Nice outdoors spot. Gnocchi is incredible. The have a great non alcoholic IPA that I loved. Great service. Rain started coming down they immediately helped us. A bit pricey aure, but well worth it.

Awesome experience!! Background music was great, service was awesome!! Foods were flavorful, light sauces but delicious. Place was clean and inviting with a garden setting outside. They even served my bday hubby a complimentary tiramisu with a candle.

We shared a lot of plates here. the salads and octopus were outstanding. The fish dish was very good as well as all the pastas. Drinks were all excellent..nothing but high praise for Aurora !

Lovelt atmosphere and excellent service!! The food was light just the right portion. Super delicious. I had the watermelon gazpacho and my best friend had the scallops which were perfect.

Highly recommend! Great quality of food and great vibes. It would be more expensive when this restaurant was located in NYC but thank God, it’s in Brooklyn so you can get to taste a great Italian - cheaper price and great atmosphere! Even in the winter, the outdoor seating was warm enough to enjoy the meal!

Probably one of the best places I have had dinner !!! I recommend every dish that I try !! They are as good as they look in the pictures !!! Cocktail was amazing and dessert was was extremely good !! I will definitely come back to try brunch !! Service was very good to

Overall rating: 4.6 I’ve been wanting to go here for awhile but I’m rarely this far west in Williamsburg. I walked by once and absolutely fell in love with the plant wall. I went for brunch and got these delicious French Toast. Service and food was fine. But! I somehow lost my wallet soon after in the day and I was so concerned. When I called the restaurant after just by pure chance, they said they didn’t see it. Later that week, I was about to give up and call my banks when the restaurant called me again. I just thought that was so nice of them explaining how they found it. And I was able to get it that day. I had some foccacio and tiramisu that was so good! It was kinda interesting how the bar area feels different than the outside. This seems like a nice group brunch spot with friends. I would recommend giving it a try!

Mickey provided top notch bar service. Knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate. The food was great, rotating specials, and great wine selection. Enjoyed the octopus/arancini and had gelato house made for dessert. The host/manager watching the host stand was pretty rude but didn’t let it kill the vibe, phrase of the night “whatever you want man”, as a response to simple questions. Can’t check all the boxes, but would definitely come back for the outstanding food and bar service!

Went for a group dinner and the service was awesome. Food was great as well. The gnocchi was so good but so was the other pasta dishes. I loved the arancini too.

My girlfriend and I went here for Valentine's day. The outdoor heaters worked very well, and the entire staff that waited on us were extremely friendly. Our server, Antonio was a particular pleasure and was extremely attentive to our needs. This food was nothing short of absolutely amazing. We started with the calamari and risotto croquettes. The croquettes were extremely well made and the calamari was tender and very fresh. For entree we had the gnocchi carbonara and pappardelle bolognese. Nothing was too rich or filling and portioned perfectly. Everything tasted absolutely phenomenal. All the flavors were in perfect balance and I am currently craving more. We shared a tiramisu to end the night which was the best way we could have imagined finishing. The corkage fee was also more than reasonable. Have a meal here as soon as you can! You will remember it for a long time to come guaranteed!

A great bar. We didn't eat but the Domino drinks were spot on delicious. The bartender was great and friendly. So was the host. Neat atmosphere. Right in the heart of Williamsburg but also close to the water. Check them out, Tell 'em Barsnobs sent ya!

One of the best carbonaras I’ve had in NYC! Beautiful venue, professional service, and overall wonderful brunch. Can’t wait to be back for another round!

Lots of great Italian in New York but our group absolutely loved our experience here. Super cozy spot and a great menu. All pasta are made in house and you can really taste the difference. No shortage of wine either! Love how they organize the menu by the Italian regions. This place will not disappoint!

I first visited this restaurant with co-workers for a team lunch and I've been obsessed since. I was able to finally go back for my bday dinner. This place don't miss..like ever..at all. Amazing Italian food. 🙌🏾

In addition to being a great restaurant, Aurora is an absolutely PERFECT wedding spot, such an intimate space and one of a kind location. We photographed a wedding here in late 2019 and we're still obsessed. The staff and food were incredible, wishing every event was like this. Stunning space and one of our favorite Brooklyn restaurants.

