- MMichelleNew York City •51 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoI live in NYC and eat out often. This restaurant had the most attentive service I have ever experienced. I was waiting at the bar for my friend. I was approached three times by wait staff and the manager to ask if I needed water or anything. This was done in a kind and respectful way - not a ‘move along and order something or leave’ manner. Attentive service continued once we were seated. Food was delicious. Next time I’m in the Village, this is my go-to.More infoOlio e PiùPrice: Moderate• Italian• West Village•4.8

- TToddNew York City •5 reviews5.0Dined on Jan 4, 2025My wife and I celebrated our wedding anniversary at Risotteria Melotti. We chose the restaurant based on our long personal history with "Risotteria" the restaurant located in the Village (now closed). Melotti checked all the boxes. It was amazing. My wife has Celiac, and is very sensitive to cross contamination, so Melotti is perfect. It should be listed on more Gluten Free sites. The food was amazing. The restaurant is tiny and awesome. My wife took photos of the drawers on the walls that are used as picture frames & shelves. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone. And if you are a Celiac, eat here as often as you can.More infoRisotteria MelottiPrice: Expensive• Italian• East Village•4.7
