insult to injury, we discovered that the restaurant had the audacity to charge us a $20 tip on top of our bill. I demand a refund, and frankly, that employee should be dismissed for what amounts to fraud and theft. I strongly advise against dining here unless you're willing to be swindled.

I went there to order takeout. The food quality had be waning over the past few years, but I gave it a try. I ordered linguine with clams, calamari and broccoli rabe. First of all the linguine was dry and had no taste, plus the clams ( not fresh, were sparse). Tasted awful. The calamari was dried out and tasteless. Finally the broccoli rabe was bland with no olive oil. Basically the food was atrocious and inedible The staff didn’t care about the food or service. This place should go out of business ( manager admitted they were hurting) It is a shame as it once was a halfway decent place to eat

The food is not rly good, at all. The calamari was suspicious, very fishy, but not in a good way. The pastas are passable at points, and other times quite disappointing. The service is okay, at least the waiters were nice. Wouldn't really recommend overall.

Unfortunately our worst food experience in NY. Around the corner from our rented apartment (we kept passing by it and it looked busy and interesting). Our experience was not. My pasta dish wasn’t edible, the pasta was not cooked, or pre-cooked or tried to refresh, it was terrible. The sauce and plate was oily and gross. It came with asparagus and potatoes? I wasn’t sure what this dish was supposed to be. I tried but it was a pass. My boyfriends sandwich he ate half of? But left the rest. The bruschetta I forgot to take a pic of but was a dismal 3 tiny pieces of crust with tomatoes for $11. The waiter failed to ask how dinner was but I told him I couldn’t eat it. He kindly removed it from the bill. All in all a terrible experience.

I wanted the food here to be good and was excited to come. I am leaving disappointed. I had a Caesar salad instead of a mixed greens salad because they do not carry ranch dressing. Not a bother. My main course was chicken francese with fettuccini. There was no option to swap in alfredo sauce for the pasta and unfortunately the sauce it came with was no good. It was very watery and lacked flavor. If there was no pepper, parmesan, or red chili flakes on the pasta or chicken bites then there was no flavor aside from a faint hint of oil. The portions are very large but will require some doctoring up.

I gave this place one star because one star is the lowest score possible. I want to give a negative score if I can. I normally don't comment online unless it is really truly beyond my expectations, for better or worse. My family picked this restaurant and wanted to try something new. It turned out to be a real disaster. We found out that the food was pricey so we did not order much. We ordered a full pizza, pasta, and two other dishes. I thought these might not be enough when ordering because it was late and we were hungry.. At the end, we left almost half of the food. The pizza was burnt. It was too hard to chow. The pasta was raw. It sticked on my teeth. Other two items were very salty. That is not all yet. We were thirsty because the pizza was too hard and other dishes were salty. I asked for water several times . But the waitress totally ignored me. I had to get water myself. There was only another table of customers besides us. So she was not busy at all. Also she never came to us to ask if we needed anything. The more outrageous scene happened at the end. I asked them if they have a discount if I pay cash. They said yes, they have a 4% discount if I pay cash. So I paid cash. Just as you imagined, there was no discount at all. The explanation was that they charge 4% more if I pay by credit card. And they did not charge me 4% surcharge since I paid cash. So they called it a 4% discount. More over, they kept 20% gratuity without permission from customer. When they gave me back my change, they kept 20% themselves. And that 20% was calculated base on the total bill after tax. I asked them why they kept 20% tips when there was no service at all. I precisely pointed out that I asked for water several times and had to got water twice myself. The waitress kept saying they just charge 20% tips repeatedly. I said I will remember your restaurant next time I come to New York. Surprisingly she said " I will remember you ". So that is the story. We got charged 20% tips with no service at all and left hungry. I think the waitress got that attitude because she knew she would get 20%tips no matter what. For these who are reading, turn around and go somewhere else or same thing will happen to you. You don't have to bear with that.

The most disgusting food I’ve tried in NY. Those foods are not definitely home made. Disgusting sauce, pasta, mushrooms and meatballs. Thank you for your disgusting food. I gave it a try since it was close to four point hotel. DO NOT TRY

Summary: if you want to waste your money and get sick buy the very noticeable microwaved lasagna and the spaghetti shrimp marinara. Don’t usually leave reviews but… here we are :) We chose this restaurant because it was very close from where we were heading to, and who doesn’t love good Italian food, we read the reviews and thought the place was good. We got there, there were few people, so good sign right? Waiter was nice, asked if we had any questions about the menu etc. We got two dishes the lagsana and spaghetti shrimp marinara. Both dishes when they came looked alright, but we ended up no eating the whole dish. The shrimp spaghetti dish: the shrimp noticeably came out of the frozen bag, plain spaghetti, and seemed like they just put the tomato sauce from a can. 0/10, flavorless. The lasagna was the worst one, meat tasted old, and looked like just came from the freezer and was put on the microwave. -100/10, same as the spaghetti, the tomato sauce was like out of the can, the only fresh thing was the parsley and cheese on top but the whole thing tasted terrible. Even college food tastes better. We then got the check and we didn’t read the bad reviews so we found out about the magic 4% if you use credit card. Lucky we had cash, the bill ended up being about 54 ish plus tax, for two dishes and 2 sodas. We didn’t send the food back, we took the L today but… Never again, but good luck! :) PS: Our waiter was nice and service was acceptable but the food was so bad our experience was overall one star. Negative if we could put it.