Food and drinks were great. The calamari was fried well. The tomato and basil app was tasty. The pasta dish with oxtail absolutely a hit.

+6

Really solid Italian eatery with great ambiance and fresh ingredients. Make sure you try the chocolate cake for desert; didn’t expect to have some of the best desert I’ve ever had.

We recently hosted our wedding at Aurora and couldn't be happier with how it turned out! It's the perfect venue for an intimate, romantic but low-key wedding in New York City. Many of our guests told us it was the best wedding food they'd ever had, and several commented on the quality of the service they received. They handled food allergies incredibly well, despite it being a 'family style' menu. The staff also went above and beyond to quickly 'winterize' the mixed indoor/outdoor space in the 48 hours before the wedding since we happened to get married during a tropical storm! We really can't thank the Aurora team enough! They are truly the best.

Honestly stubbled here when we were looking for a good brunch spot and ended up eyeing the drinks. And it was an amazing surprised! The staff was super sweet and chatted us up about local concerts after hearing our plans to see a show near by. The food was delicious and the French toast is a recommend and drinks were amazing as well. Super tasty.

I recently dined at Aurora and had an amazing experience. From the moment I walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the tone for the evening. The decor perfectly blends modern elegance with cozy elements, making it ideal for both intimate dinners and lively gatherings. Our server, Antonio, truly elevated our experience. His attentiveness and genuine enthusiasm for the menu were recognizable. He took the time to explain the specials and make personalized recommendations, showcasing his knowledge of the food and drink offerings. Antonio's hospitality made us feel not just like customers, but like valued guests. It's rare to find a server who balances professionalism with such a personable touch and on top the food was amazing!

This restaurant is a true culinary haven in New York! From the moment we tasted the ravioli, risotto, octopus, and potatoes, we knew we had stumbled upon something extraordinary. Each dish was a symphony of flavors that transported us to a heavenly food experience. I can't recommend this place highly enough. And let's not forget the desserts - the tiramisu and chocolate cake were divine! A must-visit for any food lover!

Incredibly romantic vibes and even better food. My date and I split the fried calamari and rib-eye for two. Our original server never came back to our table after our initial order. Ever noticed and took over. He even gave us 2 steaks because the cuts left were a little small to share just 1. Ever was wonderful and the manager was so warm and friendly. After, the restaurant staff comped us two desserts: afogado and tiramisu. Thank you for a lovely Valentine’s! Definitely recommend this for a date.

My second time in Aurora. The food is always delicious. We got the calamari with shrimp. The pasta with pepper and cheese and the hanger steak from the special menu. The calamari and shrimp is tasty and delicious not too salty perfectly cooked. The homemade pasta is also delicious super cream and not too much pepper. I can’t remember the steak I got but it was perfectly cooked and tasty. Overall, I will always come back for this place. Also try their fruit soda it’s delicious !!!! Ambiance is amazing !

Hands down one of the best restaurants in Williamsburg and frankly, New York City. The food is absolutely authentic, fresh, delicious and executed with care, attention to details, and love. The place is simply stunning, cozy and classy, decorated with taste and perfect for any kind of event, from a romantic date to a family dinner. Impeccable service, attentive, courteous and professional and a beautiful selection of wines, including a marvelous Pecorino from Chieti that we really enjoyed. I couldn't recommend this place more.

Eight of us came here for brunch on a Sunday and really enjoyed the place. We had a reservation, but with a smaller group you may be able to go without calling in ahead of time. They have a covered outdoors area, which will be beautiful in the summer. Overall solid brunch spot

We ate on the enclosed side patio. Very beautiful secret garden like. The inside was just as beautiful with lots of old wood and brick. The food was just perfect.

We had our wedding in the garden at Aurora and it was truly magical! It was on a Friday afternoon with an intimate casual ceremony and a lunch following. Aurora has been a long time family favorite for us, so it was so special to have our wedding there. The Aurora staff was super helpful in crafting our menu and helping us plan the layout and flow of the event. All of the food and cocktails were AMAZING, the space was gorgeous, and overall it provided the perfect vibe for what we were looking for. Thank you so much Aurora!

Everything was lovely, from the food to the ambiance to the service. We ate brunch here and loved it. The french toast and eggs benedict were delicious. 100% recommend for weekend brunch !

Came here yesterday and I have the best experience with the staff, food was priced reasonably and very tasty ! I would definetly come back here again. The menu was very diverse! Atmosphere was warm and cozy.

Love the outdoor area and the local Italian beers. The squid ink paccheri was very good and the branzino was also a must try. We also got the burger, which was a bit disappointing but make sense for a Italian restaurant. Note to take - order any seafood and avoid burger you won’t regret this trip!

Had an amazing brunch here. They were super accommodating for a large group to celebrate a special event to sit on the patio. Drinks were fantastic but the food was even better. All the different pastas, steak and eggs, and bennys rocked. Espresso martini was really good made with the right ingredients if that’s your thing! Hope to come back for dinner sometime.

Amazing spot for brunch! Food was delicious - we had the French toast (amazing) and the eggs in purgatory. Delicious and well balanced plates. Lots of greenery in the back patio and good playlist while you dine. Loved coming here and will be back soon!

Everything I had was delish! Place has a romantic/ rustic vibe. Staff super friendly. Octopus and pasta were amazing and tho dessert was a cheesecake .. it was super light!

+6

We're not reviewing the good looking restaurant, but rather the café's street ice cream stand. This is an absolute insider tip in NYC for incredibly delicious ice cream. The very friendly young lady recommended the perfect flavor mix, and we had the best ice cream in the city. Highly recommended!

This Italian spot is my favorite! The place is adorable and the atmosphere always hits just right - it's cozy but not too loud. You can't mess up ordering here - everything on the menu is great! I'm always super happy when I leave. The staff are always super nice and make the experience even better. Highly recommended!

Did a timeleft dinner hear. The food was incredible. I had a gluten free beef oxtail pasta. I'm still thinking about it days later. They need better hot sauce on the side though.

Great Italian place. Perfect for brunch. We visited twice and the food was really good, nice verity of meat/fish/vegetarian choices. The staff are really friendly and the coffee is good. Love their garden which available all around the year for seating and feeling warm even through winter time.

+5

Consistently well executed and delicious Italian fare. Every dish hits but, the pappardelle bolognese, chicken mattone, and tiramisu are always favorites. Don’t skip their seasonal special salads. Rustic-chic dining room and charming ivy-lined heated/covered outdoor dining area - are a magical place to host a wedding or celebration - or the perfect date spot - or are really perfect for just about any occasion.

Super lovely and beautiful space with great service! The food is DIVINE! We had the fried calamari and seafood appetizers which were excellent but the gazpacho stole my heart! For our mains We Loved the squid ink pasta, the chilled organic red wine, and the lunch special sea bass!

Good was really delicious. Cacio e Pepe was fire. The carrots were actually my favorite thing. Fried Calamari was also quite divine.

Tastes amazing. Good atmosphere. Got the clam pasta and mushroom ravioli. Clam pasta was acidic and really good. Ravioli very rich but in a good way and delicious mushrooms. Highly recommend. Bread was great too!

The place was filled with people- not a bad thing on a Friday night. Hospitality was great! We were greeted when we walked through the doors. Told them we had a reservation for Two. Someone sat us immediately! No wait time. Our waiter was great! He was punctual with everything- and he multi task amazingly with all is customers. He deserves the moon lol. The wait time on the food was no more than Ten mins. The food was delicious! Take it from me- I’m a very picky person. I rate the food 10/10. Everything is literally reasonable priced and the tip. You decide what to give. Your waiter brings the hand held device to your table for you to pay. The lighting in the restaurant is very pleasant. I would definitely go back and I live in Staten Island. There’s Two single restrooms. One person at a time. Yes, the restrooms are clean. If I steer you wrong- come back here and give me a thumb down. I hope you enjoy like I did.

I stopped by Aurora late in the evening just for coffee and dessert with my boyfriend, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our night. The moment I walked in, I felt like I had stepped into a quiet corner of Italy. The ambiance was warm and cozy, and our waiter - who was even Italian - just added to the charm and authenticity of the experience. The service was genuinely kind and attentive, and the chocolate cake was incredible —rich, decadent, and perfectly paired with a smooth espresso and fresh gelato. Even though I only came for a quick bite, it left such a lasting impression that I can't wait to return for a full meal. Thank you to the team at Aurora for making this such a wonderful and memorable experience! Strong customer service really does go a long way.

The food was so good, been there 3 weeks ago and still can't stop thinking about it. We were a party of 4 and everyone ordered something else, everything was delicious.

Had an enjoyable dinner here with my girlfriend. No wait on a walk-in. They were accommodating for my peanut allergy. Tasty red wine and pasta.

I thoroughly enjoyed Aurora’s squid ink pasta with crab meat, so I decided to return to try the updated menu. The appetizers were excellent, especially the peaches and tomato gazpacho special. The Cavatelli Saffron was perfectly balanced, featuring al dente pasta and flavorful rock shrimp. However, the wild black bass filet was a bit undersalted, making some bites bland unless paired with the sauce or lemon. We ended with the Affogato Gelato, which was the perfect conclusion to our meal. The overall ambiance was great, though it started pouring midway through our meal, and the service was somewhat slow in moving guests indoors from the uncovered outdoor area.

I had a great experience here! The place has a lovely atmosphere, and the food was absolutely delicious. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a nice spot with really good food!

Intimate, solid service, great selections. Was a godsend when we needed a late meal.

I did a last minute dinner with a visiting friend last week, and as always just the most solid dinner/meal here after I’ve eaten here for literally years whenever I’m in the neighborhood! The host/manager CJ was super helpful and let my friend who arrived first, sit first without a reservation and he helped me upon arriving too. We were able to get a nice walk in table just before the rush, service was great and we weren’t rushed yet weren’t left hanging. Delicious apps, and fish and roasted chicken mains for us and great non-alcoholic, cocktails and wine selections. I plan to keep coming here for years to come! I always appreciate a meal and the service at Aurora! 🫶🏽

Looking for a nice date night vibe, then Dont look any further. This place is chill and food is def top-notch! It was so good, I forgot to take pictures. The craft drinks are super tasty. We had the halibut and the farm steak (not the right names but you'll see it when you get here), very delicious and fresh. The chocolate cake for the dessert with the pistachio gelato… WHAT? Off the hook. Our new monthly date night spot

Pasta was cooked perfectly. Our group ordered four kinds of pasta and all so delicious Steak was tender with a nice char. Squash blossom and arancini was incredible.

This place is spot on in every way. Great outdoor seating. Service was incredible, our server - Juan - was prompt, professional and precise. The food was incredible!!! Asparagus with truffle and hazelnut was mouth watering. The spaghetti with pesto was THE BEST PESTO EVER!!! So tasty, so creamy, so fresh so freaking good!!! So freaking good!!! Best pesto ever. Did I mention the pesto here was super tasty? The steak with mushroom and greens was tasty but honestly the pesto blew my mind. I'll be back soon Aurora. Thanks for all the things :)

I have been going here for years. just had a juicy medium steak at the bar with an Old Fashioned before and a Manhattan during. The standard has not changed a bit! Delicious food that gets you between this magical area of full and satisfied, and the drinks are amazing!

What a beautiful experience at Aurora in Brooklyn. The pasta was absolutely spectacular , rich, perfectly balanced, and full of authentic Italian flavor. The risotto was equally impressive, creamy and refined, cooked to perfection. The kale salad was fantastic , fresh, vibrant, and beautifully prepared. And the dessert… the chocolate cake paired with their homemade ice cream was simply unforgettable. We also enjoyed a lovely selection of Italian wines that complemented every course beautifully. The cozy ambiance made the entire evening feel warm and intimate. A special thank you to Antonio for his attentive and gracious service , he made the evening even more special. Highly recommend for an authentic , innovative and elevated Italian dining experience in Brooklyn.

Most incredible gnocchi I’ve ever had. This is coming from someone who makes their own. Light, delicious and flavors that are insanely addictive. I didn’t want it to be done. The Berkshire pork chop also amazing but my bf ate it so fast I only got one bite. I will certainly be back. One of the best meals I’ve had the honor to taste. Bravo great work

Soren Gordon

SO UNBELIEVABLY GOOD. Food is amazing and every single member of the staff is friendly, hospitable, and helpful!! The prosciutto de Parma is one of the best dishes I've had in my whole life and it was so good we came back two days in a row on a short weekend trip for it. Would absolutely recommend and will be returning every time I'm in NYC

Violet E

This place is simply phenomenal. I went for the first time over a year ago, and have been dreaming about their proscuitto di parma (aged 24 months and then placed on a tomato crustini) ever since. I went back yesterday, and it was just as good. I can’t express enough how amazing this place is, and the service was wonderful. All the servers are friendly and helpful, and were willing to accommodate our quick turn-around time of 30 minutes on a busy weekend. I’ve tried a ton of italian food in NYC, and this place is hands down my favorite. The pasta is handmade and the desserts & drinks are also excellent. I honestly don’t have a bad thing to say about it - we went back two days in a row because the proscuitto bruschetta was so amazing. THANK YOU TO ALL THE STAFF AND CHEFS AT AURORA.

Cynthia Molina

My family was there for New Year's Day brunch. Staff was courteous and friendly. Though they had a lot of customers, everyone's conversations were respectfully low. Some restaurants I've been to I would need to raise my voice from across the table. I hate that. Our waitress, Susie, was terrific. Very professional, friendly and helpful. Though not at all intrusive, Susie would check our table to see if we needed anything. The food and dessert were excellent. This was our first visit here. We will definitely be returning.

Amanda Domb

The food here is SO good. We got the mushroom arranchini and radicchio salad with pomegranates, apples and ricotta to share for the table and both were absolutely delicious. The oxtail pappardelle was also amazing. Our server, Jacques, was so kind and even offered to split checks for our large group. He provided great service and was so patient with our indecisive and large group. Place was decorated beautifully!

John Segnor

Wow! What an amazing place! Came here for birthday dinner and ordered the Radicchio as an appetizer. Cacio e Pepe for entree. Both were just perfection. I don’t have a very hard to please palette but when I have quality food, it’s easy to tell it’s been made with intention and skill. Come here!

Beckmoi

This place is a gem! Rustic and cozy. Wonderful ambiance and excellent service by Antonio, our server, and CJ, the manager, who welcomed us like family. We truly felt like we were home, which was nice because we were celebrating a pre-wedding family dinner. The food was wonderful and delicious. We started with a few appetizers to share and most of us got pasta entrées but some also ordered the steak, the pork, and risotto with wine overflowing to multiple toasts of course! We finished with an array of desserts that was a perfect finish to a perfect meal.

Aurora is one of those rare gems that perfectly balances atmosphere, hospitality, and unforgettable cuisine. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the cool Brooklyn vibe. We stopped there before the Brooklyn horror fest for dinner. The staff is phenomenal, genuinely friendly, SO attentive and clearly passionate about what they do. Every interaction feels personal, and it’s obvious they take pride in creating an experience, not just serving a meal. And the food? Absolutely mouthwatering! Every dish bursts with flavor! The kind of food that makes you pause mid-bite to moan with delight just to thoroughly appreciate it! We had the most tender melt in your mouth, brisket the delicious gnocchi, and the most incredible pork chop I’ve ever tasted in my life! Absolutely everything feels prepared with care and creativity. You can taste the quality in every bite. Aurora is more than just a restaurant… it’s a vibe, a memory, and a must-visit for anyone who loves great food in an inviting, stylish setting. Highly recommend for anyone looking to experience the best of Brooklyn dining! A++++++! Cool atmosphere. Wonderful staff. We loved Mickey! Unforgettable food. Aurora hits every note perfectly!

To say that I loved Aurora would be an understatement. Started at the bar with a cold water and a few suggestions. Here’s how it shook dow - - Prosciutto Burrata : amazing, the tomato bruschetta made it Cantabrian Anchovies: dark horse, bold choice - tasted like butter and the spicy calabrian spread was perfect Duck Lasagna: such a tastefully sized portion that im so glad I got it as a starter. Chicken Under a Brick: closed the night w a staple. Perfectly cooked and exactly what I wanted. (Don’t sleep on the side of broccolini btw) All in all- fantastic experience from start to end. Reminded me of the ACTUAL food I got in Italy.

This is a hidden gem in Williamsburg. I really liked their outdoor seating. Not many places offer outdoor seating with a calm atmosphere. All of the appetizers we tried were amazing. The arancini is a must! The chocolate cake was really good as well.

Came here on a date with my best friend. We had a great time. The waiter was very nice and gave us good suggestions. The appetizers are big so please be mindful. Domino park is right now the street for a nice summer stroll afterwards. Parking can get a little crazy in Williamsburg toward the evening. I will be back. The outside dinning experience is great if the weather agrees.

Aurora Brooklyn is a gem! The ambiance is warm and inviting, perfect for a date night or special gathering. Every dish we tried was fresh and flavorful—especially the pasta, which was outstanding. The staff is incredibly attentive and kind, making the entire experience seamless and memorable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for top-tier Italian food in Brooklyn. Will definitely be back!

We found Qurota ristorante by chance.Firstly we were attracted by this cute building. It is a traditional Italian restaurant, cuisine was so delicious.Great quality of ingredients, and I believe that they use Italian olive oil instead of other bad quality oil such as canola oil where most of the restaurants use. The staff is super friendly and professional. Neapolitan coffee is perfect with ice cream dessert. I really enjoy dining in this atmosphere! I strongly recommend you to go to this restaurant if you go to Brooklyn!

We had reservations for 7:30 and we got seated right away. We ordered the squid ink cavatelli, it was filled with flavor and tons of seafood. This was shared by two of us and it was enough. We also got the tiramisu- for our liking it had a bit too much coffee but it was a great sharing option. Overall, the best part was definitely the food, our kind waiter, the lighting, the mood. It was a great experience with great company!

We were able to get a last minute reservation for 6 people which was surprising and I’m so glad we were able to eat here. Everything was pretty much perfection. Our server was very friendly and attentive, the vibe was good and the food was amazing. All the plates were presented so nicely and the flavors were just what you wanted. I would recommend this place for a date night, small groups but probably not more than 6 people as the dining room isn’t that big, the same with the tables. A must try restaurant in williamsburgh.

Nice place with a cute atmosphere. Staff is great and let’s you relax without pressure to finish fast which is nice. Food was well cooked and had a ton of flavor and the pasta was portioned perfectly. They have a big wine selection and the waiter was knowledgeable and able to help pick up the perfect match. Lots of daily specials that are to die for! Good place for a special occasion dinner or just a classy night! Pretty much all of the dishes can be made gluten free and they also offer gluten free pasta, staff is knowledgeable about cross contamination and it’s safe for celiac people.

Good Italian spot! Their prosciutto was good, and the burrata ravioli was absolutely delicious. I don’t recommend the seafood pasta though. Their outdoor area is really cute.

I came in for Eggs Benedict with Crab however they too it out of the menu and added with trout instead of crab. My friend ordered smoked salmon with scrambled egg. It was a good meal, not my favorite since no crab. Trout had a smoky flavor. Overall, the staff is friendly however it’s really hard to get their attention and sometimes are very slow.

Food was okay, sauce wasn't hitting really hard. But service is great

The pasta was overall not super filling and nothing special. The overall vibe of the place would be the reason to come in. There’s indoor seating and a nice patio space. They also sell gelato directly on the street in the summer

We were here for the first time on a Friday night for an early dinner with my husband and liked the food and the ambience. Our server was great. We just moved to the neighborhood so we will definitely come back. I particularly enjoyed the cocktail “Grand Street”. It was surprising to learn that they do not serve bread and Branzino was dry for my taste but the steak was good; overall we enjoyed it.

This place was tasty. We had drinks and pasta entrees and the pasta was very fresh and cooked perfectly. My dish (the spinach paparedelle) looked kinda funny but it tasted a lot better than it looked. We went right as they opened for dinner service so our service experience wasn't the best. We were def ignored quite a lot, and I wasn't a huge fan of that. But I enjoyed our dishes.

This place was poppin on a Friday night! The main dining patio was full, so we sat in the enclosed area in front of the entrance. You had to have reservations, I believe. We ordered the fried calamari and shrimp, zucchini blossoms, and beet salad, for appetizers. For main entrees we ordered the arctic char, strip steak, squid ink pasta, and the bolognese pasta dish. For cocktails, we had the Domino, which was refreshing. I don't normally order drinks with tequila, but you couldn't even taste it. Everything tasted great, and wasn't too expensive. Sitting in the main dining patio would have been a nice ambience, but still, it was a great dining experience.

Our food actually took around 25 mins to come but they apologized and explained it was a busy night (wedding party) and compensated us for appies and dessert so I was very impressed. That's respectable service, for sure. Also they have a cute ice cream stand right outside for dessert!

This was a nice surprise as we just kind of chose from three pasta restaurants. The seasonal gnocchi was so delicious, I literally finished the sauce with a spoon. The blow fish risotto was also interesting, I wasn’t sure what to expect with blow fish but was pleasantly surprised. The olive oil cake and coffee were fresh. The only reason I took a star off is because while the interior is beautiful and cozy, we sat outside in the heated, enclosed garden (also beautiful) but there was a reversal dinner that was super loud. This caused the other tables around us to talk louder, for half of our meal we were loudly saying “what” at each other. Overall would definitely return, there were some other items on the menu I’d like to try. And added plus the staff was extremely kind and attentive

Although I'm giving it 4 stars, I do believe if I go back, I'll change it to 5. The food was good, the atmosphere was great, and the service was ok. In their defense, they were getting ready for a wedding that was happening 1 and a half hours after our reservation. We had the bunch menu and it had a good variety of options. We had, duck sausage, pasta, french toast, and a burger. The total came out to about 100 dollars. This was a very fair price considering it was for 2 people and we over ordered.

Food was nice, appetizers and main entrees. "Gentrified" place for sure. Calm. Stuff is alright. Seen only white workers there for some reason.

Can’t comment on the food but the cocktails were delicious. It’s a warm, dimly lit restaurant with romantic lighting. The garden looks beautiful for warm evenings although nobody was out there due to the excessive heat. Our server was efficient, although not especially warm. All of the food going out to other tables looked incredibly enticing so we would like to return for dinner.

Food was good. Not the best pasta I’ve ever had but decent. The olive oil cake came with a salted caramel ice cream, which was a little sweet for my taste. The bruschetta fig toast was good too, but the sweet, caramelised figs carried most of it. The boar pappardelle was good though.

Nice place with a lovely outdoor patio no doubt. Unfortunately, the food itself fell a bit short of expectations. The kale salad was way to hard and not properly prepared. The cacio e pepe , while tasty, came in a rather small portion for the price tag. Atmosphere and service are good, no complaints. Still with the place also failing to address my meal concerns not certain this will be a repeat go-to.

Came here on a weekend for lunch. The space is quite big so we probably didn’t need a reservation, but we booked one just in case. There was an Italian family sitting next to us chatting with the staff in Italian, which gave us the impression this might be a solid spot for Italian food. We ordered the squid ink cavatelli and the paccheri. The cavatelli was tasty, but the paccheri was disappointing—it came sitting in a pool of oil and was really under-seasoned. Just felt like it was missing something. We wanted to ask for some salt, but our server was hard to get hold of. Tried to get her attention a few times but no luck, and it took quite a while before she noticed us. Overall, a bit underwhelming given the vibe and the menu.

beautiful space but food is expensive, small, and not great. Much better meals available within a few blocks for the same price. That being said, it's a beautiful garden to have a drink in and th…

Drinks and cocktails were 👌. Appetizers were decent, grilled octopus was well seasoned and juicy. The main dishes were mostly dry though (sea bass, turkey). $83 per person prix fixe Thanksgiving brunch ... Food was over priced. Would consider going just for cocktails .

The menu is very limited and disappointing. If you are looking for red sauce and home cooking this is not the restaurant for you. The prices are higher than New York and the food does not justify it.…

This was probably one of the worst meals I have ever eaten - all the starters were incredibly salty, and the pasta was completely inedible. Thankfully they allowed us to send the pasta back, but we wish we’d sent the entire meal back! The waiters were nice of course, but would really not recommend the food.
